March...Not Too Much Madness

So I find myself in a really weird mood at the moment. It's one of those leave me alone I really don't want to deal with you moments. Yet this mood is not really geared towards anyone in particular. I don't know. I think I'm just in a funk right now. I mean I've got the munchies, but nothing in the apartment looks good.

Anyhoo, moving on. I've found that despite the lack of desired finances that work provides, it is otherwise great. I think I've been very blessed with the ability to get along and fit in with just about anyone or group. My new co-workers have been really welcoming. I don't find myself completely stressed out when I leave work everyday. This could be because I've only been there a little over 3 weeks, but I choose to think that the people and work environment are just better.

Now that the first quarter of the year is coming to a close, it seems like a good time to assess my 2009 goals. Though I started off strong with the exercise and eating health stuff, I have to admit that I am failing miserably right now. I can honestly say that I haven't worked out in 6 weeks and let's just say that my eating habits leave much to be desired. As far as the finances goal goes, I have made a little progress. Thanks to a loan from Dad, I was able to pay off and close my high interest credit card. Now I can pay him back without having crazy interest charges added every month. Thanks Dad! Last but not least is the social goal. Even though I am not hanging out with friends as often as I'd like, I am at least still making an effort. I've done a couple of park days and dinners with various friends and co-workers throughout the month. I even joined my new Mummy co-workers for drinks, despite some reservations and being tired, after our training meeting last week. What I discovered was that they are definitely people I could enjoy hanging out with.

As usual, I hope everyone is doing well wherever you may be. Don't' forget to keep in touch. I'd love to hear from you.
