Several steps complete today I:


  • Read this weeks chapters for school

  • Did today's homework assignment (a bio about me)

  • Bought a mirror online/spend my Christmas walmart gift card

  • Bought some bath products/spend a bath and body gift card



I have a lot more I need to do this week (and month), but I at least started getting some things crossed off the list. Although the...

lol. I like your babble smile btw what happened to your Eagles? shockedeeek
ribbonsundone:
Hey lady - you deserve support for your endeavors. You are trying to make your life your own. That is AWESOME. YOu will make this happen because you are so focused.

So, the photography for the site thing is different from the class photography? Or are they one in the same? Or perhaps COULD they be one in the same? That might be a cool project.

Hilarious about the gift card. Whatever. That is the universe seeking balance. smile

Some days it seems like I'm the only one interested in moving forward. I know it's not true... but for the love of god, family... WORK WITH ME!

I really wish all the debts were paid off already. It would be so much better if we were looking into the loans now instead of getting stuff paid off. I know when shopping for mortgages, it...

Ah, I gotcha. That is a great way to go to get those dreams off the ground.

You are the most driven in this situation, it seems. It can be frustrating when those around you don't keep up the pace!! But, you KNOW it will pay off in the end. You can do it!

Go team school. smile
ribbonsundone:
Definitely. I think that is part of FL that is actually still warm, although I am not completely sure. Cold with a palm tree is depressing. Warm with a palm tree is a party. Woo! But seriously, it seems like some folks need the concrete reality to precede the enthusiasm. Go for it!

I'm starting to look at some of the possibilities...
IF we make it to Key West, we're going to need to find ways to make enough money to continue living there. (Right now we're living for almost free with a friend.) Well be going down there, me being the only one to have a job (online camming and such). Steve will need to get a...

Since yesterday evening has been pleasant. Yesterday, I found out how much work there is for school and I freaked. I tried calling Alan (my quasi-ex), but he didn't answer the phone, and I can't call Steve (my bf) when he's at work... So I ended up asking my roommate if he could tell me it'd all be ok. Well, that request ended up being...

Last night I was up WAY too late chating at MyFreeCams. I wasn't doing the whole "sexy" thing, didn't dress up... I was just hanging out after everyone else went to bed. I was so stressed from my day, (arguing with kids till midnight... that's right... the little one didn't go to sleep till after midnight, and wouldn't let her sister sleep either). So, went...

I was able to get in a little bit of work today... between last night and today I've made about $45. LOL! I'm hoping tonight I'll be able to make a little more. It'd be nice to round out my earnings and make another $55 tonight... (give me an average of $50 a day). I'm thinking I might need to start going downstairs to work...

Damn, I just had this big long blog and lost it by accidentally bumping a button. Let me try this again...

I'm really working on making this a good day today. I woke up to a couple emails that were positive. The main one being that, as long as I can take the pictures with more/natural light and as an ISO400, I've been accepted! YAY!...

I'm digg'n the new profile pic.
ribbonsundone:
WHOA - foxy photo miss priss! Lovin' it. And thank you for the encouragement. Various forms of public speaking, a performance/performance art class, various interpersonal communications and two variations on an introductory survey. Even though I am in the syllabi tank I am SO PUMPED about actually doing the classes. Whee!!

I haven't gotten my excercise together yet either. Slow and steady!

My head is still spinning with the idea of Key West. I think that I'm thinking about it even more with how cold it is out and knowing it's 59 degrees down there! I remember when I was there before, this kind of weather seemed like it was freezing! LOL! We had to wear long sleeves and socks... THAT cold! LOL! Now thinking about it.....

My family is trying to drive me mad.

First is was "no house-yes house", then "yes Cali-no Cali"... Then yesterday, I checked the house that I liked in NJ, and it looks like it sold. So, just kind of looking... I checked houses in the FL Keys. I found a could around the price range we're talking about.... Well, the whole family said they'd be...

Balance - oh, that is always the challenge. I like to say I take moderation way too far or not nearly far enough... haha.

Good grief on the house front. Um, I say you move and let them follow you if they take the initiative to do so. Heehee. I know that is unrealistic, but seriously, you are doing an awesome job pushing on. You can do it!

Happy New Years, my loves.
I'm trying to get straight in my head that this year, (this decade!), I will grow to become who I want to be. I've spent the last 30 years (ok 32 but who's counting), figuring out WHO I want to be. Now it's the time to BE it!

I want to learn to find balanced, without giving up passion. I...

I'm starting to feel a little better. I've been thinking about what it is that I'm hoping to get done in the next year. I have such a long list.

ribbonsundone:
I feel that. You can do it!

a list is the first start! smile

here's to a great new year, full of crossed off lists. smile

Yesterday went ok.
Had a little issue; my photography light from my mom didn't come with the light. LOL!

Other then that things went well.


Today, everyone has other things to do. Alan's spending time with his roommate that just got back from Paris, Steve's working... Today it's just me and the girls... and we're only kind of getting along. The dog's the only one...

Spending too much is just a fact of Christmas, you can't get around it.

Happy post-Christmassmile

You can do it! Savings are challening, but as much as you have accomplished lately you will be able to do it.
