Being Me on the Blog #001 - end of summer, Vacation time, The start of editing my novel, Interviews as an author

Hello Everyone,

I've not being writing for many reasons. First because I'm busy with other commitments namely my job, and secondly I'm not sure what to write about. Whenever I get a topic I end up censoring myself and thinking nah boring. Or maybe I should just be myself...

Being myself is easy, though at times I think is it too boring. Anyway lets be myself today.

Notting Hill Carnival - The end of Summer...

The Carnival was awesome and I soca-danced myself crazy with some good beats. Here are some pictures of the carina.

Finished First Read-Through of draft Novel

Some good parts, and some work to be done. Overall I was very pleased on the outcome.

Fabulous right?

Ideas for Marketings

The carnival gave me some bold ideas for marketing. Not for the faint hearted, but it was rather progressive and proactive. I don't mean the carnival colours. I guess I'll expand nearer the time since I'm still mulling the details over. As I said not for the faint hearted.

Finally On Vacation!

This is from the block of apartments where I'm staying. I'll be hitting the beach soon.

Yes, I 'm in the sunny climes, near the sea with plenty of sun.....So I shall be relaxing and chilling well basically Chillaxing and getting my groove back.

Up Date on Happenings: Newly Single & 17% pay raise.

Hey Everyone, So update since my last entry. Well I had a brief fling with Mr Sexy Guy and decided he wasn't the one for me. He was cool but I learned the difference between lust, chemistry and personality. It just didn't tango for me. I'm still grossly overweight, well, fat. I don't think there is anything wrong with being called fat. I am fat. I need to lose weight but that means getting organised and stop eating delicious food. Then again my knees are hurting me and joints feel the ache. I also haven't been to the gym in three months despite paying for it. But when I do, I normally go for the sauna, hot tub and steam room session. I've thought of cancelling the exorbitant membership but in the climate apart from bills it's the one thing that is just for me...that when I use it. Work is fine, managed to get a 17% pay raise. A big thanks to my boss who also pushed for it. It's good to work for people who support you in that matter. I think tha...

Goals - one thing at a time - weekly or less frequent blog. Yoga was HARD! Still on track with eating plan,

Despites all my good words, I am slipping back into old bad habits and overloading myself with things to do. Distractions. Everything is important. So I've decided to get tough with myself and focus on my major goal. The one that will be most beneficial to me and a causality of that will be writing this blog daily or near daily. So I'm going to be focusing on my major goal and push myself to focus and I think all the other activities, and I mean a lot are diluting from the process. This means getting rid of non-value adding activities. Oh dear, I sound rather corporate. My week so far. If Pilate nearly killed me, then in Yoga was the firing line. OMG! What is it with these gym classes being so dynamic! When I mean dynamic I mean break-into-a-sweat dynamic. I'd never hadn't had such a difficult class - obviously I was the largest. Okay - let's go fat-shaming- don't you just love that word? I was the fattest by a long stretch. And the unfittest. My body was ou...

HAPPY NEW YEAR - LET THE GOALS ROLL

Hello all. Happy New Year! So last year was awesome for me because I managed to achieve one goal. The biggest goal which was to get a new job. And that came with financial reward as well. Yay! It was hard, challenging, horrible. I hate change but I had to get out of the rut I was in. Dudes, I was desperate to move. So I dug deep, did my interview practice, attended a number of interviews and hit one. Yay. Now longer gaming. I didn't need the escapism with my new positive work environment. I also abandoned the iPhone family and went Android. To cut a long story short, I got bought an iPhone 8 but it was faulty - however Apple weren't transparent about their return policy - ALWAYS ASK ABOUT RETURN POLICY. Nor did they believe the phone was faulty. It was. Anyway I was so disgusted the arrogance of the 'apple people', I decided instead of getting a replacement to spend my money elsewhere. I'm still part of the Apple family. But the Apple Store sales assist...
