Weekend Plans...

Friday is finally upon us!

It has felt like such a long week and I am so ready for some rest and relaxation!

I plan on staying home the entire weekend. I want to clean my room, do my hair and just relax. I want to sleep as much as I possibly can.

If I can acheive all of these things, it will be a truly successful weekend.

It's Happening...

My life is finally starting to work out the way I need it to. We were told of our out-of-cycle increases today, which will come into effect this coming payday. With this increase, I will start saving money every month in order to put down a deposit on a car. I plan on having a car by March or April of next year. Then after that, I will be saving some more money in order to get my own flat. Also, I will need to buy a few things for my flat, like curtains, a fridge, a TV and a couch. I would like to be moving in April of the following year.

It has taken me a year to heal from the events of last year. In the last few months, I have been making plans as to how I am going to go about in rebuilding my life, in replacing the possessions I lost, like my car and my home. Now I finally have a timeline.

I am happy.

A New Favourite Website

I like this website because it is about New York City and what people read when they are on the trains. It's a good place to get ideas on what to read!

Things Are Happening...

There are tears at the office today. Not mine. The "bad apple" here at the office was crying earlier. There has been talk that she is on her way out. I am trying to stay away from the drama, even though I would like to know what's going on. But I will be strong and stay away.

I have started on a healthy eating spree. It's for a number of reasons... First is that I want to lose a bit of weight. Next, I want to save a bit of money. And thirdly, I am so bored of all the food choices I have around me at the office. So I am packing a healthy lunch every day. Today I have some chicken, some Pro-Vita's, some cheese, fruit and a yoghurt. So far, so good!

I woke up at three this morning to the sounds of cats fighting. Even my cats were upset by it. They were on the window sill, growling softly while all the commotion was happening outside. I looked out the window but couldn't see anything. And then obviously, it took me a long time to get back to sleep! When I finally got up for work this morning, I was convinced it was Friday. It was very disappointing to find out that it's only Thursday!

I started it a while ago, read the first chapter and left it. Now I've started it again and am loving it!

A New Day...

The best part of Monday was falling into my bed and drifting off to a wonderful, restful sleep. I woke up feeling like a new person, ready to take on the day.

My boss is going to be here from Durban today and tomorrow and I am really looking forward to seeing him. I like my boss!

I also got the results of my Assessor and Moderator course. I still have to submit some extra work, but I'm sure that it will all be ok once I've submitted that. Let's hope so!
