Go figure!

i don't understand either. help

i don't understand either. help

me neither....

Just a quick update for you gals before I read my backlog...

I went to the cardiologist today. He says I've been having panic attacks when the palpitations happen. But it's benign. And can be helped with some magnesium supplements.

So basically, he told me to not take Worker's Comp because it would go on my record. And I really really really don't want worker's comp ANYWAY. I think I'm going to not answer any of my calls from the Worker's Comp people and tell my HR that I'm already in treatment, although they made me sign something that acknowledged that an "injury" happened at work.

I told them that I don't want to take Worker's Comp and they're not taking that for an answer. So any tips on how I can go about that. They're frankly causing me more stress because they're forcing me into something I don't want.

Updates! My foot is feeling much better! It still hurts a little bit if I try to put weight on it, but it's definitely healing up.

I got a text earlier from my boyfriend saying that he fixed my computer by doing a system restore. Makes no sense because I literally tried doing a system restore to every restore point my computer had saved and it made no difference. Computers... I hate them and I love them.

Also, I didn't make it to the next round of that scholarship, but I'm not sweating it too much. You win some, you lose some. I just wanted to say thanks again to all you ladies for your support!

You have a PM.

Might take advantage of the FS on $25 to use up some $10 SRCs. Having a crappy day today. Sorry, but I need to vent--

I haven't really been sleeping because I'm so stressed out with school (finals start on Tuesday and I have a huge case study to complete plus 3 papers, a course portfolio, an exam, and I still have to create a final exam for the undergrad course I'm teaching). So I'm exhausted, overwhelmed, and just got my period so I'm super emotional and irritable.

My mom had a deal with me since October that if I lost 20 lbs. by December, she'd purchase a half season's worth of AHL hockey tickets for BF and I to use starting in January. It's really expensive--like $560--but she was going to split it with my grandmother so it wouldn't be as much. And she offered!

I'm 2 lbs. below my goal (so I've lost 18 lbs.), so no tickets. I know a deal's a deal, but I'm so stressed and worked so hard to lose the weight and it's like it doesn't even matter because it's 18 lbs. and not twenty. I'm just frustrated that there's next to no acknowledgment because it's not the perfect "20 lbs." since October. It's not as though I'm morbidly obese--I'm between a size 6 and 8. And I really wanted the tickets. I tried SO hard but you can't just "make" the weight come off. My dad doesn't think it's a big deal, either--he says I don't look any different, which is ridiculous--but his metabolism is awesome and he's never had to work to lose weight in his life like my mom and I do. So he doesn't get it. (I hope this doesn't make me sound like a brat--I did work really hard.)

I'm just disappointed in myself and anxious with everything else on top of it. I haven't had a "good cry" all semester long, so I think I need it, but now I'm all sniffly and headache-y and still have all this work to do. I just want it to be Christmas. I'm so tired of being exhausted and running on fumes all the time.
