Now is the time to get back on track. If you aren&#8217;t happy where you are, it&#8217;s time to consider alternatives. <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Today I finally tracked down my mentor and spoke to her about the class.  She didn&#8217;t have a whole lot of time and had no idea what I was talking about so it was clear the director lady hadn&#8217;t spoken to her yet.  When I quickly explained what had gone down she informed me that the class I was hoping to get into was quite a bit further ahead than I had initially thought.  She said she&#8217;d speak to the director and get back to me, so I&#8217;m hoping something will come of it.   If I have to stay with my current group I want to at least get out of the career training.  It&#8217;s just not necessary and is time I could spend doing other things.. like writing blogs.<\/li>\n<li> I have officially gained back every single pound I lost last spring. This sucks..  Now I have to start from the beginning again.<\/li>\n<li> I finally went to the doctor about my ankle, which is still giving me trouble.  She said that I tore ligaments in it and she&#8217;s surprised I was walking around on it from the start.  I have to start physiotherapy to try to speed up the healing process, otherwise I&#8217;m looking at about a year of this discomfort.  Not good if I want to get back to walking to try to lose this weight again.<\/li>\n<li> While I was there she also gave a reference letter for another infertility specialist for a secnd opinion.  She was surprised to hear that the other one was such a downer last time, as apparently many people find him very sympathetic and kind.. which he was previously with us as well.  I&#8217;m starting to think perhaps we caught him on an off day.<\/li>\n<li> Tiny Tim is still alive and kicking!  He&#8217;s still drinking from the eyedropper and his feet are healing nicely.   I&#8217;d say something optimistic but I don&#8217;t want to jinx it.<\/li>\n<li> Net5 is currently showing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvtome.com\/GraceUnderFire\/\">Grace Under Fire<\/a> (1993-1998) reruns for what must be the 15th time since I moved to the Netherlands.  When I groaned and flicked the channel <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvtome.com\/tvtome\/servlet\/ShowMainServlet\/showid-101\/\">Days of Our Lives<\/a> (1965 &#8211; ?) was on. A show I used to watch a lot when I was in high school..  it would appear the kids who were born on the show when I watched it 10 years ago are now 20 years older.  I guess time flies even faster on soap operas&#8230;<\/li>\n<li> The soap opera talk just made me think of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvtome.com\/tvtome\/servlet\/ShowMainServlet\/showid-878\/\">Another World<\/a> (1964-1999).  The only soap opera that was ever worth watching faithfully.<\/li>\n<li> Xander rocks.. as always.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s random update day.
