I look funky

I got my hair cut today. It used to be about 5 inches past my shoulders. It's now chin length. I guess it is kind of a bob haircut. I'm just so sick of either having to wear my hair in a pony tail or using a headband to keep my hair out of my face. Plus having my hair down was getting hot when I'm at work. I've been working my butt off and get overheated easily.

Speaking of working my butt off, I realized something last night. I have been focusing on the fact that I've only lost 10 lbs in the last 2 months since I've been back to work. I never stopped to realize that in the last 10 months or so I've lost a total of 27 lbs. It shocked the shit out of me that I hadn't realized it. I had just gone to bed when I realized it and had to sign back online and tell Ally and Sue. I would have told my mom but I doubt she would appreciate getting a call at 10:40 pm unless Nick or I was dying. hehehe My clothes aren't feeling any looser and that is tickin me off, but I'm thrilled to realize I've lost so much weight. I've still got about 50 lbs to go to make me ok with my weight. My doctor prolly won't be happy until I've lost another 90 though, but he is a butt. hehe

I bet poor Jon is ticked that I'm still not showing pics of what I'm talking about. :OP Well, if Best Buy didn't suck donkey dick, I would be using my own computer right now and uploading a picture of the shawl. I called like 2 weeks ago and asked them if they carried a 300 watt power supply and how much it would be. I was quoted a price and they said they had some. I went over this afternoon and they don't carry anything under 350 watts. I'm going to order one at Tigerdirect.com tonight. I'm too pooped right now to go through the whole ordeal. I should be able to order a 350 watt power supply for less than the 300 watt price that BB quoted and way less than they want for the 350 they have. I'm also going to order Nick an optical mouse for his computer. I can't believe how annoying using an old style mouse is. I've cleaned it over and over but it still jumps like mad.

Anyways, I'm pooped and would love to take a nap but I've got to go pick Nick up from school in a few mins. Told Mom that I would pick him up since I got off of work so early. I think I'm gonna end up taking a snooze on the couch in the family room when we get to the folk's house.

You do realize that losing ten pounds is better than gaining ten pounds? Or none at all?

One of the doctors in the practice I go to (not my regular doctor) decided that I was taking too much thyroid med and cut it by half. I put 24 pounds *on* in 31 days before my regular doc saw me and found out what had happened. (He was really apologetic, but it still took 4 months to take it off after he gave me back the medicine.) Nice. And before I gained all that weight I had lost 75# (over 4 years...gradually) and still had like almost 50# to go.

All that to say you're doing fantastic! Don't let anyone say otherwise. And I'd also be willing to bet that your hair looks really cute too. Pictures? Get the danged electronic gadgetry fixed! (I hate it when that happens.)

Hugs,
Susie
