Yesterday I did groceries. though, it wasn't the chore I thought it would be... the chore it USUALLY is... I made a list, but I lost it on the way TO the grocery store. rrrg... I think I remembered most of the stuff on it, Definitely not all of it. I still can't wait to cook it all up :) mmm mmm mmm

Today, I'm at work. There's a charity breakfast for the United Way. it's not the breakfast part that annoys me. I have a lobby. a 'reception area'. it's about 20 feet by 25 feet. there's 5 people in my area. 5 Women. 5 Chatty giggling women. not to mention all the people that are coming through. I really hope I don't end up killing someone by the time this shit is over.
it's really between the perfume and the chatting..
1 hour and 15 minutes left...

So today I was late for work. I'm not sure if the alarm didn't go off or I subconsciously turned it off or what, but I didn't notice the alarm. I woke up at 6:04. 15 minutes after I normally LEAVE for work. so that was pretty interesting... I haven't been late since January. I do feel bad, but what happened, happened. can't really change it now. just need to move on.
Today, I'm pretty awake. of course. lol I slept in! hahaha
it rained last night on my walk. it wasn't too pleasant, but it was nice to cuddle Tim when I got home. lol

Another Monday

Monday, Monday.
I'm not a Monday hater. I'm actually pretty cheery on Mondays. This morning when I woke up though, I was SUCH a baby. Freezing cold and whiny. I didn't want to get out of bed, I didn't sleep that well. I just wanted a re-do of Sunday. To just relax and do my own thing. Maybe have a little nap. Clean up a bit.
But no. Work. Always work. Sometimes it's okay to work a little extra. Not today. I'm definitely going to do some housework when I get home, Not really sure how much, but 'some' anyway.
I think Tim should have his people over more. like every other week. just to motivate me to clean. I am in serious need of motivation. Just having a clean house isn't enough. As much as I Love it when it's clean, it's the getting there that's annoying.
And then there's my sewing room. Maybe I'll start posting pictures of it weekly, just to show some progress. to 'motivate' me to make some progress.

speaking of Motivation... these 2 sayings just came upon me. I don't know if I've heard them before or if my mind just made them up.

Weightloss will only go as far as you go.

To see real changes, you have to make real changes.

I guess they're both kinda saying the same things, but they make sense. I've been eating out a lot lately. not like every day or anything, just 2 or 3 times a week. which is a lot for me especially because I don't have a whole lot of money.

I'm going to start making REAL changes.

another day!

Today it is Friday. I work in an office, therefore Friday, EVERYONE is happy. Awesome :)
Also, today is goodie day. I've already had a banana chocolate chip muffin, a LOVELY concotion of spices and pita and oil, baked to perfection, which I believe is the Lebanese equivalent to Bruschetta, and a smile cookie from Tim Hortons. I really could go for another piece of that spices bread. mmmmm
I'm feeling pretty darned good today. Just in an easy going mood. Yesterday, a friend and I walked 5 Kilometres! 5! it didn't even seem like that long! awesome. I have to get my fat ass moving. AND I have to get her not- so fat ass moving. It'll be good for the both of us.
Saturday we're going dress shopping. that's tomorrow! yay! we're going out for breakfast, and then we're going to go look at Wigs, and then wedding dresses. not going to try any on though. just look. it's mostly for her wedding. mine's not for another 2 years, and i'm going to make most of my dress. I'm not sure about the top of it though. I have an idea of what I want from under the boobs down, I have no idea about straps, sleeves, anything. bleh. lol
I have a lot of stuff to do today. Work, (doing that right now, can't you tell? lol) clean, work on my puzzle more, (Lucille Ball's hair is a pain in my ass, but it's so pretty) ok, that's pretty much it, but I have a lot of cleaning to do...

In darkness, Vision!
xo

a long, long time

man, I haven't posted on here in forever. a lot of things have been going on in my life- things that I'd rather not talk about at the moment. on a 'Nice' note, today, I am officially common-law. Today I have been living in a conjucal relationship with my lovely significant other for 3 years. we've been together for 9 years, but today it's official. Yay!

Moving on :P

I've been doing a lot of soul searching lately, too. who am I? I haven't exactly found the answer to that yet, but I've figured out that I am me. A 24 year old female. An individual. A Canadian. A lover. A leader.
I've found lately that I like making people feel good asbout themselves. it makes me feel good. I work with people during the day. not the public, but in an office building. with about 200 other people. I'm the receptionist. I greet everyone as they come in, and i try to compliment as many of them as possible. genuine compliments though. something that I actually like.
Maybe I wish people would do it more to me.

I'm reading a book by Christopher Penczak called 'The inner temple of witchcraft" I'm reading it because I want to develop myself internally as a witch. i have always been interested in the craft and so, I am reading this book. there's certain 'lessons' or things you should achieve within this book. one of them is writing 3 pages in a journal every day. a blog is a journal, right? just kind of a public one :) so throughout the day (on most days) I'm going to try to write as much as I can.

ahoy...

Life is going so damn fast... a lot of the time I wish I could just slow down time. And not just while I'm at work. I do, for the most part, like my job though. I do security in an office. so, I'm basically a receptionist. Good hours, not so good pay. But I'd rather be poor and happy.
I'm getting married in a little over 2 years, getting pretty exited. lol no real plans for it yet, we have a general idea of what we want though. outdoors, BBQ style food, cupcake cake, lol costumes... I have no idea what my dress will look like though... we'll see... haha
Life.
too damn short.
effing enjoy it.
