Sillyness

Can someone please answer me and tell me who designed the side walks of Seattle? I mean come one this one of the cities in the United States that rains all the time, and yet whoever designed the side walks decided to put smooth not textured cement in certain areas of the city. They also decided it would be a good idea to put smooth bricks in the front of Seattle Central. I think this is just silliness because I slide everywhere when it rains. I can't imagine how many people have or could get injured from falling in these smooth areas of the city. I drives me crazy, because I am a fast walker and I can not walk fast in these areas because I'm scared I will slip and fall. I would just really like to know who came up with this brilliant idea and give them a piece of my mind.

Schedules

With this last week off of school and work, and with the cold weather I feel like my schedule it all messed up. I haven't been to the gym in over a week and my muscles feel like they are screaming at me. Started today I am officially back on my schedule, which means when I'm done at work going to the gym, doing homework, and crocheting. Which reminds me I should be done with my third blanket in seven months. I am so proud of myself. This lat one is going to be the best one though. 

Amazing...

I have found it truly amazing how easy it is to spend money. I have been doing nothing really but saving money and crocheting these last 8 months, but yet for some reason I am still always stressing about where my money is going. Most or where my money is going would be food. I have this problem where I shop everyday for whatever I am in the mood for. This has become a real problem because I am spending much more then I should be. I really need to get more organized and start shopping with a list for the week and only go to the store once a week. This is a easy thing to say I am going to do, but I have tried this before and I always lose my list or get side tracked from the list and buy junk food or candles. What am I to do, I guess I just need to be a little harder on myself and try to stay focused on my task. Shopping thrifty and prepared.

Crazy Target Commercials.

I don't know if anyone else has seen those target commercials with the crazy women with the blond hair? They seem to be everywhere, on t.v. and even when I turn on my computer she pops up on the side on my screen. They are pretty annoying because they are everywhere, but I'm not going to lie, they are really funny. She is such a nut. So with no school on Friday morning, is anyone planning on getting up early and shopping and getting all the great sales?

Snow day!!

It was nice not having school today, even though I still got up early and went down to the school to check and see if it was open..... well at least I live close. Even better today I didn't have to work.... what a great day. I spent my day crocheting, doing homework, and watching movies. I also made some plans for me and my boyfriend for while we are in Michigan. 23 days to go, and I will see the one person that makes my smile simply by just being him. Well I hope everyone else had an enjoyable snow day.

Christmas

So I started making my Christmas gifts the other day to take back home with me to Michigan. I decided I am going to take pictures all over the city of things I pass everyday, and landmarks in Seattle and frame them. No one in my family has been to Seattle, so I figured I would show them what it is like. I know it is a little early to be thinking about Christmas, but I rather just get it out of the way.

46 day!!

Today is November 1st and this makes me really excited. I woke this morning with a smile on my face because it means I only have 46 more days until my Boyfriend comes home. These last 7 months have actually gone by pretty fast, now I just have to make these next 46 days fly by. This last month is going to be the hardest month, I won't be able to communicate with him because he is on a mission. It is pretty frustrating because I have so many things that I want to share with him. So I still write him letters, hopefully they make it to him on time. There is so much that has changed in my life in these last 7 months, all for the better, the only thing missing is him. I told myself before he left that these 8 months that he is gone I have to focus on my self, do things that I want to get done or get started like school. Focusing on myself helped me not to dwell that he was gone, but now that his tour that his is coming to a end and we can't talk, it is all I can think about. I really do miss him, I can't fool myself anymore, but it's okay only 46 more days now.
