I don't like staring blankly at puzzles, I like to solve them.

Wow.  Lots of news.  Weighed in on Saturday.  Lost 2.4 pounds!  WOOT.  I've still got it!  It was a huge encouragement.  I have a feeling I'm going to have week 2 syndrome this week, so I'm being proactive, to try and squeeze out a loss anyway. 

I have a check up with my shoulder doctor tomorrow.  Today marks 9 weeks.  Amazing. 

My mind has been swirling for the last 36 hours.  I worked some crazy late hours (like 2am) on Saturday and was up early again Sunday, so all signs pointed to a nap.  I tried, but my brain went straight to school.  I'm forming a plan, and puzzle pieces are coming together!  I'm going to switch over from Computer Information Systems to Computer Science (still keeping my Criminology Minor, which is VERY important to me) and my dream job down the road is a Special Agent for the FBI Cyber Division investigating computer related crimes.  I'm so thrilled I could dance!  Or not sleep at least. 

From Friday night through last night I'm looking at a grand total of 17 hours of sleep over 3 nights...not a great track record, since that number's usually more like 24 or 27.  Looks like because my mind's still spinning, I'm in for no more than 6 hours tonight too.  I'm already starting to get congested.  I need sleep or I'm going to get SICK.  EW. 

I feel like all the puzzle pieces are starting to fall into place in my life.  I'm turning it all around.  I've turned my weight back into loss, I've stopped feeling sorry for myself, started exercising again, and I've started to compose a plan for school.  I have DIRECTION.  It feels great.  I'm not a fan of the nomad feeling.  It was helpful to my life experience, but I'm a little tired of sometimes feeling like I'm spinning my wheels.  Do I look like a hamster?  I didn't think so.  :)

Well I'm off to TRY and sleep.  HA! 

Until next time,
:)
