My Goals For 2006


Seems like every year I have a plan. “This time I’m going to stick to it!” I always say. Well this year is no different! I'm making goals and THIS TIME I'm going to work really hard to stick to them and not stray. For me. I will do this for ME.


1. Get back on track with weight watchers and stick to it. I want to reach my goal weight of 1’something by June. Even if it is 199.

2. Alone with #1, I will commit to some form of exercise at least once a day. I truly have no excuse for this. My exercise “routine” consists of a 10 min workout. There is just no excuse in the world why I can’t do this 10 min. I also have the opportunity to walk in my building at work. The building is a square and I see groups of women mostly walking briskly down the halls (they are very long. I would even say it would about a half mile…. It’s huge) at lunch time, so there is no reason why I can’t get into that mix or just do it on my own.

3. Buy a better car

4. Put away at least 10-20 dollars a week in savings AND NOT TOUCH IT!! Give it to someone if I have too…whatever it takes.

5. Pay my mom back. She’s been so great about this loan and I truly appreciate it and feel really horrible on my commitment to paying her back…but this year I will do so.

6. Pay by my other loan before they take my car away. This should actually be #1.

7. Not take advantage of my flexibility in my day job and get to work when I should be there…

8. Get my place organized better. Maybe a new coat of paint. Different colors. Something new. I would love to get new furniture, but I really don’t see that happening unless I see it at a garage sale REAL cheap!!

9. Quit smoking – shudap!!

10 And finally…. stop looking for love and just let it find me. Continue to make great friends and have fun.

So there are you top 10 goals for 2006. Reasonable…I would say so. Do-able…most definitely. I didn’t’ want to get crazy with this list, I just wanted to be more realistic in my goals and I think I have accomplished that.

Well I think that I'm going to actually do my report that needs to be done tomorrow as I have all the information that I need and take tomorrow off to have a lovely 4 day weekend!! YEAH BABY!!

Well in the invent that I do not update until next year…. I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. I do hope that all your dreams and wishes come true and that you spread that love to your family and friends.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HOLIDAYS, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

Hugs, Jeannine

brrr...

Its to damn cold outside. Now I don't mind cold weather....40's, 50's, but below zero....I can do without. To damn cold. Makes me hurt. brrr

hmmm.....I wish I can say my life has been so freaking exciting and I just have TONS to tell you about...But the fact is...I don't. Some things have been going on but not really all that exciting.

Sarah left for TX on Sunday to visit with her family for the holidays. She'll be gone for a week and a half and its kinda nice. kinda nice not to have to worry about her for a while. cuz when she's here (which she never is) I worry. Its peaceful, I come home without knots in my stomach wondering what I'm going to come home too.....I'm actually bored and I don't mind. I do miss her though. But even when she is here...she's never home. Ever.

the new job is going ok. I finished a week of training last week and Saturday was my first day on the floor. Basically just shadowing the store manager (who is 19 BTW....Ugh) watching her and she was teaching me as well. I did do some transactions but when it came to actually selling a phone....I just observed. I'm not really sure about this job. I'm giving it a month......If by the end of January I still don't get it...I'm going to have to leave it. There is so much technical stuff and so so many steps to actually giving someone service....That I'm not sure I can handle it by myself. Well let me rephrase that....I'm not sure I want to HAVE to handle it by myself. When I ventured out to make some extra money...I was thinking a no brainer kinda job. I think enough in my day job....I don't want to have to think that much in a part time. Make sense? This job requires a whole lot of thinking that my already tired brain might not be able to handle. So we'll see.

I met this woman over the weekend who I swear is like my double. We are so much alike in so many ways that I know we are going to be great friends. We hung out all weekend and had a blast. And NO...This is not a "potential"...she's already "married" and they have a child together. Anyway....It was great to meet her over the weekend and hang out.

I can't find my damn nail clippers. argh!!

so the holidays are creeping up and I have yet to buy anyone anything and honestly I really don't think I will either. I'm thinking gift cards. I'm telling you people.....I'm just not in the mood this year. Not one little bit. I hope that by next year I will be more in the spirit...But right now, the sooner it is over the better.

its probably because I'm going to be alone. Well I don't have to be, I do have friends.....But like....My mom is missing, Sarah is missing, my new friend is going to be away, so she's missing.....The house is going to be quiet....There just isn't much going on. No bingo either....Sucks.

ba-humbug

Let it (STOP) Snow!!


so there is a nice shot our backyard. you can click on the pic for the full screen shot. see my wonderful shoveling job.....ain't it purdy!! thats my car way back there. i shoveled a path to the gate then the entire back section there for my car and sarah's car. shes not home obviously. she spent the night at her friends house in chicago and told her not to come home cuz it was really bad last night as you can see. its much better today. the roads are clear. did you hear about that plane that couldn't land and ended up in the streets???? scary. its bad enough trying to drive in the snow, but then to have a plane coming at you where PLANES should not be!!! i can't even imagine.

so there really isn't to much going on here. i start my part time job on monday. i went in today to fill out the paperwork and stuff....and im really looking forward to getting started. i even got paid for an hour today!! im liking this job...lol i didn't even try to go to work today. from what i heard i made the right decision. the roads were still bad this morning and my tires are practically bald....really need to get that done. soon! so i decided to stay home. my appt was at 11 this morning so it really didnt' make sence to try.

hmmm....other than that....i have nothing new to talk about. oh...my nights of bingo are most likely gone now. thats pretty sad. im going tomorrow night and that will most likely be my last night for a while. so sad.......well at least ill be busy working. thats a plus.

ok...well im going to end this dribble now. im boring myself to tears here. thank you to those who responded to why i love you entry.....that was fun.

and for those who didn't respond...i still love ya!!! :o)

have a great weekend!!!
