Did 4 miles this evening which brings me up to 10 so far for the week. Half way to my goal! I'm in a great mood this week. Things seem to be falling into place this week, and I am in a great mood. This whole goal setting thing is having unexpected effect of causing me to look at longer term goals in other neglected areas of my life.

Amy,
If your bunnies don't turn out to be quite show quality, you could repurpose them for hearding:
Take a look:
Watch a rabbit herd sheep | Grist

My stress level is starting to rise b/c I still haven't written any policies for the week. I'm STILL in the middle of 3 apps and waiting on info. I had a issue with the rate changing on one of my clients apps (she has 2 that I'm doing). I had to send that up to the higher ups to have them fix it so I'm waiting on that fix to come through, it may not be until next week. I know I'll get it b/c I work with her. She's actually like the boss... of the boss and only does business with me. I have the other guy (the one that owns an engineering firm) that's wanting me to write the 3 apps on him but I can't see to get him nailed down b/c he's so damn busy.
I've been staying deficient but my diet hasn't been the greatest. I've had AT LEAST one PB&J sammich a day, sometimes two, so my fat intake has been high.
I did make it to the gym again today, two days in a row so I have to change it up a little to give my muscle groups from yesterday a rest. Still no walking for me.

King Cakes
Ladies, I have in the past shipped King Cakes to people but can't afford to at the moment (b/c they stick it to you on the shipping I think it was like $55 and the cake itself was only $15-$20). Once I get my bonus I could afford to ship everybody one but they'll be out of season.
Anyway, I found out that you can actually place your order from away and have one shipped to you. So Quinn or anyone wanting one, now you can have one. I heard that Randazzo's & Paul's Pastry does it but I'd imagine that many places do. Hell you may even be able to get Walmart to ship one, I don't know (just do a google search b/c I'm not posting any links). Just throwing that out there.
If anyone is planning on getting one, just let me know where you're planning on getting it from and I'll tell you if I've had them from there and if there are any good.
Tori, I've already been called a tease once (by Amy) so just so you don't think I left you hanging

I didn't click it, but now I want to......you and your damn subliminal messages. I'm gonna be singing Milli Vanilli all day tomorrow at work. When I get things thrown at me, it's YOUR fault (although I did watch that particular vid the other day. so maybe it's both of our faults)

I have no idea why my spell check didn't catch it. I rarely proof read and I type so damn fast (with just 2 fingers) that there's no telling what I may spell wrong. What about the "other" link I just posted?
