time for a change

It's interesting that time passes so quickly while thoughts filter in and are just as quickly forgotten. I've been wanting to take better care of myself, exercise more, get rid of the clutter in my life, and have I? Not yet. Why? Time. Is that really a good excuse or reason? No.

So what's a girl to do? I started taking vitamins today and took the cover off of the treadmill. Perhaps exercising my body will help exercise my mind. Perhaps.

I used to be able to eat anything I wanted and stay that svelt trim gal. Those days are apparently gone, as I've noticed my clothes not fitting as well and my shape is becoming something from a Michelangelo portrait. Classic beauty, maybe, but on me? I don't want to buy bigger sized clothes, and I prefer love handles on men. Ha.

fridays are the best

After several weeks of chaos and marked stress, I am soooooo looking forward to actually sleeping in on Saturday morning. The phone will be taken off of the hook in an attempt to ensure tranquility for a good morning's sleep. We'll see if the plan works.

Yet another meeting on a Friday afternoon. How many meetings are simply meetings to discuss having more meetings? Do meetings ever produce consensus or encourage communication? Businesses amaze me - how *do* they make money when only a few are aware of what's going on? Another one of my queries thrown to the wind, ne'er to return.

Clockwatching has never been one of my strong points or idiosyncracies, but I seem to be spending a considerable amount of time doing just that today. Off to review agendas, I can only hope the weather (and tempers) calm down.
