It Works!

Doing the happy dance this morning – I found some really cute capri pants on clearance a few months ago for about $7. They sort of fit, except I couldn’t zip them. For $7, they were too cute to pass up – so they became my “Goal #1” pants.

Guess what I wore to work today?

They will fit better in a few weeks, but they fit now. This totally makes up for the fact that I pushed myself to go to the gym last night in spite of a severe headache and tummy flutters. (I’ve felt quesy off and on all week, but last night was the worst.) I could not let myself slack off this early. No excuses!

you know, i’ve been struggling to keep motivated in going to the gym. sometimes it’s hard to get myself over there. maybe having a short term goal like that will help…

I am a firm believer in losing inches over pounds. Sure, I want to lose pounds too – but if I could wear a size or two smaller clothes, be more tone, but only lose 3 pounds, I would be cool with that. I have a few “goal” items in my closet!

I too sometimes have to drag myself to the gym. Ususally if I have a headache or feel generally bad I feel better if I go to the gym. I use that to get myself there! Congrats on the goal pants! It always helps to get that sort of positive reinforcement! Keep at it!

way to go! i don’t have any goal clothes… except maybe the upper sleeves in my shirts… like my button downs? it’s getting a little suffocating… i’ve been the same size forever!!! but i agree – lose inches not necessarily pounds… you don’t want to fly away.

IT WORKS!!!

I am WIRELESS right now. No cords. Laptop is free to roam. I am sooooo happy. I am also still watching the Amazing Race. I am past the point where Kevin and Drew are in the cab and they pass Team Guido (everyone say it with me, Team Guido SUCKS!) on the bus. Yes, I was cheering out loud!!!

I thought I had it all set up before, but since I am using a set DNS on the pc and not an automatic one, but had accidentally set it to find DNS automatically on the laptop, I couldn’t get to websites or my e-mail. I could however exchange ICQ messages with Jennifer, so I knew it was something minor I had to fix. Commercial break hit on the show and I couldn’t take it any more – I went to look at the DNS settings on the pc, set them on the laptop, rebooted the laptop and we are IN BUSINESS BABY!!! I am so happy. Oh, what fun!

Back to The Amazing Race. I’ll share the rest of the evening’s events later.

Oh, how neato it would be to be able to roam around the house with my computer and not have cords to deal with 🙂 Someday, I’m gonna have a laptop and a wireless network so that I can lounge on the sofa while working 🙂 🙂 🙂
