2nd Month begins

Today is the 2nd month of NS and day 2. I only have 4 days left on my vacation. I'm not looking forward to returning. Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed my job for many years, but this has been a tough last four months. We laid off about 40% of our staff and now are going through a merger that who knows where it will take us. I have a lot of problems to fix when I get back and some of which I don't know how we will fix. Oh well, I will worry about it when I return to work. All you can do is your best. But the work environment has changed and for the first time in my 20 years at this company I feel like the future is uncertain. I am going to make plans just in case though. I plan on returning to school in the fall and I'm going to study for and pass the real estate test. I have a few contacts in the real estate business now so I may try to become a loan processor. I know a realator who is very successful and can possibly bring some business my way. I make a good living, but I'm tired of being at the mercy of an employer. Even though my background is in computers and mathematics, I think a career change is in need. I do have a standing job offer as a math teacher. I have thought about becomming a teacher, maybe teaching geometry or trig.... maybe even calculus, but with kids today...... it's just different than when I was in high school. But, we'll see. Right now I want to plan on something in real estate, but I won't discount teaching - though I'd be poor all the time. Not that there is anything wrong with that ( don't you hate Seinfeld). :)

Anyways, NS is going well, though I have eaten out way too much on my vacation. I have still eaten healthy, just too much away from the NS foods. When I return to work on Saturday I will resume my eating out just once a week for breakfast on Wednesdays.

I still have many items on my vacation to-do list, but I don't feel like doing any today. I think I will have lunch in another hour then maybe go to the movies. Not sure what I will see, but that's what I feel like doing.

I should be getting my 2nd shipment of NS foods here any day. It was shipped on the 27th and it usually takes about 4-7 days. I still have four or five days of NS foods left, so it should be fine.

Here is what my menu has been for today :

Ok, I ate out breakfast again, but I had my usual : Egg white veggie omelette with 1 tspn of guacamole and salsa topping. 8 oz of plain oatmeal, one skinless chicken breast.

Lunch: NS Entree (Nutripeptide drink), salad with tomato, onion and 2 slices of Polenta, melon.

Dinner : (not sure yet).
