Here we go again....and again...and again...

Music: "Twilight Overture," by Carter Burwell

Another week, gone. And what did I accomplish? Absolutely nothing. Am I complaining? No. I decided to just relax this week, and I really didn't want this week to go by as fast as it did. I caught up on sleep, cleaned house, even bought a few Christmas presents. I'm not a fan of last-minute shopping, but I plan on getting everyone taken care of in the next couple of weeks. 

I can't believe December is almost here. Seems like just yesterday I was still working at the store, and making what I had decided would be my very last attempt to get hired on at the warehouse. I had figured that if I hadn't heard anything by the first of February, I'd start looking elsewhere. Now, (yesterday, actually) I have made 10 months at the warehouse. Another two will be my one year anniversary. I'll do my yearly looking-back post when the end of the year approaches. For now, I have to keep focused on my ultimate goal. Tomorrow starts the process all over again. I am so very anxious to move forward, but I keep hitting a wall (ever seen the Sears commercial where the two kids run smack into the refrigerator?); December will be the true test, as Saturday I will officially be at 100% production. I've taken the past couple of weeks and really focused on what I need to do, to get better and better, and I've seen the rewards of it (see last post), pushed out everything else, and kept my mind on work. Three days a week of keeping up mentally, as well as physically. You have to be fast, and  you have to be aware of where you are going at all times. Apparently, it seems to be working, as one of my friends mentioned earlier in the week. That wall I was talking about? It's being sure that I have a 'cushion' so-to-speak. You're never sure what the next day is going to bring, but I am still very much looking forward to moving out on my own, and am still shooting to make my move before summer, one way or another. I just have to be sure I can support myself (without the need for a roommate). 

I'm seeing that light at the end of the tunnel again...it's a little dim, but it is there. I've had to take care of some things financially that I wasn't prepared for, but that's life for you. As I said in my last post, the next three months will be the true test. 

This is going to be fun! :)

So with that said, it's back to work I go........since I didn't win Powerball. :P
