Allergy Season Phase 1

Well, allergy season is in full swing. The trees are budding, the flowers are blooming, and I'm sneezing like an elephant with a cold. I've got lots of allergy meds to get me through the next couple of weeks, although that doesn't change the fact my head is going to be a little cloudy for those two weeks, which makes works a little more tiresome than it already is.

The good news is, in a couple weeks I will start my nice new shift which I'm really excited about. I'll be able to have something of a life. I am getting off these 10 hour shifts, I praise the people who love them and can do them, as for myself, 10 hours at this job, I can't do. 10 hours of something else maybe, but not this job :( I'll miss the three day weekends, but I'll give up one of those days to be off at 6pm instead of 12:30 am.

The good thing about this shift change, when it happens, is I'll be able to exercise again. I've put on a bit of weight since January, and even more since I started these 10 hour shifts. I'll be able to exercise for numerous reasons. First, I won't be so drained from work, I'll actually have the energy to actually exercise. Second, I'll be home at a reasonable hour so I can exercise and not keep everyone in the house awake with the constant clanking of weight plates and the hum of an exercise bike, and naturally me panting and sweating up a storm. Third, and lastly, I'll be able to prepare proper meals to help with weight loss and exercise, instead of relying on quick instant crap that's full of salt and preservatives that are not exactly healthy compared to say, a grilled chicken breast and steamed veggies for example. :)

Anyway, that's all the news for now. I hope everyone is well, and if you see me on face book, add me would ya? I know I have more than 10 friends out there ;)
