The Weekend 5 (Sunday, January 27th 2019)

Welcome to this on time this week yeah! Last one of these for January. Kinda hard to believe the first month of the new year is nearly gone and guess what I have made zero New Years resolutions. Maybe I won't make any after all!! I am unsure but hey. I am always up for changing things that God wants me to change even if it takes time to do so. How are yours going if you made any? How was your week?

1. Worked a lot per norm at my job. My usual 5 days. I am getting more bold at my job I can now talk to people when they are stealing or accidentally not paying for stuff more calm. I still get quiet sometimes when I ask for receipts. But truly I am doing better every day. Totally God btw not me. Bringing me out of my little shell or what nots. I do enjoy my job. Talking to people. And trying to ignore the rude ones that reck it either by stealing or by being rude for no reason truly. Yeah for work!

2. A year ago my job at Babies R Us was announced to close. What a blow it was. I went into my meeting on January 24th and was like the only one to NOT know what was going to happen. Little did we know then that the company was closing on itself and it would all be gone by June! Crazy! I do miss it I would be lying if I didnt say I do miss my job there. My family. My little things. Love you all BRU forever!!

3. Tuesday my sister dropped me off and I went downtown to get my medicine at the clinic. I also went shopping a bit before going back ending at the library to pick up my holds. I enjoyed some frozen yogurt. And other things. Nice to get out and do stuff for a change that isn't just work.

4. School begins next week!! I am trying to work on my show in my free time and debate what online class I am keeping. I am down to 2 both don't require a book. An Art 100 class and a dance survey class. So we shall see but will decide really soon.

5. Gym did it on Monday. I know right? I mean I felt like death on a stick from my usual 4 in a row. We almost did it again on Thursday then decided to not. So yeah. But love the GYM hope to go back again really soon!!

Well that is all for now. Hope you all have a good week and of your month. See you all in February. God bless you!!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, January 20th 2019)

So sorry first of all for this late update! I normally don't do these so late but I was so tired and busy and well yeah. So yeah how was your week? Mine was okay but not bad

1. Work was busy this week of course it was. Same old same old. But super busy was the weather that made it harder to work and well just more crazy. But yeah I like my job. And I am glad I have it. But I still miss my old job I still miss BRU. I wonder if this is my last retail job? I mean the fact I am not at a register and at a door. I feel at times like this is a sign this is the last one. So save up my money work out my radio stuff keep going and hopefully this is last one this is my last retail job. Lets hope right!

2. We had a bad amount of rain. It began on Monday and went till Friday morning. The worst days was for sure Monday and Thursday. Minor stuff on Wednesday and minor on Tuesday but still it rained. Not had that much rain in a long time. For us in Cali that was nuts no joke. Glad it gone. And hope if it rains again it won't be THAT much all at once.

3. Baked more stuff this week just some muffins. I am still not fully past the taste of almond flour. You can tell. I miss regular flower. I won't lie when I say I still miss my regular food my fun food my sugar food. I miss not counting carbs and sugars while depriving myself of so much. I know I am more healthy I know I am doing better but I miss it all still. It is how it is.

4. Tuesday we decided to take a chance on the zoo. Even with the rain it claimed it would not come back but it changed of course. So we spent 2hrs at the zoo with our new passes from the parents from Christmas. We had fun but yes it did rain off and on. It was an odd day. But not a bad first time either. So yeah began our zoo time once again! We did also upgrade to the passes like before with free parking at safari park and extra tickets to give out and discounts of 10%.

5. Went to the eye doctor on Thursday. Boy was that (not) fun. I got my eyes dilated. But I did receive good news. My eye sight is pretty good in fact I might not need glasses till I am 43 will I break the family curse. And better is my a1c it was 6.6 in September. But now it is 5.4. I still have diabetes but it means I am doing good my medicine is working and I am okay for now. I am still learning what this means but yeah good news.

Well that is all for now. This week not so eventful not a lot of plans. But yeah. Heading towards February almost there here we come. See you next week. Hopefully on time and not this late ever again!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, January 13th 2019)

Welcome again. Not much going on this week. At least not for me. How about you?

1. Got a bunch of rain yesterday and more this week I guess. I am not a fan of rain. So that is how it goes. To say the least of it. I wish it would behave. Not fun was trying to clean it up at work while trying to help the guests. I was at one point doing 3 different things. Ugh

2. Work this week the usual 40 hours. Busy busy. Some days more than others. Now they are getting me twice a week turn arounds. One was hard so two is almost insane. But I work what I am told to work.

3. Recall it has been 9 years since my beautiful Princess Angel died as of the 7th. I miss her still. I think I will always in some ways miss y little first kitty cat.

4. My poor feet are falling apart. Due to my issues with my diabetes. I try to just not complain but sometime being on my feet so much does suck and does hurt me so very very badly. I want to get a doctor to talk to me about this and since they are not I will be contacting them soon as I get passed my eye test next week.

5. Cookies I have done some of them but not all. I am still working on cookies. I made so far two for Christmas. I want to make snicker doodles and maybe another one too. So there is that. All and all I miss the sugar and I miss so much. I kinda cracked lately been allowing small amounts of stuff I missed. I even got me some valentine ding dongs I will be splitting maybe twice so I can have a piece once a day. I am always sad when this is done but I cant have it all at once.

Well that is all I can think of. Hope you all had a good week. See you next one. Almost back to school too! Just two more weeks and back to the radio show and at least one online class which is my plan now. As always God Bless you all!!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, January 6th 2019)

Welcome New Year welcome New Month welcome well welcome a lot. How was the end of your 2018? Were you excited or sad to see it go? While I had some bad stuff mostly it was not bad and I am glad it is gone. So see ya 2018! Hello 2019!

1. 2019 is now here. And I must say the year I turn 40 is upon me. Yes I know I know it is not till the END of the year. But still it is here. I am now in the year I turn the next decade the over the hill the mid age whatever else you want to say about it. And you know what I feel? Peace. I mean sure I will be older. But I am no longer since 2017 I am okay with not being married or having kids. However I wish to have that same peace about my career. Since I am not there yet. But I am working on it. And since it is all a progress a process I must continue it and not give up. This year also marks 20 years since my worst year on record 1999. That year was full of me losing my job, a lawsuit, 9 months of knee therapy, knee operation, told my knee will not be well ever, dropping out of college, having no idea what to do next with my life, losing two good internet friends over stupid crap that made no sense then nor now, almost losing my sisters cat and mine was not far behind. 1999 not the best year. So yeah 20 years later crazy!

2. So I am still working on my New Years resolutions. Funny thing is I do not know where I put mine for 2018! Wow. How about you? Do you make New Years goals to keep or not each year? I think if I did some they would include gym time more, get more healthy, bake more, read more well read period I never do anymore anything, closer to career. More personal: be offended less easily & complain less. Those are things I am working on with Gods help. So yeah working on mine still. How about you?

3. Worked this week my usual 5 days. 40hrs. Sadly in 2 weeks I am only working 32hrs. This week nothing super great. Except I did manage to keep a cart with a lot of stuff in it from leaving. I am trying to just smile and be more happy and talk to people. Make conversations. I can do this. I don't mind it. Except when I got yelled at this week by a lady that wanted everyone to know what we are doing is "illegal" btw it is not. I had a guy yesterday joke that if I keep doing this job it will be all I do. And I said with a smile "Well it IS my job this is all I do!" cause I do.

4. Rain Rain go away. Yes raining yesterday and today too. I don't mind rain when it means I am home and not out in it. Well that simply not the case. I was in it at work both days. And so on. Go away rain be gone SHOO! No thank you!

5. Thursday was the day I did not want to go to the doctor. And I for sure did not want to take Rainbow. Well my dog is older and losing weight for some reason we unsure why. Xray showed nothing. Yes she still has heart issues. I love my baby girl as long as I have her and forever after that. I still pray for at least 2 more years well at least till she hits 18 or older! As for me. I am keeping my diabetes under control. I have lost 17 pounds. The blood test was nothing more than testing out quickly not taking a lot of blood. My meds now doubled. But other than that nothing else going on. See you in 3 months.

Well that is all for now. Hope you all have a good week. Stay dry. And see you soon on the other soon. God bless you! Welcome 2019! Yes!
