didn't get it...

no promotion... my coworker called to tell me even though I won't be officially told until Monday. They hired someone externally and I am thankful for that because just 9 months ago I was that external candidate trying to get in the door at the American Cancer Society so I hope this new person loves the organization as much as I do.

Other news - potty progress... Anna is getting pretty darn good at pooping but has seemed to scale back on going pee. I don't know why that is... oh well. We went to Toys R Us today and Anna was allowed to pick out a toy - any toy - imagine my surprise when she picked a simple and small puzzle. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised - this girl LOVES the puzzles - maybe I should get her a Rubix Cube and she what she does with it...

I am now looking forward to a relaxing weekend at home. I am going to hit the gym this weekend because last Wednesday at my weigh in, I gained! 1.2 pounds... I wasn't too surprised I guess... all that Halloween candy at work got to me and the job stress... so now is time to crack down - I want to lose that 1.2 and another 1.6 by Wed. that's 2.8 and that's a lot for those of you that know that losing 1-2 pounds a week is ideal...i wanted to be down 40 pounds by Nov. 10 when Emma will be 4 months but it looks like I might be two weeks late on that goal... grrr... oh well i can't complain - I am making progress.
