Longest short week of my life

Work has been hell. I seriously have been going in early and leaving late. I guess it's the growing pains of moving warehouses and not having half your inventory in the same place. I think it's going to be that way for the next couple months. At least until after Christmas. The Christmas season rush is starting on Friday. It feels like it started Monday. I barely got through all of the order holds that were placed on Monday, today. Our UPS count usually drops during the week after Monday. It went up. Monday we had just over 1o0. Tuesday we had 155 and today we had 177. Most of the items were shipped through my shipping line. I. Am. So. Tired.

I slept in till the last possible moment this morning; pulled some jeans and socks on and left. I'm wearing the same shirt I did yesterday and the thing is, I really don't care right now. I want to sleep. But at the same time I don't want to get some much sleep that I feel gross or wake up at an ungodly hour.

Monday I went to go hang out with Jake. We were supposed to go to FHE after having our little chat, but by the time we noticed what time it was, we were an hour late. I don't claim to have known him all too well in the beginning, but now, I know why he isn't dating or why he's not too quick to wanting to start a family...at least a little bit. In short: he has had a really rough life. Lots of tough shiz to live though. We understand each other on a whole different level that other people, if we explained what we've gone through, wouldn't understand at all. It's weird. The people we hang out with, we go to their houses and they have pictures up with them and their parents and siblings all smiles.

Anyway, enough about that. All I know is that I definitely don't like Jake like that anymore. I do like him. He's a great friend and he understands what's gone in my life better than anyone other than my family. But it's totally jaded him. He likes girls, he talks about going out on dates with girls in the ward but never does anything about it.

*sigh* Life is certainly interesting right now....

and...

I.Am.So.Tired!!

Wow, Joyce, I didn't know about the two guys, I think you told me about Jake. So... how are things going with Blake? He sounds nice or is he out of the picture now? Can't wait to see you!

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...

No time

It's been roughly 5 weeks since I last posted anything. Work and school have almost literally sucked the life out of me. My dad and I just got internet at the house, which does make things a lot easier. Even then...I really don't have time to do any real studying. Here's a typical day for me: 7 a.m. alarm goes off. try to wake up. press snooze a couple of times. wouldn't be human if i didn't, right? 7:15 a.m. actually get out of bed 7:20 a.m. shower 7:30 a.m. get dressed for work 7:40 a.m. try to remember to: fill my water bottle grab a can of soup & crackers for lunch grab CNA books & supplies eat something on the way out the door then curse myself for forgetting to grab my smock and name tag. unlock/lock the front door, again. 7:45 a.m. drive to work 8 a.m - 4 p.m work 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. take coworker(s) home. 5 p.m. - 9 p.m. CNA class 9:15 p.m. change into pj's. find s...

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]
