Welcome to the last one in October. Crazy month for real. Cant believe we are at the end again of another month and just 2 more left in the year...insane!
1. Workouts this week have not really happened. I had pain issues in my tooth that caused me to fail the second time. I just had different excuses. I did a walk and that was it sadly. But hope this week maybe I can do at least one time. Sad when I have two and lose both but life goes on...
2. Work this week. I worked very little. Just last Sunday and Saturday for this week. But that is okay. Turns out things worked out better than I thought they would. This next week starting today more hours and same next week. Hope to get back what I lost and not lose any days for sure.
3. School didnt really happen last week. See next number. But I am still doing online stuff and that is keeping me busy. Not doing so well so far in sociology. The reading is fun but the quiz are not so I need to work on doing better with those. Hope I can pass this class as I want to do more like it next semester and sign ups happen very soon. Shall see. Carry on.
4. Bad tooth pain in my chipped tooth from biting down at night kept me from school on Wednesday. I kind of just got ready and waited for my sister to be done instead sadly missing. Hated that. Went to dentist on Thursday. I have dentical and they will cover a removal but now I am working on finding a place that does such a thing. So there is that. Prayers if you do till I do because that pain is not something I want to repeat again especially not at when I am out and not at home.
5. Finally got an ipad. Very excited. Sure its for school and only ipad 2 but will have fun getting to know it. Been wanting one forever and finally got the means and reason. Still good times there.
well Happy Halloween. Have a good week. See you in November!! And new time too we go back an hour next Sunday DONT FORGET!!!
Every weekend I write down the top 5 things that happened to me from the week it ends on (usually Sundays). Stole/borrowed the idea from author Sarah Dessen. Very fun!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, October 19, 2014)
Coming to you one day late. Sorry about that! Its been that kinda weekend…
1. Workout this week. I had two chances only took one of them. I think it was a smart thing to do but it had to be done! The one time I did workout I pushed myself maybe farther than I should. But I was proud to do that and be okay. This week I am aiming for 2 and that should be great. Hope I get this done and will of course update if I do on the weekend.
2. Worked somewhat this week not so much. I worked on Sunday. Then I worked again on Friday & Saturday. Our work weeks begin on Sunday end on Saturday. So only 3 times this week. I also lost a shift next week so I am down to 2 this week including 1 yesterday and then not again till Saturday. I hate closings I know I say that a lot but they keep throwing them at me. I was okay and got by. I had to go in early both Friday and Saturday as my sister worked earlier. I just hung out at Starbucks and did homework and I was NOT bored. I still have so much to do! Work is work. I am getting by. Hard to believe edging closer to my 8th month at this job. I just realized by time year ends I will be at this job 9 months. And hope that means a nice tax return next year!
3. School is going alright. Finished week 9 pretty busy like. I began my 2 online classes on Tuesday. And I am officially overwhelmed every second I am doing homework and I still have SO much to do before this week ends. I have stuff due both on Wednesday and Friday. Which means I will be busy busy. Found out information on Wednesday about how internships work if I decide to do one in the Spring. You see they DON’T know I have gone to an actual college have a BA degree and a broadcasting school. I know the kind of job I want a PA eventually work in production where I can write and have fun and be behind the scenes. I am unsure if being on camera will work yet. We did some news reading hope I might get to read the teleaprompter next time since I haven’t done that since CSB in 2008. So only like 8 weeks of school left let the crazy begin!
4. My mom had an important surgery on Thursday. It was a trial day all around. Had to be up early to get my sister in her van. She was not happy we here and they not cried a lot and ate nothing. She gone went back to bed. Just before heard mom out and okay. She came home around 7. I was up to get sister from van and my other sister worked. Our baby sitter here to help out with sister. Mom home and healing. Will be a long 6 weeks till she okay… love you mom.
5. With a nice sized check I had the option of saving money or doing what I did. I went with doing what I did. I bought an ipad 2. I don’t care for a fancy new one I just wanted one for school and one with a camera so I went with the 2 not the 1. I paid good got a deal I hope. Its used but good condition and comes with its wire and charger. I was just going to get a case for it and a dummy book to read up but went with my gut on this one. I am nearly out of my check again but I believe worth it. I also had to buy a new wire for charging my ipod because the cheap one I bought on ebay few months ago doesn’t really work anymore. And the originally one is too torn up to be used. So there is that. An arm band was my last splurge. Yeah had fun on that check for sure!
Well that is all for now. One more of these for October. On top of everything else I am doing (work, school) I will be planning to do my nano. So by next week I will be working on ideas for that. I am doing a sequel to last years book easier than new characters but a sequel never done that either. So there you go. I loved last years and really need to edit it into a book I think it was a real winner. However doing nano on top of school and work will be a real piece of work. I remember in 2011 we moved while I was doing nano and I held not one but two jobs (not same time) in that month. Crazy stuff! On with the show. See you all in a week!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, October 12, 2014)
Greetings for week 2 of October! How are you doing? I am doing okay. Hard to believe we are nearly half way through this month. Which means 2014 only has 2 and a half months left...think about it!
1. Workouts this week not much. I did an actual workout on Monday. I was SO proud! I was all set for another one on Friday. I did 2 minutes of running which is amazing since i normally only do that once if that and usually stick to 1 and I havent worked out in 2 weeks. But Friday I ran out of time (no pun intended) and decided to just power walk instead and some bike. Kinda sad I missed that one. My only two for the week. Plus walking for work and of course school and working.
2. Speaking of work it was a crazy week. I only worked 3 times. 1 closing and two not so closing. Last Sunday they wanted me to stay i nearly laughed myself silly as I had homework and was expected to be back by a certain time. I couldnt stay little alone nearly close! I did a closing on Thursday which I do not like much and got off later than I thought so there is that. Yesterday much like the Saturday before it was too busy to get off on time. Sad thing is how close i was. Cost me riding the sprinter. I ended up having to get a ride home as it was dark and the next sprinter wouldnt have come till it was dark. I was not happy about this and just hope I didnt do anything stupid to get off when the line wouldnt end and I couldnt get it to stop.
3. I am so tired. I only put this in because I really am. Between before bed and actual I slept 14hours Sunday night/Monday morning. Than from there I just kept getting lower. On Tuesday another sleep in I got only 7. I got around 4 on Wednesday for school and a nap when I got home. Thursday I got around I think 6hrs maybe. Friday I only got around 7 if that. 5 yesterday and today well today is another week but I got a bit more. Its just been a harsh week. At least last week made sense I was working so many openings. I miss those and wont have them for the next two weeks are all closings.
4. The weather seems to finally beginning to be cooler. I mean it gets hot still inside like 80 something but at night it drops enough for the covers. I still have out both my big and bedtime fan so I am unsure at this point when those will go away. Lets hope for November but earlier is better. I enjoy my cozy covers and like the cooler nights when they happen. Weird isnt just the heat but lack of rain makes me nervous. We are so in need of rain. Last year even we had rain this time of year sometimes. Than again we also didnt have enough in the winter after it being like that. So things like this dont mean anything too early to tell...
5. School is good. On Wednesday I did my green screen and I was spongebob. Our skit lasted about 1min 40sec not bad for 1 page of script. I did the whole thing and than we did it. I didnt know what else to do and went into a leader mode I dont normally lead but I had to and glad it turned out. Online I finished my last assignments for my office class and now it is done. Still have homework for my other two and than this week I begin my 2 new online classes. At least i have most of my books which is good!
Well thats all for now. Will see you all next weekend. This will be a trying week and I am unsure how it will end so there you go. Have a good one!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, October 5, 2014)
Welcome to the 1st of these for October! Wow October is here. Do you know what that means? 2014 is nearly over! Crazy! Been a busy week so on with the show…
1. Starting to wonder why I even bother to put workouts on these things. This week I took ONE walk yes just ONE walk. That is it. Not even a real workout. More get my dog out of the house so she can have fun time. And that was it. Of course I worked a lot and walked to the sprinter 4 out of the 5 days this week that I worked but still…yeah no workouts sadly.
2. Work is busy. I just finished my 31 hour week yesterday. This week I am only doing around 18 hours not as much but adds up nicely with last week and I can say this much: my check will be pretty awesome and enough to save. I am thinking it will go towards school books if nothing else and want to keep doing this as I get more money. Work is alright. I don’t mind working so much or in the mornings or mids just hate closings. So next week will not be much fun. This week I work again on Thursday a closing and Saturday an opening. But then Sunday begins the week of closings. Plus they messed up my schedule having me work Wednesdays when I cant and on Thursday which I asked for off they said they’d fix it just hope I don’t get in trouble cause I was told to “not worry about it.” Anyways…
3. Well just went it began to cool down now its heating up. I hope this little heat spell is gone soon .We are now officially in our fire season and I cant help but thinking of how 2007 right before we moved how bad the fires were around here. So we had a heat spell this weekend. Lucky me I worked most of it but coming out today and the other days you can tell it was hot. Its now mid 80’s inside but not as bad as the last few where it was like 87 this time of night! But middle of the night it gets cool enough to go under the covers and I finally put my warm blanket back on my bed. NOT both of them but my quilt so I am all set there… I love the cooler weather and hope it sticks soon I am really over this heat
4. School is going alright. Just 1 week left of my office class. I screwed up and didn’t do two assignments and I have NO idea how that happened. So I did those late unsure how many points I will get for it. Ironic as I had just done the extra credit. Will see but so far think I am getting either a low B or high C in the class! Anywho one more week of that. Then next week I began TWO new classes. I have the books on their way for sociology should be interesting. I am testing this one out. I took this same class (subject not same exact class) back at Vanguard but that was 2001. I thought about minoring in sociology the study of people and didn’t but now I thought why not take a few classes so this will be the first. I hope to take a few more after this. Online and 8 weeks hope I don’t die that’s like crazy. The book one I am renting the book on my ipod kindle soon as I get paid again…so yeah.
5. Leaving my sadness for last. I miss you Grandma Swank more than I let on. I miss everything about you. This year we let 3 balloons go to you. Sadly only mine made it past the trees by the mission where we ended up going. I wanted to do the beach or something. But we did that and well there was a tree and the two others tied together done after mine went up well they just kind of stuck in the tree. We drove by there the next week and you could see them still up in the tree. Grandma always said she was a bird and now heres proof again. Mine flew the others stayed. Unsure if they still there. I miss her so much though so every year on September 29th our her birthday we think of her and her gone. I think about her more than that but there you go…
Well that is all for now. Been enjoying new and old tv shows this week and last. More to come this week the rest of the CW shows come back on the air. And then the NBC shows in a few weeks. Bad thing about working all these nights is me missing out on these wonderful shows and having to watch them online sigh…or in the case of some two shows on at once means I have to choose which to watch even if its not the one I’d want to watch the most… well till next weekend! See ya!
1. Starting to wonder why I even bother to put workouts on these things. This week I took ONE walk yes just ONE walk. That is it. Not even a real workout.
