~another reason why I'll miss this place~

There is an older man working here - he's about to retire, but he is a wealth of knowledge and they desperately don't want him to go...anyway, he has a lot of hiring needs and I've worked with him quite a bit. He doesn't want me to leave and offered a reference if I needed it.

He is sort of a grandpa-like type, with an adorable Santa Clause-like figure, makes you just want to give him a big 'ol bear hug.

On Monday - he came in and said I was looking really good since having the baby. Awwww!

On Tuesday - he came in and said I looked really nice!

(Note: Everyday for the past week I've been running @ least 1 mile on the treadmill, doing 60 crunches and some arm weights and I'm down 7 lbs since May 1 - FINALLY!!!)

I blurted out "Oh, I'm gonna miss you Fred! You are the only one who says such nice things to me!"

And it's true!!! I sure will miss him.

OK - back to hiatus...no other good news to report.

Chele-thanks! As for the clothes, well, I had to buy some bigger size clothes to go back to work so they are a tad bit looser but I still can't fit in my pre-pregnancy clothes. :-( Eventually...

Mary-thanks!!!
