Back in the Shit!

So at work I discovered mouse poop on my desk, so I guess I truly am back in the field and I love it! We will hunt these critters down and terminate them with no prejudice! I found it hard to get motivated at work this week. I have accomplished a few things, but not as many as I would like. I also am finding it hard to concentrate on future issues as I still don't see myself being here that long. I feel like a plane circling the airport waiting for my turn to land, or waiting for a message that I need to divert to a new airport.

I received a couple more phone calls on new opportunities, and I like both of them. The other thing I am struggling with is the longer I am here, the more I am getting into the project. I have bought a vehicle, bought all my furniture and have made several commitments(lease ect) so the longer I don't change jobs the more likely I won't. I still am not happy with the current compensation package, and I think that is what is driving me crazy and driving me to want to change. I have always been a hard worker and done a good job I believe, and been rewarded for them efforts in my previous roles. Here it seems they want to low ball you and give you as little as possible.

Ok I am done venting about work for this week, so on a positive note, I have lost the weight I put on while on holidays and while in Calgary. I mean it wasn't a lot of weight, but I feel comfortable knowing now that I can loose weight through just eating normally, and not dieting. That being said, I do want to loose 10 lbs this month, so I need to start working on that. My goal the next 4 months is to loose 30 lbs. That would put me on target for my overall goal. December will be a month off, and then my next goal is to loose 20 lbs by June. So the goals are realistic and achievable, and I have enough time and room to work it should I plateau or have a bad week.

My weed problem has been eradicated. It cost me $650 and 55 garbage bags of foliage! That's right 55! The gentlemen that did it will come back two more times to make sure they are gone for good. I need to put a budget in place to put a lawn down by next year. I was hoping to at least get my cement pad in the back. I guess that I something I will look at later this year. I should pay down some of my debt first that I accumulated while not working and coming here. Then concentrate on the back yard next year. Bah! Too much thinking. Its the weekend! Enjoy....blog ya later!
