My last one for July? Really? That's insane! There are only 3 more days left this month... :O
1. Managed to get out of the house a few times this week! On Tuesday saw Despicable Me 2 again which was fun. Had Panda Express after barely and the food wasn't so fresh so that sucked but still not a bad night! Friday tried to go to a concert in Carlsbad. It only ended with us sitting in Jack in the Box, Starbucks and then realizing the church we were supposed to park by had moved (we found it after we had given up and were heading to get food and go home). Oh well it wasn't a bad day. And there lies the train station we went past last weekend. I swear I will never look at this area the same again knowing there is a train track hidden in the mountains with stops along the way. Yesterday among our usual church and shopping we tried out "Smash Burger" which was a good burger place. If we try Five Guys I will have completed my new 3 places to try (The Habit in San Diego was the 1st one we tried that few months ago).
2. The weather this week has been so nuts. Some days its warm, some days its cloudy. Few nights ago people in Orange County were getting actual rain and storms. The kind you only see during the Summer in other states not California. People forget we are in the desert too like Arizona but everything is less dramatic out here. We can still get tornados but monsoons don't exist often and big bad storms are even more rare. Awe Cali so strange still to me...
3. Well I have no job, still. This week B&N that I applied with emailed me to tell me they went with someone else or the job had closed. The thing is they didn't say WHICH B&N it was. I have applied in the past two months to at least 10 to 12 different stores. I have no idea who it was. Funny you'd think they would tell me that...how hard is it to say we are the store in blah blah city or mall or something. Also UE was freaking me out. Last weekend I found out it was out earlier then thought. Well yesterday they sent me 2 letters. One telling me I had my extension do nothing but the thing is its less. It went from $88 per week ($176 every two which is how I am paid) to $73 per week. I had promised myself to do taxes out this time around so it wont affect me as bad next year (already worried about not doing this for the first 6 months). So I figure my checks will be $131 now. I am making do. I already planned my checks from now till end of Sept. I am grateful for even some money even if its tighter and chances of saving for anything is gone. That includes bunk beds. Guess I will have to wait till I get a job (and I hope that's soon my sanity is already gone and I'm worried how much longer I can keep doing this!). I am now hopeful for November for Petsmart opening and September for Walmart. Come on job I need you more than ever!
4. Workouts this week were very slim and not there. I did ONE workout a real one on Thursday. I was still recovering on Tuesday from the weekend and took another day off. I meant to do one yesterday but bed too late Fri night I chose sleep over working out. I will be back I promise to doing them this week starting tomorrow. But one Zumba and a walk and I could tell how out of shape I was from not working out for two weeks. Even if last weekends Comic Con whipped my butt and kept me tired it didn't do much for workouts. I need to keep doing them all the time. Constantly. Oh well I'm not giving up!
5. A week ago almost on Monday, my cousin Jenny and my 2nd cousin Jordyn made a visit here. Jordyn who now lives in CO is expecting her first baby in a few months. Well it was fun hanging out. Weird her having a baby before me and so much younger (shes about 10 plus years younger then me) plus this is the first time a 2nd cousin has had a kid. I only have a few second cousins. So I guess the baby is either my 3rd cousin or my 3rd cousin once removed. How does that work? It sounds so pirate like that's where you hear it a lot Jack Sparrow "2nd cousin twice removed"huh? LOL. Anyways Jordyn is great very fun. Her and Jenny share a sense of humor. I haven't hung out with her like that probably since when we lived in Anaheim and Grandma was still alive. It was a fun 3 hrs they here and then they gone. She will be flying back to CO this week she stayed an extra week and leaves on Wed.
Well there you go. Been a long week. And a long month. And next time I write it will be August...weird world I live in for sure.
