it's October??

it's October! that's insane!! ok, not really, but wow does time fly! Crud, I didn't check the interest rates for this month....
1.9% still. yay! our mortgage is almost at the value we bought the house at. lol still, down $4000 the first year is pretty awesome :)

Last week I ordered some jewelry from Bodycandy.com. 3 sets of plugs and a tongue ring. I can't wait!! they should come this week.

let's see... what else has happened since I wrote last... Someone got fired from work- no big deal, just a drama queen (King?) ...been walking with K. down to 190! woot! lol. yeah. other than that, nothing, really. BOOOORRRINNNGGGG..... lol

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.

Naps...

So I remember stressing how much I love naps. I really do... they're great. they're almost better than 'actual' sleeping...lol.
today I got home from work at about 14:30. I said hi to Haze (my Kitteh) put the peanut butter that I had bought away, and went for a nap. I just woke up. at about 15 minutes to 5. Fucking awesome. I can stay up later tonight with Tim (but not too late) and I'll be nice and rested in the morning.
I do have heart burn, bad breath, and am hungry! so I'm going to go remedy those things.
MUAAAH!
(that was a kiss BTW...)

I wish you all the restedness of a nap!

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!

Mabon

Hello, I hope everyone had a very good Mabon. I didn't do too much, I just took my Fiance out for dinner, and did a home protection Ritual. This was now my second Mabon in my house. it's crazy how time flies. Being a Pagan has helped me realize that things are a lot better in life than I first percieved them to be. That things always turn out the way they should, not always the way you want them to be. Being Pagan has given me the focus to constantly re-assess what's going on in my life. it's good. life is good.

in darkness, light. my friends.
