McDonalds

Hmm what to say about today.  It was my first day of phlebotomy clinicals.  I really for the most part just watched.  Hopefully I can get my hands dirty the next time.

All I have had to eat today is McDonalds...so much for my fresh start huh?  I'm not too terribly disappointed in myself because I am still within my points.  I haven't eaten dinner yet, and I have 15 points left.  This morning I woke up way late, and stopped on my way into clinical and got a sausage mcmuffin for 13 points and a hashbrown for 4.  On the way back, I picked up a 10 piece chicken nugget for 10 points, and apple dippers with caramel for 2 points.  I had about 10 minutes to change and leave for work when I got home, so that was my excuse for stopping.  I'm starving right now, but I don't even want to walk into the kitchen because I'm afraid I'll eat everything in site.  I do have a plan of what I am going to make (chicken rice), I just have to go in there and stick to it.  I also don't want to go in there because it is HOT!  We don't have central air, we just have a window air conditioner in the bedroom.  That is where we spend most all of our time during hot summers like the one we have been having.  We just shut the door and turn the bedroom into an icebox.

I get so crabby when it is hot...for any that don't know, in Michigan, its not the heat that'll kill you, its the humidity.  You walk outside and the heat/humidity just takes your breath away.  Yuck!  My manager at work is always cold.  So today, she says "is anyone else cold?? I'm freezing!" I'm like "Nope, I even have my fan on!"  (I have this teeny fan that I put wherever I'm working that day)  Later on I was starting to feel hot.  When I went to the back to get my purse, I saw that the air conditioning was turned off...instead of raising the temp, she turned it OFF!  Seriously? I was a little peeved.  I'm wearing about the coolest outfit I can for working at a bank...there is not taking off layers or anything to cool down...why don't people who are cold put on a sweater?!  But I can't say that because she's the boss...Ugh, hopefully she doesn't do that again the rest  of the week because we aren't supposed to get a break from this weather!
