Day 5 Make a list of things you enjoy doing. 

Used to have an active list of things I enjoyed doing but nowadays I rarely do them due to work pressures and writing my novel-in-progress. These things sound simple but not so much but I'l list ten things. 
  1. Eating desserts but I need to calm down due to my teeth. Mostly bakery products, ice cream and some sweets or candy. I've got a sweet tooth but I'm measured since my last extraction. 
  2. Going to the cinema - though I haven't done this in years
  3. Writing stories though I'm still on the same one
  4. Taking writing courses - not time since I'm focusing on the story
  5. Reading books - this has taken a hit
  6. I used to love baking but watching my weight and time pressures
  7. Beach holidays - unwind time. 
  8. Singing but rarely do that anymore
  9. Drawing but that has taken a hit with the writing so no time.
  10. Visiting family 
  11. Hanging out on Scribophile but I should probably do less of that since it take up a lot of time. It's wind down time.
  12. watching movies, and though I subscribe to a Video club I rarely take films. 
  13. Shopping for stationery - I like note pads and pens
  14. The Sales though I've not been for a long time.
  15. Visiting the galleries and museums 

Nothing more. Perhaps I should use this as a measure of things I do.

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...
