My life after gastric bypass surgery. It's about all my quirks and cool (and strange) thoughts.

Healing and feeling old. . . LOL
So. . . I will be 36 on Sunday and I am so happy that I will be 145 pounds lighter this year than last year. My birthday wish last year was that I would be smaller by my 36th birthday. It's amazing though that the more weight I lose the more my back hurts!!! I went to physical therapy yesterday and today, which has helped some but I thought losing weight was supposed to fix all the pain. LOL. Doctors lie!!!
Also, most of you know that I am a student. I was told that my student loan limits were going to be reached before I was done with classes and I was really worried about how I was going to come up with $6,000!!!! I don't want anything to stop me from graduating this time. My ex stopped me last time when I lost ex's second income and had to leave school so close to graduation. You guys also know that I am a firm believer in prayer. It doesn't matter if you go to church or not, prayers are answered. I prayed that somehow there would be a way to help me graduate. Yesterday, I was told that the government increased the loan limits from 47,000 dollars to 57,000 dollars!!! So. . . now I will only have to pay for about two classes (3,000) and if I save all my tuition reimbursement, I will have enough!!!!
My coworker is being quite difficult lately. It seems that she is a huge control freak and is trying to control me as well (since I am the peon in the office, I am the easiest target). It's been exhausting to be around someone who not only doesn't communicate well in general, but who now is upset that I weigh less than her and that I am happy. It's as though she wants me to be miserable like her and I hate being around people like that. We are on day seven of the silent treatment right now and I can't stand it. She's 50+ and acts like she's 12. My only feeling of sanity comes from knowing that I will graduate and leave there to something better. Some day I will ahve a graduate degree and she will be an insurance adjuster who couldn't find an insurance job and is still working as a secretary!!! Her husband can't (or won't) find a full-time job so she has a lot of stress, but it isn't my fault.

ReplyDeleteI work for Utah State Risk Management on Capitol Hill. I love it. . .well, not the coworker. LOLOL. They pay me $16 an hour to answer phones and do my homework!! It's crazy great with benefits too. Where are you working?
Communications major . . . what do you want to do when you're done? That's a crazy amount of money!
ReplyDelete$16 an hour to answer phones is a lot! Lucky you! I'm a stay-at-home mom. I worked at LDS Hospital until I had Nathan (he's almost 6). Some days I miss working and interacting with others but I would never want someone else raising my boys.
