...catching up....

as is becoming my habit, here is a catch up post:

home...is wonderful. i miss spending time with my family since i spend so much time away at work, but the time we do have makes me so very happy. i am so very in love with my home life at the moment that sometimes i need to pinch myself and make sure it isn't a dream.

health...is not an issue. i have all my energy back, my hair is coming in CURLY, i have my 3 month check-up in a week or two, and my hormones are starting to come back online (thankfully).

work....is busy! thing are crazy hectic and they keep giving me more to do. i continue to get positive feedback , and the teams keep telling me how well i have integrated into the environment. i recently got things set up so that i can start to work from home a few days a week.....and i will put together a schedule for that with my boss to start once my next quarter at school starts (in october).

school...is frustrating. i am nearing the end of the quarter, and am putting together my final project for the class...so my stress level is up a bit at the moment. 

training...is still fun! i am starting to notice changes all over. my core strength has really increased and i am getting more fit, overall....here are the updated logs:
