Friday -

- and not a moment too soon. Yesterday was just not good. We won't find out how many we are laying off or who they are until about 2-3 weeks. Nice, eh? They should have told us the day they were actually doing it, but instead we get to work on pins & needles until the big day. I was stressed....worried...and upset. Rob works in the high-tech industry where they have laid off more than once in the last year as well; just a sickening feeling. So because I am an emotional eater, I did what I do best: I ATE. Yes, I admit it - I am a loser who can't stay on an eating plan. I actually did well at the office....stayed on track....on track for dinner too....and then I was home and thinking....and just started with some crackers and dip - not on my plan, but not too terrible - and then moved on to a bowl of cereal and then some Valentine candy corn. And then I felt sick to my stomach. My system didn't know what to do with so much junk in it. Pathetic, I know.

Anywho - I made this card for Amber's Viva la Verve challenge this week. K told me she loved this - so it can't be all bad, right?

Enjoy your Friday, Girls - the weekend has arrived!

You've been doing GREAT losing weight and one evening of endulging a little does not ruin things for you!! Don't feel badly about yourself, just keep going. I'm so proud of how well you've done and I know you'll keep going and lose the weight you want!! :)

Sorry about the layoffs, that does have to be stressful. Hopefully you have nothing to worry about since you've been there for so long and you do a great job!

Hope you're back on track this morning. One night won't kill you.
TGIF - I'm sure your job is safe. You've been there too long, and besides you're too awesome to get rid of. Hang in there!

I agree with Heather, one night is not going to kill you. And, there is nothing wrong with eating a little bit of "junk" here and there if it's done in moderation.

LOVE the card. The colors are great and that patterned paper is wonderful.

Wow, must be nerve racking not knowing if you have a job from one day to the next. I am a blog surfer and every so often I come across yours and have a good laugh. You are a hooooooot. It is nice to see someone that is open and honest about everything they say and do. Sure hope that you and your bff can get over things. I'm sure she is not perfect and has said a few bad words in her life more than once. Maybe in blogging world, she makes herself to be a miss perfect but in real, she has quite a few faults of her own. The only one in this world that is perfect, but takes a crap in a toilet everyday like you and me is the queen. Maybe you bff is feeling a little guilty for running her mouth off to you.

Have a good day and remember, it is a pleasure to read your blog and have a good laugh once in awhile. Keep up the good work and have a fabulous weekend.
