What a great day!

It's just Shellie and I at work today and it should be an easy day! Then after work I'm heading up to Northgate Mall to pick up some stuff (aka lotion from b & bw) and then off to Safeway and then finally to David's where we will sit and watch Heroes and other TV shows all night and then maybe around midnight work on finishing the bathroom;)..haha. I'm just so happy today and I wanted everyone to know!

Accomplishment

My accomplishment for the day!!

Lazy butt

Okay, so basically I can't wake my sorry butt up in the morning to catch the bus before 7 so I've been driving to work and spending 5 bucks a day on parking. What is my deal?! Also, I haven't been to the gym since I got back from Maui so that doesn't help me at all! Everyday I tell myself, 'okay...in the morning I will wake up at 6:05 and catch the bus at 6:53.' So what happens? I wake up at 6:05, say heck no, and bump my alarm up to 7:05. Not cool! So in conclusion, I will wake up at 6:05 tomorrow and catch the bus!.....hahahahahaha

What a morning...

Alright, so I finally made it to work. After losing my ID card and then foolishly going back home to look for it while I'm already half way to work (I didn't find it at home). I then tunred around and headed back to work. The commute back to work took an hour...I live 10 freakin' minutes away! I preceded on getting a new ID and then headed down to my basement dwelling when in the end I finally realized I was soaking wet. That was the icing on the cake. However, after all of this I managed to laugh (while crying on the inside...j/k)). Oh yeah, and on top of this I feel like my stomach is upside down and draining it's sugary contents into my gut. Every morning at 4 am I have a can of coke zero on the drive back from David's so I can stay awake. I drank like half the can and I thought I was going to die on the way home (die=poo). Despite all of this, I am in a good mood and can't wait to go home! (and then to David's which is at least an hour to an hour and a half drive) :) (but it's so worth it ;))

Only the beginning...

After much thought and consideration I have decided to make my thoughts public. David gets to listen to me everyday so now everyone else can share in the excitement! So let's get started.........

Lately I've been thinking about "home home" a lot. "Home home" refers to Minnesota. I now consider Washington my "home". I'm excited to see my parents, my sister, and a few friends for Thanksgiving, but that's about it. I have no desire to see too many other people. I moved out to Seattle because there was a lot of opportunity here for a career in the science field and I wanted to see what the big city was like. However, there is a little part of me that wanted to start over. You can call that running away or what have you, but I believe moving here was the best decision I have ever made. I tried to resolve as many issues at home as I could before moving. I think I did that to the best of my ability and I have no regrets about anything. When I moved here I did not know anyone or anything, nor did I have a job. Surprisingly though, I managed to have a positive attitude and things have worked out in my favour. I have a wonderful boyfriend who I am absolutely in love with (what more could I ask for)? I think I can actually say that I am truly happy. Are there things about my life that I want to change? Of course. I also have my bad days just like everyone else. Then there are times when I'm happy and smiling, but true happiness has been rare. I believe you cannot know what true happiness is until you have experienced the complete opposite...

....now if I could just get my lazy ass to the gym I bet I would be even happier!

Now that I have set a happy foundation for myself, I can finally get to work on my real thoughts and ideas;)
