09:11 pm - Saturday Wow, It's been awhile. Not much going on or lots depending on your point of view. Mom and Dad came out for christmas. It was nice. I've never had family here for the holiday. Usually, I go to them or cousins come out and hang with them. Normally I hang with C and K or sleep all day. Maybe take in a movie. Now it's a new year and my life is already changing. Mom and I have to work on losing weight, she got a treadmill for her birthday. So we are doing an hour a day on the treadmill and I am still doing karate but I now have the time to go monday and wednesday, rather than just saturday. I unfortunately have had to dump a friend, I just didn't deserve to be treated badly. I won't go into it, as it is done and probably over with. At the very least if he wants to keep the friendship going, he needs to talk to me and not text me. It should actually be interesting as he takes the same karate classes. I am not going to stop going just because he is there too. Work is going well. My thesis is not, although it is moving forward, just really slow. Current Location: home Current Mood: quiet

10:30 am - Tuesday The fires are still going strong. There are a couple of areas along the I5, turns out some idiot threw a lit cigarette out of their car. What the! I just don't get it, do they think it will stop burning when it hits the ground? They aren't even biodegradable. Heck, I've even seem someone roll a window down at a stop light and toss their trash out. I swear there are idiots out there and they would be the first to say they didn't do it even with a picture of them doing it. I am not working today, listening to the radio. All of Ramona has been evacuated. East Chula Vista has been evacuated. Del Mar is beginning to be evacuated. People are loosing everything. The fire is so hot that homes are going down within hours. These areas have ranches, so horses and other large animals are affected. That's hard as there are not many places they can be boarded. I need to do something, going for a walk. The air quality is ok here, although may need a mask later tonight. Current Mood: anxious

06:18 pm - Monday Whoa the fires are going strong here, there are 8 of them. I went to work but they sent anyone home that needed to be home and the rest of us stayed until noon. I went to the bank, bought lots of water and put gas in that car. Just in case I need to leave. I doubt it. If the fires get this close to the coast, there is no where else to go but into the water. I got tired of the news, everything is about the fire. I ended up catching up on DVR stuff. I just didn't want to be out, one less car on the roads. Tomorrow at work will be chaos. We have 3 people who will not be coming in as they have been evacuated. It may be a short day again as the air quality is bad and it is hard on the building A/C to filter so they will shut that part down and we can't work like that. I hope people got out and I hope they are safe. Current Mood: worried

07:01 pm - Saturday It has been a long week. I think I lost weight because I forgot to eat. Probably not as I think that with what I did eat, I probably just put my body into starvation mode. Oh well, another week starts tomorrow and it better be better.

07:50 pm - Sunday It's been awhile but I've been busy. Mostly working, my shift hours changed so I am getting used to them. Talked to mom and she had a great birthday. N took a day off and spent it with mom. That is a big deal for N, she has a lot going on every day and to rearrange her schedule was probably difficult. Mom loved that day, I think it was one of her best birthdays. Mom also spent some time with J and she had fun with them. Dad enjoyed the time with all the kids, he even got to hold his great-grand child. gotta go. Current Mood: calm

11:19 pm - Sunday night It's been a long week. I had to work both jobs on Saturday. and my usual work on Sunday. I did go shopping, found a couple of tops that I liked and for decent prices considering we were downtown. Cleaned the kitchen and did laundry, I know I was such an interesting person to be around. Oh well. Current Mood: sleepy

08:42 pm - Wednesday It's been a long week. I did a ten hour shift yesterday and I am exhausted. Which means I will be in bed early. I did my karate class on monday, it was so much fun. I should be there right now, but I just didn't have any oomph. I still haven't eaten dinner but I am not very hungry. I think I am just tired. I do have to think of a halloween costume, something to do with food marketing people. Like dr. pepper, the peanut guy, mr. clean, etc. Crap, I just realized that I forgot to do laundry. Oh well.

09:57 pm - Sunday Whew, what a week. I got thru my karate class on Wednesday. I did not think I would but I did. No excuses about being afraid that I would poop out. On Saturday, I did the MS walk although, I worked rather than did the actual walk. It was fun, although the supplied breakfast for the workers wasn't that great. After words, I went shopping for a sports bra, Karate is intensive and one I currently have doesn't quite do the job. Wnet to Nordstrom's, Lane Bryant and Macy's. Guess where I found one? Nike! I did not think that they would have one in my size, they even had some nice stretchy capris. So I splurged a little, but it was nice to be just like any other person who exercises. Then, I went for my leg waxing and then went to Old Town to hang out with my friend CG. We found a new tea shop and a really nice lingerie shop that has personal shopping. Now, I have a really nice bra that makes me feel like a woman, vava voom! I am going to take mom when she comes for a visit. Anyway, it's time to get ready for tomorrow. Have a good night!

05:13 pm - Saturday Well, I found some work out clothes. I never thought it would be so difficult. I know I am not skinny but seriously, wouldn't you think that workout clothing companies would carry larger sizes? No wonder larger people don't exercise. There is nothing to wear and if you find something it is seriously obnoxious and tasteless. Yeesh, just because you are large doesn't mean you don't want have fashion sense. I mean really looking like large orange velour pumpkin is not fun in a gym. So guess where I found them? Not Lane Bryant (which isn't my favorite place to shop), not Sports Chalet (didn't expect to find them but worth a try), nor Target (which used to have something), nope, I found them at Old Navy. However, I did buy the 'dry' shirts at Target in the men's department. The only problem I am having is finding shorts. I talked to my sister and she wears her husbands workout shorts and his shirts. She doesn't like the women's styles as they are very short shorts and they make her uncomfortable, the shirts tend to be tight. If they make her uncomfortable and she is in shape, what do you think they would do to me? No wonder they don't make them in my size, but someone has to have some. I will try wally world but I think it is too close to cold weather to get anything but sweats. That's ok as I will need them but it is still hot here in SD and I suspect it will be until november or december. I will have to go to the internet for some summer workout clothes. Off I go to the internet.

11:33 pm - Friday I am going to do some serious juggling with my saturday morning commitments. I am hoping I can find someone who would like to walk on Sunday mornings. Otherwise, I will not be able to be part of the group walks. Today was busy, I didn't seem to be able to work on anything on my todo list. So I get to work on saturday. I just can't work late during the week. I am so tired. Gotta hit the sack.
