I want a dog more than anything!! I cried the other day when I took my friend’s puppy to the park because I want one so much! But I do know that this won’t happen for a while, but as long as I’m always getting closer, that should be some consolation.
So I wrote down my 5 step plan, going backwards:
6. Have a dog
5. Quit my job so I can take care of it
4. Earn enough money to quit my job
3. Buy a house with a garden
2. Start saving money
1. Get a new job
Makes sense, doesn’t it? So I’ve got a new job a couple of weeks ago. Pays a bit more than my last one, so that’s good. Just have to work out the whole saving thing – but that’s a whole new ‘thing’...

Ironically, this goal clashes quite unfortunately with my ‘Become a Morning Person’ objective.
I haven’t been going to bed any earlier, (mainly because there’s always good stuff on TV – the shame!) but I’ve been forcing myself to wake up at 6. The weird thing is, apart from the first couple of days I haven’t felt that much more tired.
But hopefully now that I’ve sorted my mornings out, I’ll be able to work on getting to bed earlier. And being super organised will help, as I won’t have the excuse of pottering around trying to track lost shoes down/find matching earrings etc.
I give it a month.

If anything, it’s got worse. To the point where I dread going home sometimes, because I know there’ll be a pile of clutter/laundry waiting for me to ignore it!!
But I love my appartment, I feel so guilty for not making it look as pretty as it did when I first moved in!
This weekend, I’m putting myself under house arrest, and literally not going out (apart from to take out the trash if my deadbeat boyfriend doesn’t offer).
My home wil be a haven of peace and serenity by the time I’m done with it – and I mean it this time!
