Day 65

1. I'm not dead from soreness! Which means two things: 1) the bath worked! And 2) I've still got it!
2. I've been doing a weird collage thing from my ceiling. It's looking pretty cool! It doesn't photograph well so you will just have to believe me.
3. Got to finally start watching psych again. It only airs episodes online 30 days after the original airdate. I just saw the Halloween episode.
4. Got my new Netflix in the mail. Chess: in concert. It's a musical themed to chess, but the whole chess theme is more of a life metaphor rather than a bishop and a knight singing together. At least I think so. I'll keep you posted tomorrow when there is nothing on tv.
5. A child at work has started saying my name! Okay, it sounds more like "Day" but I know who she means. Now to get the other ones started.
6. I'm still just so happy I danced. I can't wait to go back.

Days 59-64

Again, I'm going to summarize.
1. Started a new collage project on the ceiling of my sunroom. It's lots of fun.
2. My aunt took me shopping for my Christmas present. We went to vintage stores around town and had sooo much fun!
3. Thanksgiving was great! Made rolls from scratch and had a great time with my family.
4. Saw The Muppets. Ah, it was so good! A real tribute.
5. Started decorating for Christmas. I don't have a lot but it works!
6. Got my desk back finally! All my furniture is present and accounted for.
7. Mom helped me clean up my apartment. It looks so good now!
8. I have leftovers for about four days worth!
9. Mom gave me a bunch of groupons and gift cards to cover for the days I'm not paid over the holidays. I probably won't have to buy anything with my own money for awhile!
10. Went to a contemporary dance class, kept up, and fooled them into thinking I was a teenager coming from another studio. They were shocked that I hadn't danced in eight years.

Day 58

1. Remembered to bring the pumpkin cake to work.
2. Potluck means no buying lunch.
3. Everyone loved my pumpkin cake! There was nothing left of it and so many people asked for the recipe I had to write out an original and let people make copies.
4. Chatted with Dad about our dissatisfaction with BBVA Compass and our impending departure in favor of a credit union. Losing my paycheck was pretty much the last straw.
5. In bed by 10:30!
6. Family will be in town tonight which means I get to see them tomorrow!

Days 54-57

You know what? I'm not stressing myself about this. I'm giving you a summary of the last few days in no real order. You can deal, right?
1. Finished the last chair!
2. Got lots of sleep over the weekend.
3. Got some good groceries.
4. Had an amazing chiropractic adjustment which was sooo very needed. My back was a wreck.
5. Baking a pumpkin cake! My grandmother developed this recipe decades ago, and we make it every holiday.
6. Figured out I can hook my computer up to my tv and still reach to get Internet access! I've been watching Netflix and hulu on my tv since!
7. Emma came over on Friday! Lots of fun just chatting, eating an entire large pizza, and watching Jim Henson's "The Storyteller"

Days 51, 52, and 53

Day 51
1. Babysat! Money!
2. Caught a yoga class afterwards. Kudalini yoga is so hard! Got a good burn though.
3. Went home for lunch. Got to see my penny!

Day 52
1. Cleaned a bit.
2. Saw the chiropractor during lunch. I adjust so much better in the middle of the day.
3. Got my table, the last chair for my project, and a china hutch! My uncle helped and we got it all set up before 9:30.

Day 53
1. Got to work on time.
2. Home for lunch. It's just so nice to come lay down on my bed.
3. Ate lunch sitting at my table!
4. Found some roach killing solutions (you die! Die!)
5. Got to put kids down for nap rather than shadow lunch tables today. There are only so many times a person can say "take bites! Use your spoon to scoop and bite!"
6. Thanksgiving is soon! Week from today!

Day 50

1. FIFTY DAYS of proving this is my year. Fifty!
2. Came home for lunch, which is always fun!
3. My aunt sent me some quilts her grandmother made. Lovely pieces of history! She also sent me a ton of wine corks!
4. Got my electricity bill and --I didn't imagine this was possible -- it was LOWER than last month's! $37. That's it! I'm an energy saving fiend!
5. Drove out to look at the table and china hutch. I think I'll be able to make them work! I'll only take one chair though so I can complete my color spectrum!
6. So glad I had a can of beans in the cabinet. Hooray, dinner!
7. Babysitting tomorrow. Hooray money!
8. Mom sent me a groupon! Yay free food!
9. I wore my favorite new vintage skirt to work. Only got a little yogurt on it and got lots of compliments!
10. I'm about to make the smoothie to end all smoothies.
11. I've done some tidying and the apartment looks halfway liveable!
12. Found out I'll be paid $15 an hour to babysit tomorrow!
13. Facebook discussion with my dad about time travel. I'm sure it doesn't need to be said that my dad is the coolest dad in the dading world.

Day 49

1. Penny let me sleep in until 11!
2. Finished my chairs! I just need one more and a table!
3. Absolutely impeccable hair day.
4. Finished Journeyman (why do time travel shows never last?)
5. Even though I shattered my screen my phone still works!
6. Got Penny some more heartworm preventative and registered her for a wellness plan. Unlimited vet visits, all her vaccines and tests, and 10% off procedures for $24 a month. Considering that visit and test alone plus heartworm stuff cost me over $188, I'm saving quite a bit.
7. Thanksgiving is soon! I'll get to see my family!
8. I may have found a table. For $75 they are selling it, four chairs, and a china hutch. I might take the lot and repurpose the extra three chairs. My uncle is going to help me transport.
9. Got a lot of progress done on the baby blanket. I'm already into the second color!
10. Discovered that I made some numerical mistakes. I thought this was day 47!
