Realizing today is the last one of these for September. This month has really flew by hard to believe it. And now we are having another heat spell in September. It super hot inside right now. And the fan feels like nothing. Work wont be much more fun since a/c is so not there. But what can I do. Well stay cool hopefully cooler than we are here in Southern Cali...
1. GYM this week was kinda a lot more than I thought would happen. Yeah! And more at my GYM too. The Planet Fitness by me. First I went alone before work on Monday. I had to be there early so I thought why not the GYM. It was a mistake in some ways because I was so tired and I had to work after and had just worked 3 days in a row. But I did go for like 45min. Then almost got late to work. Funny stuff. Thursday we were going to do our GYM but my sister sadly got cut early so she came and met me at ours. We had a nice interesting workout. Then yesterday Saturday we did our GYM first time this week. Had a nice workout. I am slowly but surely building muscles, getting faster on the treadmill and loving the GYM. I wish we had a pool especially since its so freaking hot out but otherwise no complaints.
2. School this week we are in week 5 going on week 6 this week. Which means we are just a few weeks away from the next classes I am taking. Currently 1 and maybe another shall see if they ever post book info and I can afford the book. My sister is also taking this class so we can share the book if she gets in and I can afford to stay in. But anyways. My other 2 online classes are alright. An odd mix. I hate doing this all online I miss being on PC campus. I will see it in like 2 weeks for my mid term but that is all the time I will see it for till December! Sigh. Oh well carry on. Will be back for more in the Spring. Hard to believe a year ago we had already done our first episode of Palomar Live and getting ready for the 2nd my first time on TV ever. Gulp. But it was so fun I don't know why I was so afraid. :)
3. Work this week was a bit more when I added a day. I worked a 6hr on Sunday, a 6hr on Monday, a 4hr on Wednesday, an 8hr on Thursday and that it. I asked for Saturday off for the race we doing and then we couldn't do it :( so I did not work Friday or Saturday much needed time off. I slept in a lot on Friday getting 12hrs of much needed sleep. :)
4. Did Disneyland and California Adventure on Tuesday the 20th (also just 3 months till my next birthday yikes). We only there 1 to 9pm but was still very exhausting. Didn't ride Tower of Terror. They closed and then when we made it back hour before park closing the line too long to wait and we so tired. Very bummer time. I hope to do it for Halloween or whenever maybe next month. We are trying to make it back once a month shall see if we can. But anyways. So we rode just 2 rides in Cali Adventure. And in Disneyland we rode 4. Including Haunted Mansion which is all holiday now very cool. And never before rode the space mountain galaxy Halloween version very creepy actually. LOL. Sad didn't make Matterhorn again or Indiana Jones. It was hot and sticky and did not rain there but did at home. Glad no rain but really truly miserable weather. I wondered why I brought a jacket and pants. I put pants on before we left and took off again before we drove off it too hot even for a shirt. Tank top and shorts would have done the whole day. But fun time glad we finally got to go since June haven't been!
5. Felt odd doing Harbor Days this year. We haven't been there since 2011 and since this year is now lining up just like 2011 we did it exactly to the date and day again. Only for like 45min but it still fun. A nice little ride my favorite part on the double deck bus. I call it double dutch. Heck. I call it Knight Bus and think of Harry Potter ;)
Well I am off to do stuff then go to work. Hard to believe its been 8 years as of the 24th we got Jackie & Rocky. God works in mysterious ways. We wanted kittens in 2007 then didn't. We were planning on getting gerbils. We had 2 cats and a dog we didn't need no more cats. But we couldn't find them a home and they grew on us and we love them so I am glad even if they were not planned for us they are with us now. Life would be lonely without some cats in it with Maggie and Princess now gone. And it would be kinda dull honestly. Love you two! See you all in October have a nice week!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, September 18th 2016)
I pause to say sorry this is SUPER late. 2 days? Really? I haven't actually seen my computer since Friday so there you go. Hope your week last and this as we are in it are doing alright.
1. September 11th is 15 years ago and I paused again to recall that day. The horror, the fear, and I was so young. Just 21 I turned 22 later that year. I recall everything about that day and how it made me feel. How it left me wanting to do something. How I ended up in NYC May the following year for my first mission trip and only one for school. My first plane ride. How I saw Ground Zero up close and very personal. How I saw the hurt of the city and met the firemen who lost so many. Yes I will always remember 9/11 I ask we always remember for those we lost. How sad how far our nation is from each other we were so close that day and weeks and months later. And now we are so very much not. RIP to all we lost that day!!
2. Work was not a busy one. Just 3 sad days. Again less than 20hrs. I am kinda over this. I did pick up a shift for next week which will add to my last one for September. This is good because frankly having 3 checks in September then my first in October not till after so much is due I have to pay stuff on this last check that I shouldn't till next month including storage, the credit card and so on. So more is better. Not doing the race next month but we ARE doing one in November hurrah.
3. GYM is fun when we can go. Only twice again last week! I went on Thursday with my sister. Then on Friday night by myself while I waited for her. 2 in a row I over did it on Thursday and felt the pain of 2 days in a row badly at work on Saturday. Ha. Oh well I love the GYM getting in shape isn't fun but the process is. No complaints.
4. School is going okay online. I still miss seeing my campus every week. I will be back in a few weeks for my mid term but till then I carry on my 2 online classes. I have 1 more coming up in a few weeks and possibly a 4th class. It would be awesome to finish with 12units but no promises. I am trying.
5. 5 years since we moved to California again. It has been a heck of a trip and I have no good from it. NOT enough to say hey this is why this happened. I thought something would happen. But as the first year rolled around and another and another. I still have NO clue why God brought us back. Maybe in heaven one day I can find out. Because frankly on earth it is never happening.
Well that is all. Lots going on this week. Till next weekend will try to not be so late. Have a good one everyone!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, September 11th 2016)
Unsure why I ended up doing this later then planned sorry! I was going to do this like on Saturday but ended up not going online at all this whole weekend. That is how crazy my week was.
1. Took my dog to the vet on Sunday the 4th so a week ago. The vet which is her vet I haven't seen her in months well she said that not only is Rainbow NOT better but they unsure why. So she took her off her drops (which were running out anyways) and had me start putting a cream in her eye twice a day. I will be doing that till this coming week on Tuesday. Then Wednesday go back in no meds that day and do a dry eye test. We are trying to figure out what is causing this and how to stop it. I am just avoiding at all cost going outside Banfield to a dog eye doctor which would cost way more. Just to see the vet would be $150 and that doesn't cover anything that could be prescribed to do. So the longer I am with BF where visits are free (cause I pay $53 a month) and everything is discounted. I love my girl I want her better. I want the worst and only health thing to be her heart. The fact she keeps getting things this year just makes me sad. :(
2. Did the GYM only twice last week and this week isn't shaping up to be different. We barely went on Monday but that was for our free pizza on 1st Monday of the month. Then we worked out for like an hour on Thursday. And then I worked out alone at the GYM by my job on Saturday. Swear its harder now with me not going to school in person much and only working a few times a week therefore limiting chances I can go to the GYM without my sister. I prefer to go with her but I will do either I am okay doing either of them. So there you go. Our race we were doing on the 24th isn't happening anymore it filled up and closed on the 6th I had no idea till very last minute. Now I'm not working for no reason at all. We HOPE to do the one next month but that is still way up in the air. I will have the $$ barely now for that one because we not doing the one on the 24th I can use for that but my sister is unsure.
3. Work this week not that much. I am now working just 3 days a week and under 20hrs a week for last week and the next 2. I don't know why my boss made it sound like he was going to keep giving me 20hrs a week even when in school and now I am making 14-17 if that. And most are closings where hours aren't promised. For closings you get a half hour you may or not get after store closes. If its been slow we have to leave fast or if we done early we have to leave fast. So I never count the half hour that I am scheduled as promised. Which sucks when I am just doing closings. If I do 3 closings a week I could lose up to 1.5 scheduled hours. I am always so tired I am like this sucks but I don't care. Closing is exhausting. I have 4 days of no work this week I need to spend 4 days looking for a new job hopefully closer to home. And prefer no more retail or customer service it just drains me you have no idea till you do it for 18 years off and on.
4. School this week just online. I am doing okay so far in my 2 online classes. I added 1 more so I am up to 4 possibly. But at this point I could still end with just 9units. I don't have the $$ yet for the last class just added and no idea yet what kind of book it is. So that is why I am unsure. I do have my book for my other fast track one. I used my $$ from the school for that one. I have a small amount of $$ left from my $200 unspent but books are usually way more at the school and that would mean going down there to get that too. Which is harsh since I am not in school. But I miss going I Feel like I am not in school at all this semester this is such a one time thing. I need to start doing some Alice Courses they are free things to learn. I just wish I was more organized and able to do things that I need to do. Me and my ADD ugh.
5. Monday we did not do much for dads birthday which was on Wednesday. First we went to the Vista water park "The Wave". Its such a small water park but not cheap. However my sister had free tickets so we went for 2hrs in the morning. They close soon for the season but was open on Labor Day. So we did that just 2hrs. Then came and met my parents at The Habit my dads choice for dinner. We had fun there. We were going to go to Boomers and play mini golf but for the life of me I don't get it so packed we would have had to wait forever just to play. We had 2 BIG parties ahead of us and no clubs. So we just left bummer :( Got our free pizza and came home to nap for a few hours. Wednesday dad turned the big 68 celebrated with my mom eating out. I didn't get him much cause frankly I am broke. Sorry dad!
This time 5 years ago we were about to pack up our truck the final things and take off. We left for California around 8pm in AZ time and drove the 6hrs in the night arriving at our house early morning the next day. Its been exactly 5 years since I last saw Arizona in our area. It was nice going back last year even if just in Yuma but just not the same. I wish I knew why we had to move. I wish I understood these past 5 years. I wish understand just one thing with my crappy life but I don't. Hoping for good things soon. See you all in a week!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, September 4th 2016)
Welcome to September! So far been a busy month for me but not so busy with some stuff. How it goes. This month is 2 birthdays, plus grandmas birthday (balloon to the sky per norm awe). Also we saw good bye to Summer as Fall begins and Labor Day which is tomorrow.
1. Work this week not so much. My first of many weeks where I hardly work at all. This truly sucks. I need to stop complaining and start doing something about it. I can only complain when I have looked for a real job, applied and still stuck at mine. Was cool yesterday for our *credit* goal I popped two balloons in back for getting two people to get credit cards. One was a candy bar (I love snickers) and the other was a $5 gift card for starbucks. I am excited I wanted that one more than any of the other prizes (including extra time on a break, a thank you, a free water). So that was cool. I am off today which is odd I am never off on a Sunday unless requested. Next week I am literally working only on the weekend Sunday then the following Friday & Saturday. I can work btw Tuesday & Thursday. And coming soon limited morning shifts on Monday & Wednesdays. That doesn't mean I will get hours. 20 is bad now looking at 14 to 15 for last week, this week and next. Meaning my 2nd & 3rd checks in September will be crappy. Sucks cause now I cant more than likely do the beach run next month I can barely do the one we plan to do on the 24th of this month.
2. GYM only did twice this week sadly. We did on Wednesday ended my school day and hot day out with GYM time. Then didn't go again till Saturday after work. Kinda nice to be back in Vista but the more I go the more I can see what that newer GYM does and does not have that ours does in OS. No complaints. I like going few times a week. No matter what I am still doing more workouts then I ever did without the GYM that's a well spent $20 a month.
3. School is turning out to be different then planned. First off I had an interview on Tuesday for FOX5 San Diego News. It was set up literally last minute on Monday. My sister took me down. While I am still hopeful I could be picked. They interviewed 25 people including me for ONE position. Cause its paid and they used to take 13. I am betting ABC is the same one had I gotten an app done for them. So I am not so hopeful. Then same day as that I found out that I cannot intern on campus. I thought for sure if FOX not work out I could do on campus. So now I have no in person classes and no internship. This is a super disappointing semester. I am holding tight to my 2 online classes and 1 more in October. And will finish the semester at 9units. None are DBA so I am hoping and praying they don't I plan to do 2 or more in the Spring. If I could only be a student who was able to go 4 days a week and just work 3 days. A joke seeing that is all I am getting next week but I cant afford this. I cant afford to be a student only and barely work. I have too much going on money wise and stretching EVERY check is hard. Anyways will miss seeing PC more than twice this semester for my mid term and final for my psy class :(
4. Took my dog to the vet on Monday. Negative on her eye screen. Since we don't know what is going on we take her back again on Sunday. Yes today. But will talk more about that next week. But yeah just over this. Been going on for a full month now and that was on top of the 2 weeks the first time she got the injury back in June. I love my baby I hate seeing her suffer and hate taking her in weekly she hates this as much as me.
5. 5 years ago we did not see what was coming. September 1st 2011 our lives were changed greatly. We were forced to begin our pack up and leave our apartment by Sept 10th. It was stressful trying to get boxes and just get the heck out of there. Our lives stolen from us. Thankful for our friend helping us out with extra $$ we needed for our truck. More as we go along since we are still 5 years out from our move. But it was so hard saying good bye. I remember still our last church service and I cried really cried. I loved our church and saying good bye broke my heart. AZ left such an impression on us and we had to leave it so quickly we never got to say good bye properly to half the places and still sad for places we never got to see once. Our lives these past 5 years have not been easy and I still to this very day do not understand why God allowed this to happen. I have not seen even once the reason we were forced to come back home like that.
Anyways. Gloom and doom we move on. This week will be odd. No school in person, hardly working and dads birthday on Wednesday. Which we celebrating tomorrow since we both off. Till next weekend peace out everyone have a good one. And a safe happy Labor Day. Grateful every year I have a job on this day I recall the years I did not (2010, 2011, 2013) of recent...
