Day two

Today was a great day. I actually felt like I looked half way decent this morning. I had a black dress on with a Missook jacket, tights and black Nike Air Pumps. I had to rush to the office and finish up the policies for Mr. K. I am busy at work, a very good sign. Drove out to Melissa. I had never been out there, though I think that when we drove to TX from MA, we went by there. I can't believe all the construction on 121. The interchange is going to be ENORMOUS! You can see that there are ramps all over the place.
Melissa is really nice and quiet. I enjoyed the ride, and had a wonderful chat with my client. He was very friendly and told me some stories about when he operated a towing service for AAA in So. California. I saw pictures of him with the tow truck that had the AAA symbol on it. This is the one part of my job I really love, talking to people and getting to know them, building relationships. I wish I had more friends here. It is so different from MA> Back east, you could just stop over some one's house, and you would always feel welcome. Here, you have to call, make an appointment, blah blah blah. I miss the neighborly feeling.
I hope to make more friends this year. This is my resolution. I really am lonely and miss the companionship of having someone to visit and talk to.
Well the new eating plan is going well. I didn't feel hungry all day, and in fact actually enjoyed my meals. I went dumpster diving at the Kroger next door. This is a term my mom and I use when we search out food that has been marked down. I got little gourmet cucumbers, broccoli, spring mix, crackers, cottage cheese, cream cheese, some chopped up peppers, bacon all for $18!
I was feeling pretty smug about it, but when I got home, my mom had the same stuff! Pretty funny. Mom cooked a bunch of food for me. She got the recipes on the group website. The corn chowder was great. I gave her a hug. She has a good heart and is very helpful to me.

I have 3 people coming in tomorrow for policies. I am feeling pretty confident that I might have a great month. I could use a boost. Well, time to relax with Charlie. I am looking forward to a new day.
