So...

I just got my meals together for two days!!! Nice, clean meals. I have carrots & celery & greenbeans. I have roast chicken, lump crabmeat & canned salmon (God I hope I don't regret that) mixed like tuna with light mayo. I have organic plain yogurt with an apple & cinnamon & oatmeal. I will drink my water. I will get my shit together!!!

With all this chopping I put together the vegis for a nice chicken soup. All I will have to do in the AM is open & rinse the boobies & toss them in the crockpot. Throw the bag of vegis in & pour water over it. Erin will have soup ready before she leaves for work at 3 & we'll have dinner when we come home. I'll add 1/2 c of brown rice to mine when I get home. NUM YUMMY!

I ended up having to take tonight as a rest night. We didn't get home until after 6 & by the time we got dinner ready it was 7. So...I'll do FL IB tomorrow night while John is out because the heaviest I'll be lifting is 65 lbs doing deads. If it's too heavy I can throw the bar down. I'll also go ahead & do some HIIT since I'll be home alone. That'll keep me from getting into the Oreos Erin made me buy for her (okay she didn't MAKE me but she CAN eat that stuff without worry--for now).

I found my office completely trashed today. People just dumped files everywhere on both desks in the office. It totally pissed me off. I kept my door closed for most of the day just trying to get through the 215 emails I received last week. Tomorrow I'll tackle some of the piles of shit on the other desk (I just put everything in a pile on the currently unoccupied desk).

I found out today that my "assistant" will be starting in either a week or two weeks depending on if the company she will be contracted through will "allow" her to start without taking some "military contractor employee" specific training. We've requested they waive it because she has been a contractor employee before & knows the "intricacies" of working on a military installation.

We hired a woman who used to work for TRICARE. I know she's a hard worker & will mind her business -- I won't have to worry if I have a private conversation in the office that it will get all over the office.

It's going to be a little different for me to share an office. I haven't shared an office in more than 5 years. I hope to be a gracious office mate but God I worry that I won't be because I've been alone for so long & feel a little put out by this turn of events (I wasn't given an option to keep my private office). I know it's for the best & am trying to keep that in mind.
