I made homemade whole wheat bread in the crockpot last night. That was fun, but I need to make some adjustments to the technique and recipe for next time. I don't have anything to eat with my bread as well, so I'll be coming up with some interesting meals so it doesn't go to waste.

I've gotten behind on taking my Magnesium and I can tell the difference. The probiotics are still working, but there is a difference and we'll leave it at that.

Today, we will have my party to celebrate my leaving the company. I've bought cupcakes from a bakery around the corner, and my coworkers have promised me hot wings and fries. This will be my first meat in a month, so I won't have too much. I brought my own lunch so I won't be forced to feel up on the bad stuff.

I sent an email to HR yesterday asking for them to terminate my employment this Friday. I pointed out that it's the last day of the pay period and that would make for a clean break. Really, I just need a few days off before committing to the next several years of employment. HR hasn't responded.

Alright, I've got some light work to accomplish today. Let me get to it.

TOM was in town, and I had to feed it. Yet, despite stuffing my face with popcorn, dark chocolate, wine, frozen fruit, and vegan fast food, I had an unexpected and very pleasant drop to my newest low.

I also had a very good run accompanied by boy tenant on Saturday. We had an average pace of 11:17 min/mile and ran 2.62 miles. My improvement was that I didn't walk.

It was nice to have a running buddy, and certainly funny that I wore him out so badly as he was so sure that my pace would be a walk compared to him. All that, "when I was in the Marines I could do this/that." Poor ex-military folk; they have the hardest time letting go. He took a shower and went back to sleep LOL.

So I took my new XL compression pants back to Old Navy and exchanged them for a L. I'm still in shock that I could pull the L up. They're not a perfect fit yet, but at least they won't come down. I'm so excited to lose a pant size!

My tax refund should be deposited this week, and my goal is not to shop with it. I already jumped the gun and started shopping this past weekend. I needed the new bag but I didn't need anything else that I bought. This money goes to paying off the last of the roof repair (here's too the issue finally being fixed).

Alright, I think the theme for this week is control. Time to get to work.

T-minus 13 Days until I start the new job :-D. I sat down and made a budget for my projected new income so I don't get into a spending frenzy and shop my way into new debt and two-year contracts.

I was afraid that the magic would be gone if I put the budget to paper, and I was right. It was definitely that moment when a dream becomes reality; it is still amazing and fantastic yet not as dazzling and brilliant. Paper has a way of doing that.

Now, I'm in "knowledge is power" mode. I know the illusion behind the magic trick. Now, it's time to use what I know and what I've been through to my advantage!

I'm not going to get a new car right away. I'm going to get a new bike first while I pay off two of my top priority debts. My mom has been trying to give me her car for a long time now so she can have an excuse to get a new vehicle too. I just texted her and told her that I'm open to taking it in a few months.

It's going to feel so good to get around on a bike again. I'm already seeing great physical progress from being a dietary vegan. Maybe there's a duathlon in my future?

I'm looking forward to my next weigh in since it will be post-period. I did hop on the scale just to see if being raw vegan did anything for me in the short three days that I gave it a try. There wasn't any change of note for those three days.

Alright, time to read through my termination package and take care of some other side items today. I took all of my personal items home yesterday so they are out of the way. The clock it ticking down.

I am feeling so good today, buddies! My blood sugar is back to normal vegan range LOL. Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers and well wishes because that was difficult to go through.

So, I am excited that I have T-minus 14 days until I start my new job! Handing over my two-week notice was very easy. My manager was wrapping up my annual review with me and commenting how exceptional my work is and how much I am an asset to the team. Then she went on to say that she has a lot of talent on this team and knows she is going to start losing us one by one to better opportunities and better pay.

I took that opportunity to tell her that I have already been stolen away, and I'm leaving the company. I handed her my two-week notice and she exclaimed, "I knew it! No one dresses up so well and takes 2 hours in the middle of the day unless it's for an interview!" She said when she saw me that day she went home and told her husband that she is about to lose someone soon.

She's really excited for me and sad that she has to find someone else, but understands the reality of the situation. Of course, this office wouldn't be this office without a little shady activity. They won't let me take any days off during my last two weeks. My manager was okay with my request and tried to get it approved and was denied.

To be proactive, I'm already packed up. I brought my old lady grocery cart and am hauling all of my personal property home today. I don't know what they might try to pull before I leave, so I want to be halfway out the door in case something happens.

I'm just really thrilled right now.

I am officially off Raw Til 4 and very happily returning to my cooked vegan meals. After the night I had all I can say is "yeesh!"

My blood sugar is just now starting to lower thanks to my trusty oatmeal, but I did suffer most of the afternoon and evening with high blood sugar. The pressure in my head, the dizzy spells, that constant ringing in my ears is decreasing. Now, I have a mild headache, but I can deal with it.

I researched my problems while on Raw Til 4 and found a FAQ that talked about what I was experiencing. Basically, with my issues I should transition slowly into Raw Til 4 and slowly introduce the sweeter fruits. Funny that I couldn't find that info when I was so enthusiastic about trying out the challenge.

In other news, I got the job!!!!!! I got the job, and due to their benefits I got more than the salary I desired. I can do so much now, this is a huge blessing. I can't wait to start. Conveniently, I have my annual review today in a few minutes. I'll hand over my two-week notice when it's over.

Okay, got a lot of work to do before I wrap up with my employer of the last 8.5 years. Toodles!

Onward...
