The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Yesterday I had day off :D it was a excellent day. Michael called me to wake me up at 10.30 am, it was nice to wake up to his voice. We were on the phone for 30 minutes then I got up.

The weather was perfect, sunny and 64F+, so I got coffee and I spend a couple of hours sitting next to the balcony, enjoying my cacti and the sun. By 4pm I cleaned the house and I worked on my projects and designs. I got many things done.

After dinner I took care of myself. I did my facial peeling and I exfoliated the skin of my body, it feels soooo soft now! Today I plan to paint my hair, get my manicure done, exercise and have an IPL session. I should buy something to the bath, like mineral salts or bath foam.  

I've so many things to do before going to see Michael on August that I should make a to-do and to-buy list on my bullet journal. I want to look decent so I need to push harder with workout, practise more English, take care of my body and also save money to spend there. That last is not easy lately for me, I keep buying things. The last week I bought a new parfum which I like, it's cheaper than international parfums and it stay long on my skin. I'm really happy with this parfum, it's perfect to use everyday then I can save the good parfums to use for special days. 

Another stuff that I bought is a box for store the stationery things and new markers which I can do fake lettering :D

The plan is to cut sugar and flour, workout 3 times at week and to do the metabolism diet for 1 week. That should be enough to stay on my ideal weight for some months.

Isn't easy to be healthy on autumn/winter. All my favorite fruits and vegetables I can't get, I drink less water and my body is always cold looking for calories to get warm... meh, stupid body. 
However, today I'm using stevia instead sugar on my coffee, and yesterday I did workout. I just need to avoid flour. The scale showed 129 lbs this morning, let's see what happens in few days. 

I need to keep strong and not to get depressed to avoid eating sweets. Keeping myself together won't be easy because right now I deal with a lot of problems that aren't personally my problems but they affect me directly. I think that 80% of the time I deal with the consequences of other people problems....

Today it's bloody cold! 8ºF at morning and right now it's 12ºF. Ok it's not sooooooo cold I know but remember that my heart beats slow then I'm always cold, even on summer.

I got the boots, I'm in love with them . My feet look small with those boots :D 

There are some stuff that Michael wants to get for me: Swell bottle, fitbit, and matching underwear Meundies.

Today I chose the bottle, 25 oz, purple and blue. I really love the color


then Michael made me choose the Fitbit, and I liked this one


 

We will wait until he loses more weight to look for underwear. This week he lost 11 pounds and I'm really happy that finally he started to care himself. He's also looking for new job and already had some interviews. He's doing courses to develope apps, working slowly to leave his comfort zone... it's amazing, I feel proud of him. All that he needed was someone who support him, who trust him. I love to see how people growth, how they become better, how they can do amazing things with their lifes.

Time for designing and drinking coffee before my fingers freeze!

On Wednesday I went to the shoes store. I looked for a nice pair of boots for weeks but there was nothing that I liked. Finally I found one and I decided to buy them. Genuine leather, rounded point, 10cm heels with platform, perfect to walk without feel pain. I tried them on and they were sooooo comfortable that it took me only 2 minutes to decided to buy them. When I was going to pay for it, the girl tell me its price and it was not the price I saw in the showcase. I told her about it and we both walked to the front of the showcase and she saw the price. Although I was right, she said they did a mistake when they put the shoes in the showcase. It was a difference of usd 40 including the discount for paying with cash, and that piss me off, I think they do it on purpose but even when I loved those boots I was not going to pay the other price.

When I got home I looked the website of the official store and I found they sell the shoes cheaper than the retailers, free shipping, and they were giving discount because "hot sale", bingo! I saved 24 usd and I paid with credit card (3 payments 0% interes rate) , I got free shipping and today, 2 days after, they sent my boots to my work adress. I was not there though so my coworker got the box for me. 

Michael wants we go on vacation so we are planning it. Probably tomorrow I'll buy the ticket to get discount because the hot sale. We are going to Orlando in August. We want to go closer to Clearwater, Tampa but we couldn't get any resort for that month in that area so I guess we will book again an apartment in Vacation Village at Parkway, Kissimmee. I love that resort very much so I don't mind, it's 2 hours away from the beach though. We will stay there more days than usual :)

I got moody early while we were deciding the date to go on vacation, it always happens to me because I get stressed looking the price of the tickets which can change +-400 usd from one day to other. Dollar keeps raising its price. On friday it was $23,10 and today it cost $25,50. I'm lucky that I'm hard worker and good for saving.

Some situations at work are so pathetic that I don't know if to laugh or to cry. Today I was fine, neutral mood, working at my office when Mr. Enginner sales manager came to work there. He brought his laptop and he settled on the desk of my coworker who this week is doing a services in other province. A while after sales manager was there I lost internet connection. Oh well... I waited few minutes but still no internet. I went downstair and asked to other girl if she had internet, she had.

It was 2.30 pm. I went back to my office and I filed some papers. Someone called to sales manager and I heard that he said to the other person that his cellphone was low battery, and also his laptop. In that moment I knew why I lost internet. When sales manager went downstair for few minutes, I took a look at his laptop. The fucking idiot unplugged something without asking what it was to plug his laptop. The thing that he unppluged was the router for my office...

I decided not to say anything and wait, having almost 4 free hours was not bad! In some point he asked me to do a quote because he was leaving to do something outside. I told him "I don't have internet yet" then he replied "it was not me!" like saying that he didn't touch anything that could make me lost connection. Really you didn't, fucking moron? I smiled and I said "well, if I get connection again i'll do that quote" then he left leaving his laptop there.

If tomorrow when I get work the router is still unppluged I wont plug it. I'll do nothing (and there will be no one who does quotes) until they call the company for computer maintenance and when the technician comes to check my computer and he realizes the router is unppluged then I'll say "Holy crap... it was the sales manager who used that desk yesterday, now I see where he plugged his laptop!".

I'm in love with the washi tapes I got yesterday from AliExpress. My order took 4 weeks to arrived, I thought it was going to take longer. The package arrived directly to my address, if I am lucky I'll get the other soon.

I love the colors of the tapes, and they are very soft. I think the quality is good but since I don't have so many tapes to compare I can't say. The brand is "Twilight". I'm very happy with my order :)
