The Purple Journal

• I am getting my performance bonus and "special" bonus tomorrow! I can wait....
• I am buying a car - Hyundai Getz...I will post a pic here when I take delivery..
• I plan to do some (a lot!) of scrapbook shopping with some of it YAY!!
• Work is WORK...I am not happy here and am just waiting it out for 2 months then I will start looking seriously for another job
• I feel like I am constantly behind on all the things I need to be doing - my learnership I have been busy with the current project for over 6 months and feel like I just cant FINISH!
• I have a varsity assignment that was due on Monday and I havent started...I just cant get motivated to get it DONE in this cold...when I get home in the veneings, I just want to get under the blankets and watch TV until bedtime...its SO COLD!
• Weather has been horrific - we were supposed to have temperatures of -2 yesterday, but apparently, it only got to 2 degrees..cold enough if you ask me! There is no sign of respite - we are going to get some SNOW this week! how COLD is THAT going to be!
• I am also going to get myself some books to help me through this cold weather! I definitely want the Sound of Paper, and maybe the Dan Brown book - there is 1 I have not yet read.
• I want to plan an evening out on Saturday with Jerome...hope that works out...

Thats all for now....

Happy Wednesday!

I have been mia for a while - life has been a bit hectic! I dont have the time or freedom I used to have to blog... I really miss it so am going to try to blog early mornings when I just get in to work before there are people around...I am not unhappy here, just dont feel as free as I used to feel with my own office and making my own rules!

Some good things have happened:

• I have received my payslip and my bonus is HUGE! I will be able to buy myself a small car and do a few other things I have been wanting to do
• children are both doing well at school

Other things I have been worrying about:

• have not handed in my assignment which was due on MONDAY!
• my needs analysis is STILL not finished!
• worrying about my role hjere at work

Things I have been doing that i want to stop

• eating wrong! I have been having pies for lunch everyday - I need to start bringing my salad in to wiork everyday again
• no scrapbooking
• watching too much tv

Things want to start doing:

• scrapbooking again
• reading more
• more creativity
• revisit my goals for 2006 and start working on those again

I havent even started Rhonna's Challenge 3 - I want to do that as well...hopefully will strat with that again - I found the challenge helps me to make a commitment to the goal I am trying to achieve so I WILL start that today - will post tomorrow my journalling

Happy Wednesday!

• I have moved office and now live in a new building with new colleagues and a whole new reporting line
• My husband had an ear operation
• my son had chicken pox
• my home helper's daughter was sick - she was away fro a week
• I have 2 overdue assignments that I cant seem to get done

These are the higlights - so I have not worked on my 21 day journal - but optimist that I am I am telling myself that I will "catch up"....I believe in the challenge but things have been too hectic

I have been snapping up a storm, but blogger is not allowing me to post - so I will try tomorrow

Happy Monday!
