it's November?

wholy shit balls... it's November?!? like the 11th month... like 6 weeks before christmas... wholy shit where have I been? I seriously suck for not blogging in the last MONTH... it's been so crazy... I've seriously done NOTHING. like... nothing... I'm going to take some advice a friend gave me a little while ago- Make lists. like a list of things you want to accomplish that day/week/month. This is a great idea. why didn't I do it before? I want to start blogging more, my page was lonely for over a month!! so here's what I want to get done today:

Work.
blog.
clean for 45 minutes
figure out what's for dinner... pork chops maybe?
get corn syrup
put up christmas tree.
shower
maybe make rice krispie treats.

That's my list so far for today. and I'm half done 2 of those things. (Working and blogging of course. 45 minutes doesn't seem like a lot of cleaning, but it's better than nothing. it'll allow me to do 15 minutes in the kitchen, living room, and main bathroom. if I feel more ambitious after that I'll do more, but I think 45 minutes a day is a good goal. this weekend I didn't clean at all. lol. I cleared some stuff off of the counter, but that's it. useless!!
The corn syrup I need for the rice krispie treats. They're made with peanut butter and it's Tim's mom's recipe. we'll see how it goes... lol
yay! we got our christmas tree! freaking finally!! yesterday, I went to Walmart, and they're SO dis- organized there!! the thing i hate the most about ANY store is if you are an employee, and I as a customer, ask you about something, and you have no idea, PLEASE... for my sanity tell me that you have no idea!! there's nothing i hate worse than someone that pretends they know what they're talking about..anyway, after over an hour and a half of being there, and just about to give up and go home, I went back for one more look and there they were. NOT where they're supposed to be of course, but in the middle of the aisle on a skid. but i got one!! Woot!!

is all for now :)

the plan for today....

so yesterday, I didn't really end up doing anything. I got up with Tim and stayed for a while after he left for work and then I went back to bed. and slept til 14:00!!! 14:00! BAAAAD Trina... so today I have a plan.
now Til 13:00 play on the computer and drink coffee.
13:00-13:30 Clean in the living room and Kitchen
13:30-14:00 tackle the sewing room
14:00-14:30 Break! work on the puzzle or play on the computer
14:30- 15:30- Clean upstairs Bedroom, bathroom, more sewing room
15:30-16:00- Break!
16:00- Tim gets home- plan and make dinner.
yay! after Tim gets home I'm not sure what we're going to do, but we'll figure it out. I think there's a movie he wanted me to watch. lol

I should get started! Toodles!!

procrastination at it's finest

Ok, so I haven't written anything in a couple of days. Wednesday, I forgot I had a meeting in the afternoon. oh, the joys of being a union rep.

I also haven't worked on my sewing room at all this week. hopefully this weekend I'll get some time in there. I've just been trying to keep the rest of the house mostly clean and ignoring it. I hate that i'm such a procrastinator sometimes. I just have other stuff to do first... I also have to figure out some way to take off the closet doors. I made some beautiful pink curtains, and i need to get them up there soon. I think that'll make me want to be in there more.

Yesterday I ended up working until 16:45. Usually, I get off at 13:30. on Monday, when I went to Waterloo, My co-worker relieved me at 12:15. so 1 hour and 15 minutes early. this was in exchange for me covering for him yesterday. he had a dentist's appointment, at 14:00. so basically he owes me 2 hours. so on Monday, I get to leave at 11:30, which is UBER exiting!! I really do have the best co-worker ever.

So, Tim wants to get a Kitten. no, not just any kitten, a $700 kitten. I think he's undecided as to whether he wants a Bengal, or an Abyssinian. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE cats. I have a cat. she's wonderful. and i'm not opposed to getting another cat. I've known that Tim has wanted a kitten for a while. A little orange boy. I think it'd be good for Haze to have a little brother. just... why spend $700 on a cat? there are SO many kitties having kittens. beautiful kittens. I think Haze was one of those Many Many kittens. that, or she was abandoned. she was almost a year when I got her I think, and she was SO skinny... I just had to keep her. anyway, my point is there are so many kittens that are in need of a home, and are beautiful and fabulous. $700 is a lot of money. A lot of money to us, anyway. We need a new refrigerator. $700 could fix and feed a new cat AND my cat for a year. A YEAR!
