Hmmm... turns out that there's a Team Lead position available in our group. We have about 55 people in our Dev group, and someone higher up the chain left. A team lead took her place, and so the team lead position is open. Applicaitons are due tomorrow.
Interesting to think about being a Team Lead. What would it take to be a team lead? Could I be a team lead? Would I want to be a team lead??
If I don't want to be a team lead, what do I want to be?
Of course, I have a gajillion things going on in my life right now that could possibly conflict with any aspirations of moving up the feeding chain, but I'm still curious as I'm a natural leader. I have no problem just "taking charge" in just about any situation. Oh, and not taking charge in a bossy sort of way, but in an organizing/planning sort of way.

Wellness
At work, we're having Wellness week. For me, it may as well be called Guilt Week. lol
I weigh too much. Not grossly too much in my eyes, but I'm beyond the "overweight" BMI classification and am in the "obese". All my other numbers look good (bp, choloesterol, etc). Just that darned weight.
At one event, there was a thing you could put on that would show you how 20 more pounds would feel. I want the one that shows me how much better 20 LESS pounds would feel. I feel good. Would any improvements in myself be worth the effort to lose 20lbs? Since no one can tell me, I'm talking myself into trying it.
I've weighed this much forever, for at least 10 years, I peeked at my doctor's chart so I know for a fact, and I'm all about facts. Ok, I weighed a little more when pg, but oddly, not much more. All three times, I've come back to rest comfortably at this weight. I have no idea what it would be like to weigh less. I might have to try it.

Personal Growth
I think I'm doing really well. Of course as soon as I say that, something's bound to happen to make it not true, but I'm definitely feeling the 2-steps-forward type of momentum right now instead of those pesky backwards ones.
Tyler's almost sitting up. Derek and Gavin are doing well. I've gotten some work done on my woodchips by the back patio and the side of the house. I even planted some petunias already.
I've got my eye on some outdoor patio chairs... and am trying to figure out if I really should buy them or not. Money doesn't grow on trees, but golly, I *want* to splurge a bit.
