The World According to Leslie

Today is February 19th! How is it possible that we are already over half way through February?  It's absolutely nuts that 2018 just started and we are already over a month and a half through it!  I'm hoping the rest of 2018 will slow down. I want lots of time to do all the things I want to do this year. What have you accomplished in the first month and a half of 2018?

 Apparently, I made it!!  Thursday, February 15th was my 40th birthday! In 2013, I went to see my doctor, and he told me I wouldn't make it to 40 if I didn't lose some weight. In 2014, I started the process to being approved for weight loss surgery. In 2015, I had surgery! In 2018, I made it!  I'm 40!!!  (I'm also 200 lbs lighter than I was in 2015!!) I didn't do anything very exciting. In fact, I slept most of the day. I had been sick for a couple of days. I had already planned to be off work all day.  Unfortunately, I didn't know I was planning to hang out and watch TV all day with a temperature of 101. Hey! At this age, you take the rest and relaxation where you can get it...right? :) All in all, I had a good day! Tony and the Princess got me a few PURPLE FitBit! I rested! I made it! When is your birthday?  How are you planning to celebrate?

I didn't work at the daycare today. I got someone to cover the bowling alley tonight. Not only that, but today is the LAST DAY I'm 39! Tomorrow is my birthday! I don't know that I have done a lot this year (since Feb. 2017) except work, but I know that I have lots of things I want to do in the upcoming year! Tony is at work. I'm fighting a sinus infection!  (YUCK!!) I have no idea what we are doing for Valentine's Day..... probably eating at home and watching TV! I know that Tony and I have been on a great journey since we got engaged on Valentine's Day 2000. I can't believe it's been 18 years! A little over a year later, he and I got married in a Valentine's themed wedding in the middle of May! He's put up with a lot o

I have had people tell me in the past that since I do so much stuff and have so many things going on at one time, I must be great at time management.  I'm not.  I really need a personal secretary to do things for me so I can REALLY get some stuff done.  Until I can afford that, I'll have to keep prioritizing so I get SOME stuff done and the rest waits until "tomorrow".... whenever tomorrow may be. How do you get everything done?
