My Grits Confessions, Losing It at 50

Life, a huge butt, and the road to weightloss

The J.O.B.

leave a comment »

Well this is my reality……my hectic life has taken over my time once again.  What ever happened to the retirement age, or even the 10 minute power naps I use to take to rejuvenate and keep up with my crazy schedules?  I can’t even seem to fit those in my calendar anymore.  I need an  A & E Intervention!  I have to admit, even the Biggest Loser Campus is looking like a vacation to me. 

I have obviously been AWOL on here the last few months and the culpret is my new job……..yes, J.O.B.  After 10 years of being home and running my own business, I am a member of the Blue Color Club……….lol…..the elite Working Class.  For some reason my life is ass backwards.  Aren’t you suppose to work…….then retire?  Of course I have never done anything the easy way in my life.   I have to say though, that despite the physical and mental difficulties of being in the workforce, it has been an absolute positive experience for me.  It is funny how life throws you unexpected curves, however in the end there tends to be a tremendouse benefit from it………..well, usually……LOL. 

I began working at a Health Food Store in September.  If you have ever read some of the health and weightloss entries in this blog or my spellsgogreen blog, I have tried over the last couple of years to really educate myself in this area.  So, all and all, my job has become a love of learning food (organic, natural and unhealthy foods), nutrients (good and bad) and how it can better my life!  Hey, the plus is, I get paid for it. 

Despite the feet hurting and time away from home, my goal for 2010 is to get the balance back in my life.  LOL……..ok maybe this goal is extreme, but hey……you never know!
