 --------------------------------------------

 Jenn & Jessica

My goals for last week-

1. WORK OUT 3 TIMES- SMH I am just so lazy,

2. GET MY LAUNDRY DONE AND PUT AWAY- YES!

3. PLAN DINNER MEALS OUT- SORT of, I believe the whole point of meal planning to spend less time in the grocery store right? and spend less money and time. we didn't go out and buy a bunch of groceries everyday, instead we really just planned daily with what we had in our pantry and freezer, which is still a +plus, right?

4. FIND OUT ABOUT COLLEGE LOANS- did not do this either, next week? im off wed. so hopefully I will get it together.

5. DO SOMETHING WITH MY HAIR- ok this was just because I didn't have anything better to use, I'm too scared to cut my hair and/or DYE it a bright color! haha

Ok my goals for this week-

 

1. WORK OUT ONCE THIS WEEK!-come on! I can do once right? :/ I don't know whether I'm just plain lazy or tired ! I do walk/ stand a lot at work, that has to count for something! I can do one workout- at least at home on the Treadmill ..I WILL DO IT today!

2. FIND OUT ABOUT SCHOOL- I'm pretty sure I'm too late for this semester, i keep procrastinating, but I have to find out at least 

3. PLAN DINNER MEALS OUT- going to try to go grocery shopping once and have it all planned out.

4. DON'T SPEND ANY MONEY THIS WEEK- on extra things! bills of course, but I have an addiction to fast food and nail polish.....let's see how much money I can save!

5.  GET ON PINTEREST MORE & TRY AT LEAST TWO NEW RECIPES- This could also be for planning my meals but I needed my last goal for the week LOL

I worked Friday & Saturday Over night shift, which BTW SUCKS! Friday we really didn't do too much...went to the pet store to pick up fish food & stopped at the post office , then I tried to sleep for my over night shift. Saturday I stayed in the house for the most part... Josiah & I went to pick up our lunch from Ihop..& he snapped a few pictures. lol then I went into work, Tired as I don't know what [&^@%#$^] with a bunch of drunks in the hotel .. did I mention I hate my job? Sunday (I slept) ate, then (I slept) some more. Then I rekindled the relationship with my cousin. We got an argument almost a year ago...haven't spoken since until this past week. I have learned to live and forget. It's kind of my new motto...You have to live & forget all the bullshit from the past. Hey, it's working so far! we had dinner & a drink from Abuelo's!
