Argh, I cannot believe that tomorrow morning I have to get up, get organised with my various clothing and shoe combos, and go to work. It’s been a fantastic two weeks off, and has even felt like longer! But I know by the end of tomorrow it will be like I never had a holiday. It always amazes me how fast that feeling of rest and relaxation goes away. However I’m still committed to a lack of commitment to any major projects outside of work, such as a part time Honours degree! I have however filled out the form for a Pilates class at a not-so-local (as in have to drive there in peak hour traffic) high school. And another school have Microsoft Access one-day courses which I will sign up and get work to pay for, because I have been using Access at work a bit but kinda skipped those classes when I was getting my business diploma! And I really want to do a craft type course, like a patchwork class, but they are super expensive, then the fabrics are another huge cost again, plus if I do one that require machine sewing, then I’d have to buy a sewing machine! All up that would be one seriously expensive quilt, so we’ll see about that one…. I have a little issue with money at the moment, as in I’m spending my WHOLE paycheck every fortnight and barely scraping through the last couple of days. I got some back pay and a study bonus towards the end of last year and spent the lot setting up my new house, but I haven’t quite got off the spending buzz yet, so I need to slow things down and make more payments on the credit card than purchases. My roommate and I just did the groceries for the week (after spending money all day in town on things we don’t need!). We had all the veges we needed, but NO meat at all. We planned out 7 meals and what we needed for them, and a couple of other miscellaneous things we needed (ice cream is a necessity, duh!), and ended up only spending half of what we thought we might need! So that eases things off for now. Would be great if we could do that every week, but we’re both quite creative in the kitchen and would rather spend a bit extra on some good quality ingredients and have delicious meals. Hope all is well out there with everyone else ~N
