So, yeah. Apparently I have given up on titles. Lately, they have all just been lamenting the fact that the blog is late again and were getting a bit redundant. So how did I do this week?

1. Updating this blog. 30 out of 30. Not bad.
2. Get a new job. I applied for one job this week. In other news, I now have more of a definitive end date for my temporary government job. It may end sooner than that though, depending on how much work there is left to do.
3. Room cleaning. It definitely needs work. I also need to get all of my stuff that is scattered throughout the house and bring it to my room.
4. Lose weight. I think I am down a couple pounds at least.
5. Going to the gym. I went twice last week. I also did a lot of walking.
6. Old books and clothes. Not much to report there.
7. Swear less. About the same amount as normal I think this week.
8. Dance practice. I went to practice on Tuesday but I don't think I did much else this week.

So that was my week. Nothing super interesting happened. Although, based on all of the reports from Comic Con this week, I have decided that I would really like to go sometime. It seems like a really cool experience.

It's getting harder and harder to motivate myself to update this blog. I need to get back to a regular schedule for updating. At least I remembered though. Lets see how I did this week.

1. Updating the blog. 29 out of 29. I am doing well despite the whole forgetting until it's a bit late thing.
2. Get a new job. Well, I applied for a job but not much else happened on that front this week.
3. Room cleaning, Well, I put away the suitcase from camping, as well as the therma rest. I also gathered much  of my belly dance stuff and it is in the vicinity of being away. I now need to get rid of the assorted papers that are on the floor.
4. Lose weight. I am still around where I was last week.
5. Going to the gym. I went twice last week again, but missed Zumba. Again...
6. Old books and clothes. Nothing really to report here.
7. Swear less. I don't think I did too badly this week, but it wasn't exactly good.
8. Dance practice. I went to class on Tuesday and did some random practicing throughout the week.

In other news, I went to see the new Harry Potter movie on Friday. I really enjoyed it. I got to the theatre at 12:59pm, and decided to go to the 1pm show. I was able to go to the bathroom and get popcorn before the previews were even over.  I actually wouldn't mind seeing it again.

This is getting ridiculous

Ok, I know, I know. I am late again. Really late this time. But really, who's actually paying attention? I am just happy that I remembered to do it all. So how'd I do this week? Let's see:

1. Updating the blog. 28 for 28. Better late than never I guess.
2. Get a new job. Not much news on that front. I am thinking of calling different placement agencies to see what I need to do to get on their list. 
3. Room cleaning. I am half unpacked from my camping trip. That's something I guess. Need to work on it more.
4. Lose weight. I haven't really lost anything since last week, but I haven't gained anything, so yay!
5. Going to the gym. I went to the gym twice this week again. I was out of town on Saturday, so I didn't go to Zumba yet again.
6. Old books and clothes. Not so much.
7.  Swear less. I was camping this weekend with my sister, her friends, and her friends' kids so I really had to watch my language. 
8. Dance practice. I went to dance class on Tuesday but didn't really do much else in terms of dance practice this week.

So, as I mentioned before I went camping. I had a good time but I couldn't really sleep that well on Friday night. I ended up sleeping most of Saturday so I missed a lot of stuff. Other than that and the massive headache I had on Sunday, I had a good time. I was exhausted most of the time though.

Ok, now it's really late...

I don't really have a lot to say today so I am just going to go right to it.

1. Updating the blog. 27 for 27.
2. Get a new job. I applied for a job this week. Nothing much. I didn't work as much as I should have, I guess.
3. Room cleaning. Yeah, not much progress there.
4. Lose weight. I am still about 5 pounds down from where I was at the beginning of the year.
5. Going to the gym. I went to the gym twice last week. No Zumba though, yet again.
6. Old books and clothes. Not much new on that front this week.
7. Swear less. I haven't been swearing that much this week, that I can think of anyway.
8. Dance practice. I skipped dance class this week because Colette had the car and there was a big storm right when I was about to go to catch the bus. I ended up wishing I had gone because the power went out and I was super bored.

When the power went out last Tuesday, I decided to read one of the books that was on my Kobo and had been sitting there for a while. I ended up being so caught up in in that I was very hopeful that my Kobo wasn't about to die since I had no way of charging it with the power being out and all. The book I read was the 'The Hunger Games' which I highly recommend. I ended up finishing the trilogy by Saturday. 
I also went downtown on Friday to see some Canada Day festivities. I didn't ending up seeing Will and Kate, just part of their motorcade. It was a madhouse downtown. I ended up only being downtown for about an hour.
Anyway, I hope you all had a good week.

Almost forgot...

So apparently, Mondays are my updating days now. I am just happy I remembered I did eventually remember to do it. So, how'd I do? Let's see:

1. Updating. Yay! I am half way there! 26 down, 26 to go!
2. Get a new job. I am getting about 20 hours a week at the new job. I am getting paid every week from there but it really doesn't seem like that much. I worked two shifts last week and three the week before. I put myself on call to work at the old job Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday nights. With the rain we got last week, I have been finding it hard to get motivated to do the new job. But it has to be done, I guess.
3. Room cleaning. Bellydance stuff is still out. I did get rid of the plastic bags, though I now have to put away the stuff that was in them. I also have to clean around my bed and move stuff away from the wall. I will then have to take off the baseboards and panels. There is water getting into my room, and I am not sure where it is coming from. The wall that it is by doesn't even have a window so I am puzzled.
4. Lose weight. I am five pounds down from where I was at the beginning of the year, so yay!. Here's hoping it continues in a downward direction.
5. Going to the gym. I went to the gym twice last week. I didn't make it to Zumba though. I will have to check out the gym class schedule to see if there are any other classes I might make it to.'
6. Old clothes and books. Colette took some of her things in to Salvation Army today so I added some of my old books to her pile. They were just the books I had ready, I will probably have to go through the books again in the near future.
7. Swear less. I think I am pretty much on par with where I was last week.
8. Dance practice. I am going to class on Tuesdays for the next month or so. At the gym last Wednesday, it was deserted so I practiced some moves by the mirror. I also practiced at home a few times as well.

Hope everyone had a good week!!

Lateness is becoming a theme

So, I am getting later and later with the updating thing. I just have to make a point to do it. Anyway, let's see how I did...

1. Updating the blog. Here I am - 25 for 25. Almost at the halfway mark.
2. Getting a new job. The new job is going okay. Still not getting too many hours. When I am not working on it though, I feel like I should be. I have been working more at my other job, which is good because on my last paycheque from it, I had $65 which doesn't really go to far. I am trying to work 3 4hr shifts a week there, which isn't a whole lot but it'll get me some money. Considering, I am still not entirely sure whether or not I have been paid from the new job yet. 
3. Room cleaning. I put away the DVDs and the pop cans. I didn't get to the bellydance stuff. So that's for this week, as well as getting rid of all the plastic bags on my floor and general tidying.
4. Lose weight. I do think that a few pounds have come off. I just need to watch what I am eating and eat real food rather than ice cream and Toffifee and popcorn twists.
5. Going to the gym. I went to the gym between 2 and 2:30am twice this week. No Zumba this week either (I went with a friend to get pedicures instead). I am planning to go this week. Seriously this time.
6. Old books and clothes. Moving on.....nothing to see here....
7. Swear less. I swore under my breath more than I should have this week, especially when I realized I had dropped my $20 bill and bus tickets, and had to go home to get my debit card and bus fare. I was not happy.
8. Dance practice. Well, the show went well. My timing was a bit off but overall I think it well. I didn't forget the dance or look to my left the entire dance, like I usually do. I also think I had some sort of facial expression that wasn't confusion, so yay!!

After dance practice last Monday, I realized that I sort of did my costume wrong (I hemmed the wrong end of the pant legs). So I undid it on Tuesday, and hemmed the right part and got both legs somewhat the same length. All while my sister was at work, so ! I did it all by myself!! I was impressed with myself. I also had to sew some ribbons to the legs in order to keep them up.

So anyway, that was my week. Have a good week everyone!!

Agh. Late again

I guess the new job is kinda messing with my updating schedule. Or I should remember to update before I go into my older job at 10pm. I really don't feel like updating when I get in at 2am. The new job is going okay though. I like that it's something I can mostly do at my own pace. Hopefully I can get more hours with it, than I am currently.

1. Updating this blog. It almost didn't happen this week but here I am. 24 for 24.
2. Getting a new job. As I mentioned before, the new job is going okay. I may have to look into something else too. I do have more time now that I am not working overnight five days a week and thus not sleeping during the day all the time. I am not used to being in the sun this much!!! So I picked up an application from Sephora - which is an odd choice considering I know nothing about makeup, but with performing I do need to learn. A friend of mine that works there suggested it. My sister also sent me a link about a different job that I should look into. 
3. Room cleaning. It's not clean exactly by any stretch of the imagination. But I can see the floor. My job for this week is putting the DVDs that have migrated away back into the shelf, getting rid of the pop cans, and actually putting my dance stuff back in my under bed bin.
4. Lose weight. I actually think I did lose some weight this week - which makes sense, I've been walking enough.
5. Going to the gym. No Zumba this week - work happened instead. I did go to the gym twice thought. It turns out that going to the gym between 11 and 12 at night is enjoyable. It's a little busy but not too bad. I can use whatever machines I want. I can use the locker that I like. AND I can use the mats. 
6. Old books and clothes. Not so much.
7. Swear less. I think I am getting better at the Mario Brothers game - I don't think I swore at it too much this week. 
8. Dance practice. I had dance practice on Monday, dance class on Tuesday and then I met one of the other girls for costuming stuff and to run through the dance a couple times on Saturday. I also practiced the dance a few times on my own. The show is on Tuesday so I should practice a bit more over the next couple days.

So costuming...One of the other girls I am dancing with took the costuming aspect into her own hands, which..THANK JEBUS. The costuming aspect of dance is the part that gives me panic attacks. I much prefer leaving it to other people to figure out. She did give me some pant legs  that I was supposed to fit to my leg and hem. Luckily, I found the trick to sewing at my house. What I do is I take so long and mess up so much that Colette decides that if she ever wants to play the Mario Brothers game again it would be better for her to do it for me. She is a lifesaver. Thanks, Colette.
So anyway, hopefully the costumes work out and the performance goes well.
Wish me luck!!
