Online with Michelle

I know that yesterday’s blog post was a bit of a downer, but today I am feeling better. Yesterday, I started to read about my seminar when I got home from work. I realized that this unit for my software applications class was going to be a breeze, so I opted to take the seminar quiz. Now, if you don’t attend the seminar you have to take the quiz in order to get the points. So, I did this last night. I received 100% of the seminar quiz so I opted not to sit through the seminar last night.

Tonight is vice presidential candidates debate. Everyone that I know of is going to be watching. I am just hoping that I can stay awake long to watch it for a while. Of course, I want Biden to stomp all over Palin. I think that Palin has been prepped and prepped for this debate so much so that failure is inevitable. Maybe not quite failure, but more material for SNL at the very least.

I know that I said I was going to let go of this month as far as trying to conceive, but I keep watching my temps for any kind of sign of ovulation and still nothing. Even my breasts are not sore, so that sign alone tells me that something is not quite right. I suppose it is possible for a woman to miss ovulation for one month or so and I guess even that pertains to me. I am just watching and waiting for AF to show up so I can move on to a new month. I think that I will go back to start taking soy right around day three versus the first day. I have no idea if this caused these issues or not.

Well, that’s all I have for this morning. I hope that you have a great night!!

Yes, I am. That’s what I have decided over the past couple of days. Here is what I am thinking about this change … In December, towards the end of the month, I have decided to get started on Chantrix (the latest stop smoking medicine). Ok, that decision has been made. Now I need to either do something about my attitude or my job. I think that these two go hand in hand. Either that or I am just having a rough week.

On Monday, I wasn’t in a bad mood as Tator Tot had suggested over and over. I just wasn’t myself. And Tuesday, the same thing still I wasn’t in a bad mood. I am not sure what’s going on with me. I just don’t have the motivation or desire for much of anything right now. I wonder if this is why I just can’t get myself into trying to conceive this month.

I wish there were a book about making life changes. Just changes within myself, nothing to do with Tator Tot. I know that towards the end of the year, I’ll be getting ready to make one big change, but there has to be something more. Something more than coming to work to do data entry of applications or wait for emails to come pouring in about work.

As it relates to work, I think that I have totally re-vamped my job to a point that I am holding on to applications in order  to be sure that I have something to do the next day. The use of one little program has totally taken 75% of my workload away. So I don’t think that I can improve my position any better than I already have. Which results in my frustration of not having any work to do. On the other hand, I don’t want to learn any more of anyone’s position because I could care less. See, isn’t that a great attitude.

Another part of this that frustrates me so much is that I get paid very well. In fact, I am paid so well that its hard to find another position that would pay me this well. So I sit here unhappy and dissatisfied. What a combination!!

Plus, I am getting older and I think that I should be in a position where I am set with my life. In terms of relationships and career wise, but sadly that’s not the case (pertains only to my job). I guess, maybe, that’s what I need to think about as far as change is concerned.

Well, that wraps up this very long post. I hope that you have a great day.

Brrr, I woke up this morning shivering. Its kind of cold. I guess that means fall is here. Tator Tot will like this weather when we wakes up. He LOVES cold mornings. Actually if he could move to the North Pole he just might do that. On the other hand I would prefer somewhere warm and not so humid. For now we will both endure the weather that the Midwest brings to us.

Its hard to believe but today is the last day of unit 2. It seems like these two weeks have passed by very quickly. I was thinking last night as I watching information on the defeated ‘Bail Out’ plan … In a little under three years, I will get my Bachelor’s degree. Yet I will still have another three years to pay on my car by the time of graduation. Isn’t that crazy. I am not sure why I was thinking about that.

Cycle day 20 and yesterday I didn’t test with OPK’s. My temperature is still low or at least what I am saying is low. Maybe taking the increased dosage of soy wasn’t a good idea for me. Heck, I am not sure what to think. Yesterday Tator Tot went to the doctor’s. I was  bit disappointed to find out that the doctor didn’t prescribe the stop smoking medicine for him because insurance will not pay for it. Despite this I am going to make an appointment to request it just before Christmas, when we get our holiday bonus.

Last night I tried to make another Internet date for Tator Tot, but was getting restless and didn’t achieve what I has wanted too. So the poor guy doesn’t have a date for today. Maybe tonight I will get something created. By the way, I have been creating his dates with DAZ3d using the V4 model.

That’s all I have for today, I hope that you have a great day!!
