The Art of networking

I am amazed at how many calls I have received for job opportunities in the last two weeks. I figured that once things picked up I would receive calls for a job opportunities, However, most of the calls I am getting are not related to the work picking up, rather just normal every day jobs. This coupled with my networking with people I know, I have been given several choices of positions. Now I did accept the Regina job, and I do believe in a bit of loyalty to at least go there and work and see if it will be ok. I would have liked to have made more money, and I think I could have made more money in a couple other roles however, time will tell with this job.

On the health front, I am noticing that when my Blood pressure is a lil bit elevated, my heart rate is down and when my heart rate is up my BP is down, weird eh! I also notice that my BP in the morning is much lower than my BP at night and the opposite for my resting heart rate; it is higher in the morning and lower at night. I am a fraction away from achieving my next weight goal of losing 35 lbs. I Jumped on the scale today and was down to 255.6 Here is this month’s progress so far:

2450 -2450 255.6 1.40 73 115-74

Not bad eh! There is actually a front portion of this spread sheet, but this is the important information that I use to help me keep track of what’s happening. I think if all goes well and I am diligent in Regina, I will be able to drop the 45 lbs before my reunion on the 11 July. If not well I have already reached my golf for this month and in 1.4 lbs I will have reached the reunion goal so I am still doing great!

Well time to shower and get ready for golf, got to try out the new club bought!
