When life sweeps you away

.. yeah its been very busy lately. Hence why I haven't updated in a couple of weeks.

Work's going well, they've been giving me some shifts so i'm over the moon. I'm enjoying the job, learning things on a daily basis. Only had 2 customer's yell at me (both were for things I couldn't control), so i'm pleased about that. So all in all thats going great.

I'm reading some of mum's books, since i've got no library membership (and i can't get one for the city council in "town" until i move into town), and I have no "book buying" budget to speak of! Its driving me batty lol though on the other hand, I havent really had a heck of a lot of spare time to read. Nevermind though, I'm sure it wont be too long until I'm back to using Goodreads on a daily basis because of the fabulous books im reading, and have heard about and want to read!

I've been working on my 101 things in 1001 days lately, or at least trying to. A few of them are reliant on finances. But i'm planning on sitting down and writing some more after i'm done here. Who knows maybe i'll start writing some more entries to go on my book blog? we'll see.

Went for a bit of a walk this morning to the local "post office" (read: gas station/petrol station with post boxes, since there's no mail delivery to the actual houses around here). Took us about 45minutes - 1hr to get there, post what i needed to post, and then walk back. Not a bad way to spend the morning I must admit.

Well I can't think of anything even slightly interesting to post, the past couple of weeks, sorry! will try to write again soon! Hope you're all well and happy.. i miss you guys! xoxox

Update Continued

So where was I, oh yes - the whole cooking dinner thing. It was really yummy, turns out we didn't have as much rice as I thought we did so I ended up cooking some noodles and dad and patrick both loved it so YAY :) Its been awhile since i cooked something interesting - I missed it, so i've decided to make an effort to cook/bake more often.

Job hunting: still going with that. I haven't had any work from my current employer in about 3months now which is frustrating, its not really their fault, its just how things are at the moment. I've been continuing my efforts to find something with more hours. I'm more than happy to keep going with my current job if my second job's hours fit its just a case of getting that other job. I've been touching base with places i applied at when i first got here but unfotrunately nothing's come up. I'll keep it up though - something will come along I know it will. I just need to hang in there and stay positive.

Oh I mentioned the challenge for this year huh? well there's a wee thing called "101 things in 1001 days" that I decided to do. I'll post my list here in a few days, I still have 1 more thing to add to the list and to triple check I haven't got multiple's again heh. Its actually a lot more fun than doing new years resolutions. I'll talk more about it next time though k?

The weather has been insanely hot for my tastes. There are days when I have to force myself to eat even the smallest thing cos the heat has supressed my appetite. Then there are the days when its so hot you'll break a sweat just walking from the lounge to the kitchen for a drink lol those are probably my least favourite days. But they do say the first couple of summer's are the worst for people who didn't grow up here. Though I know a few people who grew up here who still struggle to make it through summer.

Well i'd better finish this up, i've got some emails to send :) I'll try to remember to update tomorrow!
