I really don't know why, but I haven't been posting a Thousand Days. I've been writing them, so I'm not really sure why I haven't been blogging them. I wish I had a reason, even a lame one, but the truth is I don't even have a lame reason, so here you go.
Day two hundred
seventy-three
August 2, 2013: So tax free
weekend. Yeah. Busy. Really busy at work. Forget the holiday season, Easter,
and then tax free weekend is when we're crazy. The holiday season is longer,
and people are crankier the nearer we get to Christmas, but often it was down
right dead. Not today.
Day two hundred
seventy-four
August 3, 2013: I just want to
take this time to say I am truly grateful for the work, mostly because I do not
have to close tonight. Not only do we close an hour later, but there was
probably a butt load (and a big but, like mine, or probably my next oldest
sister, I'm not saying her name so she won't get upset at me) of straightening
to do. I left at 5, and it was a mess.
Day two hundred
seventy-five
August 4, 2013: Once again,
not closing. Had to leave Church early today though. Tired, and I still have
two days of work.
Day two hundred
seventy-six
August 5, 2013: Starting the
bad ol' diet up again. After three months of eating what ever I wanted when I
wanted, I am hoping I have not gained too much weight back on. And I am going
to keep calling it a diet. The only
negative connotation that word has is what we give it. Technically what I was
doing over the summer was a diet too, just a very fattening one. Today I start
the diet where I will hopefully lose some weight.
Day two hundred
seventy-seven
August 6, 2013: Okay, last
night I had a nightmare about cheating on my diet. I was shoving chips and cake
into my mouth and not even tasting it and I just kept on hating myself and
telling myself I needed to stop eating but I couldn't stop. I mean, I would
rather eat what ever I want than not, but honestly I didn't know dieting made
me that stressed.
Day two hundred seventy-eight
August 7, 2013: They need to
stop making Ice Age movies. That's all there is to it. The first one was really
good, and the second was good to, for a sequel, but number three and four where
just, just kind of sad really. There are some funny parts to them, and I guess
they aren't bad, but they aren't too great either.
Day two hundred
seventy-nine
August 8, 2013: After tonight
I have a four day weekend, and it actually happens over the week end. I plan on
spending a lot of lay back time during the longest break before I start school.
How can I be so eager yet dreading it at the same time?
Day two hundred
eighty
August 9, 2013: I have heffalumps
and woozles stuck in my brain from listening to that song this morning. It
won’t stop playing over and over in my head.
Day two hundred
eighty-one
August 10, 2013: Things I
learned this week:
No learning this week, I start
school too soon.
Day two hundred
eighty-two
August 11, 2013: Did a little
bit of shopping today. JCPenney was having a really good sale and I bought a
shirt and a sweater.
Day two hundred
eighty-three
August 12, 2013: Slept in this
morning so I am getting ready to go running now.
Day two hundred
eighty-four
August 13, 2013: This is it
for today. I promise the entries will get longer. I’m just facing a lazy spell
right no.
Day two hundred
eighty-five
August 14, 2013: My room is
dark; I write these words even as the glow from the computer screen is the only
light falling upon my face. Daylight would find its way inside, but my curtains
are shut, to keep in the dark, and keep out the warmth. In less creepy words,
it’s getting warm outside and my curtains are shut to keep it cool in my room,
though it doesn’t seem to be working very well.
Day two hundred
eighty-six
August 15, 2013: I slept in
today and skipped exercise. I’ll do it on Saturday instead, since I am working
that day anyway it is not going to be a special day.
Day two hundred
eighty-seven
August 16, 2013: I have today
off. My last day off before beginning college. I work both Saturday and Sunday.
That should be against the rules, or something.
Day two hundred
eighty-eight
August 17, 2013: This month as
been incredible. I am actually getting credit apps. Usually I’m lucky if I get
one or two but this month I am getting a couple a week. I hope I can keep it up.
I know it really is just straight up luck but you know how it is. If I don’t
get credit apps, even if I ask every flippin’ body and their brother my hours
will get cut unless I get credit apps.
Day two hundred
eighty-nine
August 18, 2013: Sunday really
is the worst day to work. It is so slow and boring and it feels like I am
working all day because in the morning there is church, and then after work I
get home too late in the evening to do much.
Day two hundred ninety
August 19, 2013: I started
school today. Read some of my text books, (only the online version is available,
yuck) and basically planed what I will be doing the rest of the week. And they
seemed to have arrange the work is such a way that they force you to do some
work on Saturday. There are discussion questions I need to respond to by
Sunday, but the original posts I need to reply to aren’t due till 11:55 pm on
Friday. So unless the other students are proactive like me and make their main
posts before the deadline can I get it all done on Friday. Oh, Megan and Hannah
is here, visiting.
Day two hundred
ninety-one
August 20, 2013: I had
yesterday and I have today off, which makes it nice for my first two days of
school. Finished the text book reading, put up my main posts for discussion,
and started work on a couple of my assignments. Not a bad amount for about four
hours of work. My counselor called today, (are as I like to call her my student
sitter, as her main purpose now is to make sure I am getting my work done) and
was very surprised I had so much done. I was kind of surprised at her surprise.
All told for the two days I had only done about six hours of work. If I hadn’t
done that much work by now I would spend my entire week end doing school.
Day two hundred
ninety-two
August 21, 2013: I am working
every day this week. I know yesterday I said I had Monday and Tuesday off, but
what I meant was I had those two days off from JCP. The days I don’t work at
JCP I am doing my babysitting job.
Day two hundred
ninety-three
August 22, 2013: I am pleased
to say I have most of my school work done, and one of the assignments I was
somewhat freaking out about I am actually almost finished with. I had trouble
getting into the college library and our library here is not worth peanuts so I
was worried exactly where I was going to find the ten gajilion sources you need
for a paper. That is all sorted out and I now have full access to several
online databases.
Day two hundred
ninety-four
August 23, 2013: You know what
I have been failing to do. Post these up on my blog. I think the last one I did
was August 1st. I don’t know why I haven’t been. I don’t really have
a reason. I just haven’t been. School update, it goes well and luckily there
were enough proactive people I got all of my school done. Also, I think Ollie
might be bulimic. She’s not eating very much and she keeps throwing up. Mum
thinks she’s sick but I know that cats don’t get sick where they throw up, they
get worms. The cat has image issues, poor thing.
Day two hundred
ninety-five
August 24, 2013: I work today,
but I have the next four days off, which I am not happy about. I only work
three days a week at JCP the next two weeks, and I might even lose one of those
days because my supervisor messed up on the scheduling and scheduled me for a
time I had told her I couldn't do.
