My plan for this weekend was going to a Cactus carnival with my friend on Saturday and working on designs on Sunday, but my plan got cancel.

On Saturday after work I texted my friend to know what time he was coming to pick me. He replied that he was not sure about going to the festival because it was far away, he was still busy and it was late. Then he proposed to come home on Sunday, take care of my cactus and update my computer, and I could help him to design a brochure. It sound good for me.

I cleaned the house, I sewed bed sheets and I chose what things Michael will get for me. At night I was going to design but I didn't. I was cold and tired so I went to bed and fell asleep.

Today I woke up at 11 am, I had coffee and cleaned the kitchen. My friend came around 2 pm and we started to change all my cactus and succulents to new pots, using that substratum 7C that he makes which seems very good one. I mostly looked how he worked and helped with few plants, it was funny to do and I am very very happy with my plants. I'm sure they will grow strong and beautiful!

He gave me this one and 3 cactus

When we finish with gardening, he went for my computer. I had an old Athlon II X2 270 microprocessor which he changed for an Athlon II X4 645 that he didn't use. He also changed my old hard disk for another SATA 500 gb that he didn't use, all for free! Even when this hardware is not the latest technology my computer is now x3 faster than before, it's a win!

He didn't need to install everything again in my new hard disk, he copy all the info with a ghost software so after few minutes waiting my computer was ready to use.
I designed the brochure for him doing a break to eat pizza. Because he didn't like my wireless mouse he gave me a new Lenovo mouse for my computer. He has computer stuff in his car because he works fixing the computers for a bank. I think it was very nice of him to update my computer for me to work faster with designs.

Another thing he brought, which I asked for and I paid it to him, is a tripode for my cellphone, then I can take better photos of my bullet journal and also play magic cards with Michael by videocall :D

You can vary the height and can the holder position.

I didn't work on designs but I had a great weekend :)

I don't feel great lately. On Thursday I couldn't wake up on time so I worked from home. It was not bad though, I helped Martu with her homework. On Friday after work I got coffee with a BIG cornstarch alfajor. The sugar overdose made me sleepy. I had a short nap until my sister and niece came to home for I to do their makeup. When their left I tidy up the house, had a shower then I went to the bed and watched 2 episodes of Money Heist.

Saturday was a nice day. My friend came to pick me at 2 pm. The plan was gong to the Cactus feria but it was cancelled then we decided to go eat somehing. We went to a restaurant very famous for its pancakes. We decided to order sweet pancakes instead salty because it was late for lunch. My friend Pablo ordered a pancake with caramel, cream and almonds. Mine was caramel and chocolate mousse. For drink I ordered Italian capuccino. It was a shock of sugar on my body, I couldn't finish my pancake.

After that we decided to go to Chinatown. I've never been there. We went to many stores, I loved it! My friend is a good partner for this. He already knew he best stores so that's a plus. I bought washi tapes, markers, stickers, unicorn erasers, underwear without stitches, nail file, etc. My friend was like "Nat stop spending money!!!" while I ran here and there choosing things. He also took me to a big supermarket where we bough milk coconut which is delicious and I bough rice pasta and chinese soup.

I didn't see my friend for 5 years so we talked a lot about how our lifes are going. It surprised me that he lives wit his girlfriend (ex gf) but their relationship is over for 2 years. He said that nobody knows and they still living together to split bills and because they are friends. He's not the only man in this situation that I know, and it's hard for me to understand how you can continue sharing a house with a man/woman who you don't love anymore. I'm not spiteful but I can'even be friend with my exs. We also talked about work, I explained to him how muh the company I work from sucks and he said he can make me enter in the company he works. I'll evaluate it, that company is away from home.

We came back home and I let him come him because I trust my friend. We talked a little more and he looked my cactus and magic cards, then at 10 pm he left and I went to the bed and finished to watch Money Heist. I liked this show.

Today I woke up at 1 pm, I got up, drank coffee, I tried to work on designs but I felt bad so I went to the bed again. I laid down but I couldn't fall asleep so at 5.30 pm I got up, I hadanother coffee and i tried to work... failed again. I went to the bed and I draw in my bullet journal.
I really hate how long this take for me to get sick. My body will fights against illnes for weeks making me feel tired, weak, depressed but not any symptom strong enough to treat with medicine. I prefer to get sick in the normal way where you have fever and some other symptoms which make you stay in the bed for a week and after that you feel better, but nope, I'm a figher for everything I guess.

Back to work yesterday after a long weekend because holidays. I'm moody and everything irritates me so I didn't write, I don't want the journal be only a place to bitch. I'm trying to do my best to relax and to take things easy.

At night I'm watching Money heist season 2 while I do some workout with the theraband, bloody brillant serie!. I also try to journaling but I'm behing with May spread. I'm so busy that I don't have so much time for it so I try a simple spread this month. This is how it looks so far:

This weekend I'm hanging out with an old ex coworker, I think this will helps for relaxing. I worked with this guy in my former work, 7 years ago. He's a kind guy and smart ass. I felt very comfortable working with him because he's quiet guy, never trying to get attention or to flirt. I hope he still be like that. We are going to a cactus show so I know my cactus collection will growth this weekend :D

I couldn't write anything about my week, so busy trying to catch up with work and helping my sister with my niece's party. The party is today and I'm stucked at work busy, sleepy, tired. When I get home at 2 pm I have to take a shower, do my hair, my make up, help Martu to get ready, then at 4pm I go to my sister's house to make up my niece. Last two days I did many beauty treatment to her.

I'm dealing with the last details of the online guestbook, not sure yet how I'll take the pictures, if with my iPhone or the tablet. I don't have so much time to do everything, the party starts at 7 pm.

Today is also the birthday of my online friend and I would like to spend some time talking with him, but I can't. Catching up with other journals or replying dm will have to wait. There won't be time either to clean the house this weekend.

There are a lot of things I want to write about, but for now I'm going for a coffee, I'll need many cups today. I hope everyone has a good weekend!

I rarely make friends since I just pay attention to people who I find interesting or people who are not looking for attention, both are difficult for me to find nowaday. I have Facebook, twitter and Instagram accounts where I don't interact with other people although some of them I know in the real life. I also have a couple of friends who I knew from Internet (also a ex boyfriend who is still my friend).
I came to LJ, and to DW later, just to relieve the stress writing about my daily life (and to practice my English writing). I've to admite that I'm very happy about the people and new friends I got here. The journals became my happy virtual place and, lucky for me, I'm going to meet some of us in real life also!
