Another Week Starts

Here I am postponing getting ready for work because that means another week has started. And I'm not ready for it. Although the weekend provided some much needed fun and excitement....it did not provide adequate relaxation time. Time for me to just sit back, relax and actually gain some much needed rest. Time that is much needed these days. The time that would make me feel prepped to face another week.

Supposedly this week is going to be more laid back than last week. We're supposed to be wrapping up on a client and so the work is pretty much done. We're just wrapping up some final paperwork which needs to be done, but hopefully that will require our minimum hours...which I still believe is 50 for the week :-(

but I've probably already jinxed it all by actually believing that its going to be a slow week. Because it being a slow week would mean I'd actually be able to do my other job and show up to dance practice during the week. Which, btw we have another choreographer coming on Thursday and he is amazing! Jaffar...he is Tessie's fiance (tessie was who we had in about a week ago). So I'm absolutely stoked for that, but hopefully I'll be able to make it.

So here is to the start of another week. One I'm not prepared for, but that will hopefully bring some kind of detoxification to my nervous system as I don't think my body can handle much more stress. It needs the next 4 weeks off from a busy client so that I can be somewhat prepared for the start of busy season which is looming over my head.

No more stalling now....back to work

Restless nights

On a night where I should be enjoying the solitude and the calmness I'm restless. The first night in weeks for which I have had no responsibilities. No commitments. Just the ability to sit back and relax. But low and behold I'm antsy. Go Figure. Story of my life.

This weekend should prove to be a lot of fun and provide plenty of stress relief. First I have my work holiday party.....which I'm SO excited for. I didn't go last year and wasn't really interested in going, but this year is different. I'm firmly established in my company, i have a lot of friends to share the night with and it should prove to be a VERY fun night

Then sunday we have my dance team's holiday party. And i haven't seen my girls in a week because of my work schedule. I'm looking forward to this one probably even more than the other party. Just because I love these girls so much. They give me so much happiness.

Tonight got me thinking about a lot of things. Which tends to happen to me when I have too much time and nothing to focus my energy on. It had me thinking about love and relationships. About where i want to go in regards to that. Most of my friends from high school are married and with kids. Or like my cousins, they are engaged to be married. I'm one of the last of the cousins of my age to get engaged. And while its kinda sad, i also have no inclination to be in a relationship right now. I'm having absolutely way too much fun in my single life. Plus, I don't have the time to put forth a good effort to making a relationship work. And thats not fair to any man I'd decide to be with. So for now, I'll live my life as is and wait for the day that I finally realize I'm ready. Because if I have to ask myself if I'm ready to be committed than I'm not. The day will come and I'll know it without asking.....at least thats my philosophy.

A good day....so few but so amazing

So today was a good day. Another one.....can you believe it?

I'm kinda flabbergasted. HAHA. It was still work, but I felt accomplished today. I had a list of things I needed to get done, and I got almost everything I needed to finished. So I feel a sense of relief flowing over me. Because the end is almost near for this deadline and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. We're coming through and Christmas is almost here. A couple weeks to relax and I am counting down the days till that time.

So what do you do on a night where you get off work early (as in 8:30pm)....funny how thats early, and you're happy.....hmmm. Thats right, you have a little dinner and you watch Private Practice....one of my only guilty pleasures these days. So here I am.....relaxing...for once! Thank goodness.

So on a night like tonight I'm saying my prayers and being grateful for whats been given to me. Because even though these days are few and far between....I'll take what I can get. Especially when I've had two good days in a row.
