Sunday, January 1, 2017 It's a rather chill day today getting some stuff done and relaxing. I'm so happy for the long weekend! |
|
Thank you hummy! The same to you! [mrgreen] |
Monday, January 2, 2017 Today is my last day before going back to work. I'm really glad for the 3 day weekend. I tried to put up my new curtains yesterday but was disappointed that after all my sewing efforts to hem the bottoms, now they are too wide. [gonk] So now I'll either have to sew them by hand to see if I can't get my coworker to either do it for me or bring me her sewing machine. [cry] |
Tuesday, January 3, 2017 I had a seriously difficult time getting out of bed today. I had some nightmares last night and woke up feeling exhausted. It probably didn't help that I didn't really want to go back to work. The day went relatively well though and this evening I managed to update my resume and search for some jobs. I didn't really find anything French related that I seemed suited to though so tomorrow I will look at some other things. I played a bit of SWTOR afterwards as a reward. [XP] |
Wednesday, January 4, 2017 Crap, I’m already forgetting to update this. That’s why I didn’t do one of these last year, I have such a hard time remembering to keep up with it! Anyway, on Wednesday I had a little Christmas extension! I received a package from a friend and we skyped while opening each other’s presents which was fun. ^_^ I got lots of crafting stuff including this cool cutting/embossing machine and a hand crocheted pineapple bag! For my friend I got a hand made mug with a moustache guard! XD Thursday, January 5, 2017 I was oddly not very hungry today. It was kind of weird since I have really been eating a lot lately. On the plus though my cat finally got her appetite back! I was starting to worry since she hadn’t been eating much… |
Friday, January 6, 2017 Friday was a bit of a mess. I'm having issues with my eyes and wanted to see an eye doctor. I had called the eye doctor I went to previously a few weeks ago before I started having trouble and they had informed me that because the doctor I had seen last time was a specialist that I couldn't see her again without a referral but that there was another doctor in the office that I could see without a referral. I called them back to ask what the name of this other doctor was only to get put on hold then finally have my call taken back by another receptionist who told me that I could see any doctor and didn't need a referral which I was pretty sure was incorrect as the person I spoke to the last time I called was the insurance/billing person who I am sure knows more about that stuff than the bitchy receptionist (she was nasty with me the last time I went in there...). Saturday, January 7, 2017 Today we had like a blizzard. I took down my Christmas decorations except the garland around my wall because I can't reach it and the step ladder at the hardware store is really expensive. I'll have to figure out what to do with that later. |
Sunday, January 8, 2017 Sunday was a bit up and down for me. I had some fun making cards and playing a little Pokemon Sun but I also wasn't feeling so well most of the day though I'm not really sure why. At least I got to relax a bit. |
Monday, January 9, 2017 Today was alright. My coworker got back from her trip to France. I'm definitely happy to have her back. And she brought my the shirt I ordered! I can't wait to wear it! It's a really pretty Japanese pattern. The day went by pretty quickly, I had quite a bit of work to do so that kept me busy. We had a short break later in the afternoon for the "King Cake" party which is something that's celebrated in France but not here. They have a special cake with a little ceramic piece hidden inside and whoever gets it is supposed to be king for the day. This evening I've been searching for jobs. I applied to one job that seems kind of eh before finding another one that seems like a good fit. I'm applying to it this evening and I'll keep my fingers crossed. It's pretty late so I guess I should be heading to bed but I really wanted to get that application out. |
Tuesday, January 10, 2017 Today was kind of weird. I woke up with my arm feeling numb/tingly from my shoulder down. It was very frustrating dealing with that all day. It was a pretty busy day, I had a lot to do at work, and then I ran around all evening trying to get a huge load of laundry done. I haven't done laundry since Christmas! @_@ Anyway, it's quite a relief to have that done now even though I stayed up suuuuper late to do so. |
Wednesday, January 11, 2017 I was super glad to wake up and have feeling in my arm again. That was definitely a relief. Work was pretty crazy. I had so much to do and I was running around trying to work on a million different things at once and it was the same story getting home from work too. On a better note though I got a baguette and some ham and cheese and made a really yummy melted ham and cheese baguette sandwich for dinner. Afterwards I skyped and played SWTOR with a friend who taught me how to do this crafting stuff to get some cool new decorations for my stronghold. I also decided to buy one of their cartel packs that has a bunch of luxury decorations! I can’t wait to use them! |
Thursday, January 12, 2017 Today was one of those days where everything just seemed to go wrong. On the plus side the weather was a bit warmer than it has been recently. Friday, January 13, 2017 Today was Friday the 13th. I was pretty tempted to just stay in bed. I was super tired from staying up late all week and was hoping that my black cat would be a good excuse to stay in bed on this unlucky day but alas I had to go to work. And what a day it was indeed. Definitely a day I would have preferred to stay in bed for but I survived and now that work is over I can enjoy the weekend. |
Saturday, January 14, 2017 Today was a good day. I slept in and got some stuff done then went out in the snow for some groceries. I got a big bag of kale and a bottle of Olive Garden Italian dressing and it was so yummy! Later I played some SWTOR and finally got to put up some of my luxury decorations. My stronghold is starting to look pretty awesome! The only eh part of the day was finding a big cockroach in the bathroom. >.< |
Sunday, January 15, 2017 Today I went up to Queens to my coworker’s house to use her sewing machine. After I moved into my apartment I had a really hard time finding a pair of curtains that worked in the space. Finally I ended up getting a set that was too long so I took them home with me for Christmas and hemmed them only to realize after I got back that they were too wide too. [gonk] |
Monday, January 16, 2017 Today was the Monday morning blues. I woke up super tired and cold to the bone. I just couldn't warm up today... Work was pretty busy this morning and then I had a phone interview in the afternoon which I don't think went very well. After I got back from my lunch break shit hit the fan. The President unapproved the mailing that we were starting to send out and we ended up having to redo the letters and throw a bunch out. Then she approved and unapproved it again so I had to redo the letters yet again. A bunch more work got added to my already way overflowing workload and I really have no idea how I'm going to get everything done. It's just craziness. I ended up staying like 40 minutes late trying to get stuff done. I did get to relax a little bit on the train home though and played some Happy Home Designer on my 3DS for the first time in forever. I've got a few things to take care of this evening but hopefully I'll get a couple minutes to relax. I really should be looking at other job stuff but after the crazy day I had I really need to unwind a bit. @_@ |
Tuesday, January 17, 2017 Last night I discovered a fun show on Netlix called "The New Girl". The main character is super adorkable but I love it. I ended up staying up later than I should watching a second episode because it was just too cute/funny. I had a really hard time sleeping last night though. I woke up at like 4:30am and laid away for about an hour. Finally I fell back asleep and then the cat went absolutely bonkers running around like crazy and tearing across the bed. Definitely wasn't happy about that and woke up feeling awful. Wednesday, January 18, 2017 Yet another super crazy day at work today. I swear this place just gets exponentially worse with time. I seriously can't wait till Friday. Anyway, hopefully I'll actually leave on time tonight and have some fun playing SWTOR with a friend later and get to bed on timeish. I've been staying up way too late lately. >.< |
Thursday, January 19, 2017 Today was the craziest day of the week by far. I was in a meeting from 12:30pm to 5:30pm straight. @_@ Talk about sensory overload… At least the day itself wasn’t too terrible. After work I went to Target to do some shopping which was fun. It wasn’t too busy so that was definitely nice and I got to try out their new self checkout system. Once I got home I made some bagel bites for dinner and got on do to a bit of crafting in SWTOR before bed. I really need to work on getting to bed earlier though, I’ve gotten into a bad habit of going to bed way too late the past few weeks. >.< Friday, January 20, 2017 Today I woke up feeling like I had a hangover even though I didn’t drink anything last night. @_@ I called the vet first thing in the morning to make an appointment for Yuna. She’s had a few odd symptoms lately but lately she hasn’t been eating much so I think it’s time to take her. |
Saturday, January 21, 2017 So I took my cat to the vet today. I rather felt like a jerk but she wasn't eating properly and I was worried. They think it's feline HIV? So I have to give her some powder in her food now to treat that. Hopefully it'll make her better. I was worried that she had lost weight because she wasn't eating but it turns out that with the few kibbles I've been giving her with her wet food she's actually gained weight. [oops] After that I came back home and got some Chinese food for lunch because it was really late and I didn't feel like cooking anything. I was planning on going out to the store after that but by the time I was ready it was dark out so I decided not to. I worked on sewing my curtains instead. I'm so happy to finally finish them! They look great! I have to fix the one window though because it's letting in too much light at night but hopefully it should be an easy enough fix. I watched more Yuri On Ice while I sewed. I'm so in love with that show. Ice skating hotties...bromance references...beautiful animation... *drool* After that I played a bit of SWTOR and got to bed later than I should have. [XD] |
I wish you the bestest of luck on getting a new job this year <3 I'll chat more tommorrow and actually read more when i get the chance. ^-^ I love the memory jars they're so nice to have! Glad you get to do one this year.

Thanks for stopping by Shadami! I'll definitely take all the luck I can get! [sup] Sunday, January 22, 2017 I didn't get a whole lot done yesterday after going to the vet so I had a lot of stuff to catch up on today. I managed to get a lot done but procrastinated what I really should have been doing--job hunting. [sweat] At the end of the evening I got caught up watching more Yuri On Ice and ended up watching the show to the end. So many feels! I love that anime... I ended up getting to bed late again though. I really really need to get back into a better sleep pattern. [cry] |
Monday, January 23, 2017 Monday woes… I never sleep well on Sunday nights. I guess I’m subconsciously stressed about going back to work on Monday. It was a crappy weather day. Cold and rainy all day long. I had train delays in the morning and took a longer lunch to go to Petco to get something for Yuna so I ended up having to stay late. I tried to get some stuff done after I got home but it was just so cold and I wasn’t really in the mood so again I didn’t get to my job search stuff and again I got to bed late. *sigh* I really need to get better about getting to bed on time. My annual Valentine’s Day cold is coming up soon and I don’t need to up my chances of getting sick, LOL! Tuesday, January 24, 2017 Today is another crappy weather day. More rain and cold and wind. I woke up with my right arm numb again. I’m really not sure what to make of it, whether it’s stress or carpel tunnel or a pinched nerve but this is the 2nd time it’s happened recently. It’s really quite unpleasant and the sensation lasts all day. V_V |
Wednesday, January 25, 2017 I've been pretty frustrated at work the past few days. We'll be launching our new website and new CRM very soon and everyone's freaking out and there are people chit chatting/venting/bitching in front of my desk all day long. I seriously can't hear myself think. >.< Thursday, January 26, 2017 Another annoying day with people talking in front of my desk all day. I have been trying to work on event organization stuff the past two days but it's really hard to focus with all the noise. Halfway through the day I decided that I would go ice skating tonight. It was a very impromptu thing as I was wearing a dress and didn't have a hat/scarf/gloves. It was really windy but skating actually warmed me up. Even though I arrived right after the ice cut it was really rough, probably because there were so many people. I stayed for about an hour, it was really fun! My step ladder was also delivered today so I can finally take down the rest of my Christmas decorations, lol! Friday, January 27, 2017 Today has been going okay so far. I woke up feeling a bit better than I have recently, probably because I actually managed to get to bed a bit earlier than I have been. The day has been going okay so far. I had a training on the new website that we'll be launching next week and called my mom for a few minutes on my lunch break. I've still got about four hours to go but I have some fun to look forward to tonight playing SWTOR with a friend. I can't wait! |
Saturday, January 28, 2017 Today was a pretty good day. I got a bit distracted playing video games so I didn't get everything done that I was hoping to but I did finally manage to get the last of my Christmas decorations put away, score! I got pretty sleepy in the evening so I took a short nap and ended up waking up grumpy. [oops] I played a bit of Pokemon Sun and defeated the Elite Four then played some SWTOR with a friend after that and then went to bed. Sunday, January 29, 2017 I got super distracted with SWTOR today. I totally meant to get up and get some stuff done but ended up finishing a few things up on Pokemon and then playing SWTOR pretty much all day. My bad! I had a bunch of things I wanted to get done too. That game is way to distracting! Now if only my PC wouldn't act up all the time... >.< Time to get some stuff done! |
