The Wrong Day To Give Up Junk Food

Well ladies and gentlemen, I started the day with very good intentions and ended up in my bathtub with a bowl of ice cream. Today I went to work and promised Lisa/Delarla that I would give up junk food with her....but then I was informed that I was being let go from my job. Apparently the company I worked for has decided that it can't support my salary anymore. Just one more lovely event in this really bad couple of weeks i have had. Sorry Lisa. I'll try no more junk food again tomorrow.

Aww Heather, I am sorry to hear you were let go from your job, OK you are allowed to eat ice cream in your bathtub, I would of done the same thing, if it makes you feel any better, I blew it today too, I ate 2 rice krispie treats.

Hang in there , tomorrow is a new day :D

Heather,

Sorry about your job. The same thing happened to me at the beginning of April and I just started a new job last week. I did get back at my company by getting both mine and my husbands lap-band surgeries before my insurance expired on the last day of April. Eat ice cream, you deserve it!

That sucks! Don't put too many demands on yourself during such a difficult time -- you've already got a lot to think about. I hope you find a new, and better, job soon. Meanwhile, you deserve a little pampering, and if ice cream is a part of that, no one will hold it against you.

BTW, the title of your message made me think of Leslie Nielsen in "Airplane" -- is that what you had in mind?

Leslie Neilson is what I had in mind. Yes it is official no work today unless you count beating the streets for a job. Wish me luck. By the way I do real estate loan closings and also have experience in servicing mortgage loans for Fannie Mae.....soooo if anybody has a wonderful job out there I would love to hear about it.

Thanks Guys

So sorry to hear this. My husband went through the same thing right after Christmas. It sucked but he likes his new job much better. I pray that there is something even better out there for you!

Fellow name sharer....so sorry about the job. I say your ice cream was a-ok. No worries. Best of luck in finding something bigger and better.

I went out today and it only took me one resume. I start my new job on Monday. Can I just say that God is truly wonderful. Thanks for all of the support. Oh and by the way.... no ice cream today. :D
