The new life

Well we're half way through January and as I stated last things are changing. My real estate career is going in full force. We've got 2 listings so far and I am working harder than I have in years. 5 out of 7 days I have to be dressed now which I guess is a good thing. I'm working hard but funny thing though is I'm enjoying it. I guess having control will do that. I work for myself (and my business partner ) so I can't bitch about the boss.

Donald is starting school in two weeks. He has decided after all these years he wants to be a rodeo clown. Go figure. No actually he's going to school to get his Multi Dwelling Building Inspector license. Once he's done he's hoping to go work for the state so he can have all of you pay his salary!

I'm having a drink this evening because tomorrow I start the alli diet plan. The alli diet plan is supplement you take that breaks down fats. The way the plan work is you take this pill daily and if you go off diet - you get what they call "treatment side effects". Treatment side effects basically are that when you go to the bathroom - you lose a piece of small intestine and perhaps ( depending on how far off you go ) a piece of your stomach. You also may not be able to control when you might lose a piece of your stomach. It could be during a big party which would be really embarrassing . So the incentive is stay on the diet. I figure I should be dead by Friday but hey I'll be thin. Besides I figure if my only other alternative was to have someone provide shock therapy every time I go to touch a NO NO food. Since I know too many people that would get pleasure from that - I'll try this route. I really don't have a goal weight I just want to be thin enough to be able to pull off a bikini so I can embarrass my children to death ( yes mom I still remember the red dress - I swore I was never going out of the house again )

All is well with children. They are driving me nuts as usual. The day after Christmas as I looked upon piles of gifts, cardboard and wrapping paper they informed me they were gearing up for the Easter Bunny's arrival. Gotta love kids.
