Insane Random Ramblings

But no I didn’t, not at all. There was a “game” yesterday. The Steelers played like crap. The whole light fiasco was a hoot. I think it put a chink in the players game mojo because it messed up their rhythm. No excuses because the 49ers still executed and won decisively. Could I have saved my time and watched something else, you betcha.

I was off work because I had 2 vacation days to burn. I didn’t do anything yesterday but I didn’t feel like cooking so I went out and bought lunch. It was a opportunity to save a couple of bucks but I didn’t take it. Whoops!

I need to start planning my menu for next week now. The holiday is Sunday so stores will be crazy crowded on Saturday so I’m definitely not going out that day.  Monday the 26th is a federal holiday and my last vacation day is Tuesday the 27th. I am not going out to eat all of those days. I already have a holiday menu now I just need something for those random days off. Luckily I also have my New Years kielbasa on deck, I just need sauerkraut and whatever else I decide to have that day.

I’ll be a busy bee over the next couple of days.

I am so tired right now. I’ve been working a ton of overtime lately to try and save money to buy a house next year as well as pay down debt before I buy the house. It is really starting to take it’s toll on my body. I feel really run down and drained right now.

That’s one of the major reasons that I decided to save all of my vacation days until the end of the year. That way I can have some time to myself during the busy and stressful holiday season.

As for tomorrow, I plan on just lying around, doing nothing and getting as much rest as possible.

I have so much that I’m trying to do with very little income to support it. So I’m basically working miracles with my paycheck. Then I thought the program I wanted to use for a mortgage was gone but once I really did my research I saw that it’s still around. Add to that the fact that I need to pay some debt down over and above my regular payments. I have no idea where that money is coming from.

Next week is my vacation and I can’t wait. I’m not going to think about any of this stuff while I’m off. I’m just going to sit around, watch tv and eat junk food for a week. I’ll probably get some dead sea bath salt and relax in the tub with a couple of soothing baths to melt the stress away. I also plan on unplugging the phone so I don’t have to deal with any annoyances.

I can not wait for this week to be over.

Yesterday I was extremely tired. I got to work and felt ok but by the time I had been there for an hour or so, I was ready to leave. I didn’t have to stay since it was overtime but I didn’t want to waste my time and money since I had already payed for parking and I had taken the time to get up and get ready for work. I was supposed to work a whole day but I ended up leaving a little after 2pm.

I was supposed to go shopping but I wound up cutting that trip short. I did get my lunch food but I didn’t get the plexiglass for my window or the cutting tools I need to install my air conditioner. I plan on just chilling today but I will probably go out early next week and get the rest of the stuff that I need.

Today I just need a day to myself.

Today is one of those holidays that doesn’t really feel like a holiday. It’s President’s Day so there is no mail or trash pickup and banks are closed but almost everything else is operating like normal. So I’m just laying low in the house watching tv. I wish I had a Amish fireplace to curl up in front of with a glass of cocoa cause it’s pretty cold outside. I’ll just wrap up in a blanket like I usually do.

I’m just going to try and enjoy the rest of my day.

Holidays are great. I love having 3 days off to do nothing but loaf around the house and watch tv all day. Unfortunately it seems to go so fast. I can’t believe I only have 3 hours until I have to get ready for work again.

At least I still have a football game and the rest of the baseball game to watch tonight. I don’t have to worry about hearing about my friends disability appeal or her medical issues. At least not until tomorrow anyway. I plan on enjoying the rest of the night by kicking back and putting my feet up and watching tv until I fall asleep.

I’ve had a very relaxing 3 days off. Unfortunately it’s now time to go back to work. My job is stressing me out because I really don’t like it. There aren’t a lot of jobs available right now either. When you do see a job that you’re interested in, you have a huge number of people that you’re competing with. Hopefully I’ll find something new soon.

At least this is a short week.

Man I thought today would never get here. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks at work and I really need the time off. I think it’s because of the fact that I only have 2 weeks worth of vacation now. That’s not really a lot of down time to relax.

Today was also the first day of my vacation. I don’t have anything to do because I don’t have a lot of money. I don’t mind having the extra days to just chill around the house though.

Hopefully my neighbors will cooperate and it will be a nice quiet week.

I thought that maybe since it’s going to be nice this weekend that I might check out a baseball game. Well the joke is on me since the Pirates are on their west coast swing. So unless I plan on flying to San Diego, I won’t be seeing any baseball. I could see what’s up with another close team, like Cleveland, but I know I won’t want to drive.

I do want to find something to do though. Maybe I’ll be like my neighbors and pull some patio furniture or lawn chairs outside and just watch everybody go by. As long as I’m off work, I really don’t care what I do.

It’s pretty crazy. For the past several months I’ve been bogged down with school and work. My last class was the week that just passed. Now I don’t have anything to do. I do have some writing goals that I want to start on but right now I can’t get into any kind of groove. All I’ve been doing for the past several days is watching tv. I’ve seen so many commercials for mesothelioma that I can recite them by heart. It’s just too bad that the only thing on television right now is reruns. I’m ready to watch just about anything.

At least next week I’ll be back in my groove with writing. I plan on focusing on that for the next few months and see how it goes.
