It's been so busy here... busy in the sense of the space (lack-of, while my mom starts finding more things to send to the P.I.) and commotion and activities.
What the... I see the box of yogurt we bought in the balcony. No fridge space? Must be that cold outside. Sorry.. spaced out for a minute.
Anyway, my mom's bday is coming up, sister and her kids are moving across my apt. and I still have to be granted some type of vacation (not just a single day off) to spend time w/ my parents. I've been feeling tired lately and I need to work out. I have the motivation - I recently saw an old pic of my back (yes, my back) a few years ago and it was toned and had all the cuts in the right places. So I thought to myself "I want it back!". I just don't have the energy or time to get it back. Besides, I think I'm getting "soft" in places where I remember muscle being clearly the winner.. so that's a red flag for squats.
Lent sacrifice = feeling like a lost child trying to dedicate myself to a Lenten sacrifice. I think I've changed it every time I stop to think about it - no cursing, no fries, no pessimism, no anger. Now, ask me how I'm doing: I've cursed like a sailor already (Dad also heard me - hey, I get it from him), I've binged on fries, and I've already lashed out. I'm a bad Catholic.
I'm thinking: How do I mentally prepare myself for Monday? Monday is the beginning of the work week.
So my sister is suuuuper smart about home loans. Ayo!! Anyone looking to buy out there and don't have a bank yet to support your home loan.... my sister is your woman! She's goooood at what she does! Trust!
I told her my 5-year plan and apparently she did the calculations, and it involves a $3000 a month payment... what the dipset!?!? What I thought to myself at that moment: "Damn! that means I have to keep working hard". I wanted to get away w/ my 5-year plan without having to work. What am I, special? Apparently not. Boo.
I had a two-day training at my job: "Facilitation Skills for Business Analysts". It was very interesting ("do we lead, or do we follow"..... "write your answers down, without using words" - now that's a challenge for BAs for those who know what we do). It made me value my career a lot more. Besides, the more experience you get, the more you get paid. I read a senior BA in most companies get paid in the 6-digits. Really?! That's definitely an upside. Downside: it requires me to step out of my comfort zone. Shiet. I know what I gotta do, but I don't wanna! (3-yr old moment right there) Maybe that's why I'm so Bleh lately.
Man, I wrote a lot today.. hey, its a lazy Sunday and I just woke up from a nap!
