Moving Forward

Mood: Calm
Music: Stayin' Alive - Bee Gees
Thought for the day: One should not make decisions for ones self based on what one thinks others may be thinking or doing. Make your decision based on what you know, what you are dealing with, and what is best for you right now. Others who wish to be involved will catch up.

Nag, nag, nag ... I'm not lazy, I'm just busy ...

Busy hunting for a second job (or a better first one) and making sure my resume says what I think it does. Trying to find the cash to keep up with my current crises ... and sacrificing some to make it. It's unfortunate that Mom has been picking up the parts that I've been dropping. She can't afford that. Not that that will stop her, but there you go.

I've been trying to thin my things a bit. Donating, or tossing, as needed, and things have thinned down a bit, but I don;t know that I really had that much to begin with. (The PartyLite doesn't count. That's inventory, not "stuff" ... and it's getting lower too.)

For those of you that knew, I recently did a fundraiser for the RCL Poppy Fund. I finally finalised everything and sent the donation in today. I raised $60 for them. I'm proud ... and now that I know what I am doing, I hope to have more success with fundraising. I'll be doing one charity a month ... did I mention that already? Well, that's the plan. November's charity will be the Food Bank, I think. December - Santa's Anonymous. We'll see how it goes ...

Not too much going on right now. Spot's numbers are still high, but slowly coming down. I'm looking at insurance for him ... despite his age. If he's going to start needing expensive trips to the vet, I'd like to be better prepared for them.

November is looming before me ... I am ready. I will survive. No, I will do more than just survive. I will reach for my dreams and I will touch them ...

2012 will be the end of the world as I know it. I will leave all this crap behind and step into happiness instead.

Sweet Dreams
