The rain has been going on for the last week.  Not as much as we were having, but it rains every day at one point or another.  We had our family get together at Holly Hill in Warren on the 15th.  It was great.  The lodge was really nice.  The weather held out for the day.  It was really hot, but nice at the same time.  Greg barbequed and it was delicious.  All the sides were great and the desserts were delicious.  We had a good time visiting and playing train dominoes.

The boxing camp is taking a break for two weeks then a new six week class will start.  I’m looking forward to that.  I’ve still been going to Zumba, but regardless of that I’m gaining weight.  I can’t say that I’ve been doing very well on my eating habits lately.  It’s time to get back on track and get rid of these last pounds.

Tuesday Stacie, Chance and I went to Webster for her thyroid specialist appointment.  We came back through Galveston and went to thepiper and ate at Bubba Gumps.  It was delicious.  We didn’t walk the pier because it was so hot and it costs $10 just to walk it.  If you want to ride any rides it was almost $30.  We want to go back when we can stay over night and have the right attire, lol.

Worr has been going alright! Still not crazy about day shift, but it could be worse.  Two more months and I’ll be back on nights.

Guess that’s all for now.

Lately all it’s done here is rain!  I am so ready for it to stop.  People can’t drive in the rain, the ones tstay stay home can’t get along with one another and the calls never end. Ready for the weekend already.

Daddy had surgery again yesterday and everything came out alright.  I wishthey could figure out why he keeps having problems with this.  I know he gets tired or having to deal with it.

Looking forward to this Sunday and the family get together.  I hope that it’s going to be dry where we’re going.  I think it’s sheltered, but I would still like good weather.  I’m going to try making a fruit terrine.  It looks really good in the picturehope it tastes good, too.  Greg and  Linda are bbq’ng.

Right now I just wish this day would move along.  I’m ready for the weekend!

I went to a boxing class with Stacie Thursday night at world gym that is being taught by Valerie Mahfood.  It was quite interesting.  I didn’t think I was going to like it at all, but surprisingly I did. I went to Zumba that morning and thought I would have a hard time with the boxing.  Thursday night was relatively easy.  I went again Friday night and it was quite difficult.  Lots of upper body work and I quickly found out how much I’m lacking in that dept.  The instructor said that I will definitely get upper body strength from taking her class.  There are only 2 weeks left of this camp and I’m gonna continue going.  I’m still gonna do Zumba and add this workout.  There will be a 2 week break after this camp and then another 6 week camp starts.  I’m gonna plan on attending that full camp.  Sure would nice to get my arms looking decent and have upper body strength.  I tried to talk Ricky into going with me, but no luck with that.  He says he already knows how to box from his uncle that used to teach it.  The camp isn’t about learning to be a boxer, it’s all about working out your body and building muscles.

Its been a week now on days and so far I have survived.  It has been painful to say the least.  Ricky is the biggest pain in the ass ever. (my boss, not my husband, lol). The phones ring off the wall and nobody wants to answer them.  That drives me crazy.  Ricky pulls me onto his office for every little thing not even caring that it leaves the office super short on people.  He keeps taking our white book and looking over our schedule and deleting overtime when he has no idea what he is even looking at.  This business of him doing all of Barbi’s old jobs is ridiculous because just like her he hasn’t got a clue.  I go home every day with my shoulders hurting so bad.  I can’t wait till September when I can go back to midnights.  I miss my crew Nd the hours and the peace in the office.
