,
It's been a while since I've updated this. Sorry 'bout that. Things have been busy with work, as I try to learn the ways of the other company. I didn't realize how accustomed I'd become to doing things a certain way--until I switched. But ah well, it's a learning experience. And I love to learn.
Ash Wednesday was this past Wed, for those of you who aren't Catholic. I decided to give up chocolate, fast food and biting my nails (horrible stress-induced habit). So far so good. Of course, it hasn't even been a week. But I know I can do it. I'm also trying to pray more, and read more of the Bible. I think that Lent is a good time to become even more connected with God, on a deeper, more personal level. Sometimes I feel that with the stress of everyday life, my prayer time goes by the wayside. I'm working to change that.
This weekend has been very uneventful. I caught some sort of stomach virus on Friday, and ended up throwing up all night. Gross. I haven't done that since I was younger (well, and from drinking--but that's a different story). Saturday I still didn't feel well, so I stayed home all day. Fun. I missed the Texas Exes celebration of Texas Independence Day, which was not cool. I hope everyone else had a good time watching the bull-riding tournament. :)
It's supposed to snow tonight. And by snow, I mean 4-8" on the ground tomorrow morning. Yuck. I'm feeling a bit better now (though I still can't eat much at all), so I managed to go to Church, go to the grocery store, and now I'm going to do my laundry. It's like a race against the weather. Wish me luck.
I hope that next week is a good one! We have an annual meeting on Wed morning, and it's supposed to be quite cold during the beginning of the week. Seven shots soon, though. Should be interesting.
