Hope you had a great day. This afternoon I was getting ready to shut down and a notification came up that something was due today. I had to stay another couple hours to get it done 🤦🏼♀️. Cannot believe I missed the first notification. Anyway…thought I’d show off my sexy calves😋. I love motivational quotes. I’ve shown you the one I got today and I’m thinking of putting in my family room above the lamp. I’ll have to see if it fits first though.
I’ve been pretty busy working around the house. I repotted some plants, attached a skillet rack in the cabinet, spray painted the mirror, wrapped the island in this vinyl type wallpaper. Actually had it at the apartment and was able to remove it and reuse it. I got this shoe cabinet and put it together. I’ve had to do some cleaning to. I really hate cleaning 😖. I am super pleased with how the mirror looks! I almost want to get some chrome or silver foil to brush on the filigree areas. Went to the gym this morning and had it all to myself for about 30min. I videoed a few deadlifts. The lighting was such that made my muscles pop😁. I’m still experiencing DOMS pretty bad, but I try to push thru dropping the weight and having great reps and time under tension.
I’m gearing up for a meeting with corporate and my boss tomorrow regarding this one project and reportings. It’s not going to be fun. I’m also preparing myself to possibly having to work the weekend. I’m going to try my hardest to get things together to close with accurate numbers. I’ve had to make some corrections to accounts and I’m not exactly certain if my numbers are correct…totally related to some other balance sheet accounts. Luckily it’s just leased vehicles and employee allowance so doesn’t hit the P&L. This month financials need to be solid!
Finished a small project. I put this shoe cabinet together and anchored it to the wall today. Decided to get a couple African violets and a mini orchid for the top. Kinda cute, huh😋
Hey all. For those of you who’ve sent messages this past week I promise I will reply this weekend. I’ve just been trying to catch up on sleep and take care of some personal matters along with work stuff. My nightmare error doesn’t want to go away. However, will say the boss was very understanding that it was just a simple mistake and an inconvenient time. His boss probably feels the same, but it’s that persons boss that’s been pushing for more answers…probably because he doesn’t understand English well.
Started at the new gym this morning. It was crowded with equipment! There was only 5 of us in there, but I felt I was in the way as there’s not much space between dumbbell rack and some equipment. There was one woman that was all over the place and kept coming back to the dumbbells. I just have to get familiar with things and I’ll be fine, transitions can sometimes be challenging. Off to bed. 😘
It’s official…I’ve turned in my keys to the apartment complex. I’ve officially lost gym access😩😬. I’m being alittle dramatic actually. I went to a local gym up the road and got 7 day trial access. The girl told me at most they had like 10 people at most at one time and that’s usually at lunchtime. She said they’re may be a couple people in there at 5ish AM. I suppose I will see tomorrow morning. Have a great night. I’m off to bed for so I can get up early. 😘
We had company at work today so had to dress up. Still struggling with my mood 😔. Hope you’re having a better day 😘.
Sorry, I’m just not the best company right now. Just trying to get this blip in life. All I can do is remind myself that this is temporary, learn from it, grow and be stronger. However, when going through it optimism is a little bleak
I’m wanting to start growing some fruits and veggies. I can’t create new planting beds without HOA approval so I was thinking of using grow bags from Amazon. Anyone have any experience with them? Any tips or tricks? I’m thinking I may do a small drip irrigation into the plants. I’m looking to grow cherry tomatoes, small cucumbers, squash, zucchini, and sweet peppers. Thought about some strawberries and blueberries as well. Maybe some lettuces too. My ex brought over an old compost tumbler last week so I’m psyched about composting again. I know you probably think she’s super weird being excited about composting. I just feel better my fresh food waste can turn into dirt. Would love to have some earthworms too, but fear it’ll be too hot for them in the compost tumbler. Okay, off to bed. 😘
This weekend I’m going to pretty much nothing. Just would like to play in the dirt to get my energy back. Thinking of getting some grow bags to start some veggies growing. Anyone had any experience with them? Curious to know how well they work 🙃
Just remember none of us are error free. I’ve had a really rough past few days that I keep beating myself up over. I made an error at work by entering the wrong date on one expense invoice. Problem is that one invoice was over $1M😫. I could come up with several excuses for my error, but at the end of the day there is no excuse. I have a job to provide accurate financial information and I failed to do that 😔😢.
Love how muscular I look in this top😁. I’ve gained 1/2” in my biceps within last year. So 13” on the left and 12.5” on the right 😄. I’m off to bed. Mentally drained!!!!!
I ended up working all day yesterday and today doing tax returns…my own, my ex, some family and a coworker. I honestly didn’t think it’d take 2 straight days 🙄. I’m ready for some me time!!!! Have a wonderful night 😘
New glasses for computer work😁.
Soooo stoked…I got a 10.29% annual raise! That was on top of the 4% I got 6 months into the job. I actually had a discussion with my boss about that one expressing my disappointment. Just goes to show you that hard work and efforts can pay off!!! Honestly, I had gotten a very late start in my career. Took me 10 yrs between my undergrad and MBA degrees. When I graduated, I was obese and basically discriminated against to the point I gave up looking for a few years. The only job I could get was a part time position with a small tax office and I did that for years. Ever since then all my job moves have been for full time, benefits, more pay, gain skills, and/or better position. I have worked damn hard for every job I ever had, nothing was given to me freely. I proved my worth each time! Yes, a little luck helps, but even then you have to set yourself up and create your own luck sometimes. 🤨
Worked over 13 hrs yesterday. Basically, 9 straight 11 hrs days and adding another today. 😩😮💨. I’m so fucking over this. I’ve gone above and beyond what normal people do for work! I’ve been begging my boss that I need help. That this company is NOT a one person accounting position. Problem is the person that’s helping has no accounting experience, but has been with the company for 10 yrs. If she can’t hack my portion of the job they’ll cut her back to part time. I don’t want that stress on me, but I need a capable ap/ar person. I’m trying to give her data entry type tasks but she’s making errors and I NEED her to be more accurate. I’m trying to learn her learning style, but it’s hard. 😔.
Good news is I bought this bag off Facebook and they guy even delivered it to me Sunday …so grateful and desperately needed!!!!
Almost 70 hrs working this week and back in tomorrow as normal and however late I have to stay 😩. I’m exhausted!!! Pleas forgive me if you’ve sent a message in the past few days and I haven’t replied. 😔
😩😩😩. I’m so fucked. I forgot how much work went into reporting financials to corporate for our Fiscal Year End. I swear there’s about 100 tabs in the spreadsheet of more details not reporting the rest of the months😫. I may be staying the night at work for next 2 days to get it all done😭😭😭
So I only worked 10 hrs today 😬. Back again tomorrow. I’m hopeful I will be out by 3. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. I’m wanting to purchase that on the last pic. I sooo miss hitting on a bag. Okay need to get some sleep up at 6 to workout, shower, get back to the office. 😘 thanks for sticking with me
Another long day at work. I’m definitely going to be working this weekend 😩. Been pushing 11 hr days this week.
Wanted to share a couple projects I’ve actually completed around the house. There was an empty space between vanity and shower. Plus the vanity had zero drawers. Got this little cabinet and with some modifications I was able to get it to fit in the small space. Other than being frustrated with the neighbor crap I ended up taking the entire side off vs notching out the wall corner. I glued it back. I hung a couple towel racks. Pretty much kept the room setup. I still have some projects, but working this weekend. Hopefully I get to do some gardening soon.
Some days are just hard. I am a strong woman, but sometimes things just become too much. 😢. Yes. At the end of the workout the online trainer always gives motivational inspirational words. I started crying. She was just saying you are strong and you can do this and you deserve it.
Good evening. Rushing this morning for a meeting and forgot to take pics so took some tonight. Wish I had time to play and video. Maybe later this week. One of my friends sent me a vid of a woman sitting on a man’s face. He wants me to do that next time we’re together. I’ve included our exchange. We were talking about a couple guys I’ve met over the weekend, but just not feeling anything. I was telling my friend that I wasn’t necessarily physically attracted to him, but how excited he gets being with me makes him attractive to me. Thought you may enjoy the exchange and don’t think your partners need to be drop dead gorgeous or 10/10. Average works with the right energies. 😘
Happy Easter 🐣. Sheriffs been to my place twice today 🙄. Pia neighbor bitching about my music being too loud. The first time I told the cop I wanted to establish an acceptable level then. We did and he went in his way. I was surprised to see him the 2nd time. This time there was 2 sheriffs so one was in neighbors place while I adjusted the volume. After several times lowering it. I got pissed and shut soundbar off and it was just the TV. I said that was unacceptable for me. 😤. We have shared walls. He’s going to accept a certain level of sound😠
I really am impressed with my backside. With the mirror angle I’m able to see it more and I think it actually looks good 😊. Is there room for improvement, yes absolutely 😘.
I was so reluctant to get an Apple Watch, but now I’m able to use it as ammunition of facts when my neighbor starts cussing me for my music being too loud. Normal conversation is 60-70 decibels, vacuum cleaner 70-80, and a noisy restaurant is 80-90. In my own home I was 70-90. Found out from the construction manager there 12” solid wall and insulation between the townhouse. I’m not going to let him bully me and I’m to going to stoop to cussing him out. I will simply present the facts along wit no mention of noise in covenants. He’s just going to have to deal with it or soundproof his own house because I think he’s being unreasonable 😏
Hey y’all😘. Bring on warmer weather😁. Started some projects around the house. My x had me get my plants and other stuff. I’m headed to Home Depot for some gardening stuff to start some veggies. I want a garden, but really need to map out and submit something to architectural review before I can create a garden. That reminds me. I owe you a tour😉. Not that everything is setup, but some is. Off to bed. Night night 😘
So apparently I’m a piece of shit🙄. Neighbor decided to come complain about my music being too loud. I was working on a project in the upstairs bathroom and I wasn’t stopping when I heard him yelling at me. Then saw the notification on my ring doorbell cam and he’s at my front door cussing me up and down as he paces. Well he’s just gonna have to get over it because I looked up the covenants and nothing is said about loud music. Only mention of noise is barking dogs and no outside sounds systems or sirens unrelated to security. And I know the county ordinance is 10pm weekdays and 11 pm for weekends and loud noise. So fuck him😏. I. WILL NOT BE BULLIED!
Phew! 😮💨 some relief that budget numbers got reviewed and hopefully approved to submit before 3/31 deadline. Half day tomorrow and holiday Gri and Mon. I’ll be working some as our fiscal year end is this month and the month has to be closed and financials due 4/9😩😖. Come on May!!! I think I’ll catch my breath then. I still 5 tax returns to prepare including my own. Okay off to ged. Have a great night 😘
