Yesterday, I attended orientation at the church. I was not thrilled, because of some of the convictions of the church. I was in total agreement with the core beliefs of the church but I do have a problem with two of the three things that the church is against. Fred was on board with everything, so I follow my husband's lead and enjoy my new membership. I guess there is really no way to agree with everything. It brought to my memory why I was not interested in joining 5 years ago.
We went to our first official doctor's visit. I was excited. I knew that they were not going to do anything, but confirm my pregnancy, but I was glad to start a great journey of motherhood...again. They told me that I was about 6 weeks 3 days and that my due date is May 20th. How exciting!
Working out has been at a stand still. The fatigue has gotten the best of me so far. I have not been to the gym this week at all. I have set my alarm, prepared my gym attire every morning, but I just keep on sleeping through the 4:30 am alarm. Maybe next week will be better, something has got to give because I am about to grow out of all of my clothes and I am only about 6weeks and 4 days pregnant. I won't blame all of this on pregnancy. I have not been running like I have been and I have not been eating as strictly as I have been. So with those factors, weight gain is bond to occur. Not going to stress though. Just going to continue to monitor my meals and exercise when I feel like it. I may have to start doing things in the afternoons or at night after work, because in the mornings I feel "blah" and I just haven't been successful at attending my daily workouts in the morning. Boy, I have to find a way to get it together. I don't want to gain too much weight.
On the job stress has almost taken the best of me this week. I had to release an employee do to a decrease in work performance and a lack of interest in growing with the company. It was a difficult decision personally, but an easy decision business wise. Oh well, the life of a business owner. I have a colleague who owns her own business and she told me that the more work and heart you put into your business, the easier it will be to let those go who don't have the best intentions for your business. She was right. My business will continue to grow and so will I.
This weekend we are going to Oxford for a birthday party for Fred's 85 year old aunt. I love surprises. Especially for those who have entered their golden years and are appreciated by their family members before they pass away.
One more work day...I am ready to see what God has for me next week. This week has really been educational....
