Sleep would be good.

I had a busy week involving less sleeping than I would have liked. Mostly, my fault - I really need to schedule appointments better - but it was annoying. As I mentioned last week, I had an interview on Wednesday. The interview was scheduled for 4:30 but I had to be there 20 minutes early. They said that the process would be about 30 minutes but in reality it took an hour and a half because they were interviewing about 50 people, so it was a lot of waiting for your turn.
But anyway, I originally had an appointment with a specialist on Wednesday at 1, but if I had kept that appointment, I really would not have had any sleep. So I called to change the appointment on Monday, and the doctor had an opening on Tuesday at 3:45. So, I had to wake up early on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Then, my doctor wanted an extra test done so I had to schedule that appointment. I, in my brilliance, scheduled that appointment for 4 on Thursday. So that's three days in a row I didn't sleep as much as I should have. At least,I went back to bed after my Thursday appointment. Then on Friday, I had a meeting at the bank at 9:30am. So I didn't get to sleep till after 12 that day. But I now feel all grown up with Mutual Funds and all. So that was my busy week. This week shouldn't be quite as hectic.

So, how did I do?

  1. Updating the blog. Here I am again. 11 for 11.
  2. Find a new job. I think the interview on Wednesday went okay, but I do think that they are looking for someone who speaks more French than I do. I am going to wait a little bit, just to see if this job pans out and then I am going to look for French classes in the community so I can improve my French and increase my chances of getting a job here in Ottawa. I should find out about the job soon since it starts in April.
  3. Room cleaning. Yeah, not much happened on that front this week. My floor is not full of stuff though so that is good. I do want to re-clean my chair and organize my papers (finally) this week.
  4. Lose weight. Amazingly enough, I did not gain any weight this week. I say that is amazing because last night we went out for supper to 'The Works', which is a specialty burger place here in Ottawa. The food is sooo good, but it is very filling. I also had 1/3 of a lemon pie today. So there is that too.
  5. Gym twice per week. Well, I made it once. The rest of the week I was pretty tired. Next week will be more about sleep so I should be awake enough to go to the gym. Hopefully, I'll make it three times but at least two.
  6. Old books and clothes. Not much happened there this week. 
  7. Swear less. I continue to use the phrase 'crap on a cracker'. I am surprised my language hasn't gotten worse considering how horrible I am at the Wii game I bought last week. 
  8. Dance practice. Didn't do any practice this week. I am going to try to go to a dance class this week, and practice at home as well.
So, I really didn't get a lot done this week. Hopefully, I'll get more done next week. Sleep will help.
