< than one month home

update time.

received, my first paycheck from my new job, and am keeping a financial worksheet, yay to new habits. i finally feel i'm getting the swing of my work world duties. as james would say i'm fitting into my many hats at the job. i'm the baby at work, the youngest in the crew by two years at the least, which is just fine by me, i'm happily enjoying my youth. the food at my place of employment is fantastic and i'm sure plenty of people say that about the food at their job, but i can say that honestly. i haven't tried something i don't like. im a huge fan of their soup of the day, every single time i work!

i'm currently working on eliminating carbonated beverages from my diet, then hopefully after i adjust to that i can eliminate all beverages that aren't 100% fruit juice or milk/water. i know i should start building healthier habits one step at a time before i start going to doctor visits when im older and trying to reverse poor choices i make now. also, just found an exercise routine, that fits my lifestyle and is practical for my wants/needs as well as that I have all the equipment to do already here in my home. [my parents have supplied my siblings and i with pretty much any gym equipment anyone could need].

update on my non work related life, my past few weekends with my boyfriend have been nothing short of absolutely enjoyable. i know now that i was absolutely spoiled rotten having had the chance to live with him for the first 3 weeks of our relationship. i do however value the time we get to spend together more than ever before. i'm really happy to say i'm finally financially able to share in the cost of us eating/doing activities. i also don't mind the train commute to and from his place, gives me time to form all the butterflies in my tummy as i attempt to patiently wait to see him again. we spent a lovely valentines weekend mainly sleeping [cuddeling is probably my favorite part of any weekend we are together, maybe with the exception of when he teaches me something new]we also cooked a few yummy chicken meals together, went ice skating [the man can skate backward circles around me, at least i didn't fall {on the ground} or hit anyone], as well as attend winter peace fest [left early on account to not liking the music and now wanting to wait around another hour in terror that our ears would fly off]. btw did i mention his invention of dumbo kisses!!! <3

my little sister and mom have strep throat atm... at least my lil sis had a good birthday at chuck e cheese with my family yesterday. i think she is an amazingly neat 7 year old. she wants to be a hunter for a living. which makes perfect sense, really.

these next few weeks are sure to be full of new routines and plenty of fun plans, i'm excited, and its been under a month and i'm already feeling on track!
