Yesterday I got my enhanced ID which allows me to travel (by land and water) from the US to Canada or Mexico. Because I’m in Washington I’m probably going to Canada next. I haven’t even had a proper ID for the last two years. it was nice to get more organized and get things done. I’m excited! I love to travel. I’m thinking road trip :) I’ve also started a savings account that automatically debits $75 a month. Hopefully these baby steps will help me get out more .

How I did it: So I've been picking away at my email for the past two months on a mission to get rid of junk! I've always planned don doing this, but i saw it on here and thought it's about time to start this project. I work on the computer all day so sitting in front of it with another task is just discouraging! I've done bit by bit, 5 minutes here 10 minutes there just deleting stuff and creating folders. Going through every thing in sections hel… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I won an espresso machine at my work, but at the time was in transition. This summer my kitchen was finally put in order but for some reason just never got around to assembling the machine or watching the video that came with it. I was not used to the home machines, but lately I don't want to pay for my lattes when i get out of work either so it was time to learn. In about a week I was able to watch the short video, flip through the manua… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went with a friend to a local pircing parlor. It took me a month to decide whether or not I wanted in on the left, right or middle. It looked good each way but i felt the middle was just sexy the others were cute. So middle it was. I also got it pieced as close to my lip as possible so if i wear a stud you can barely tell it was there, this was i wouldn't have to take it out if i wanted to job hunt. This would be my first 'visable' pier… Read how I did it…

SO after last week and not being able to apck anyhting i made sure to ahve a lunch this week :) I cut up apples and cheese then had pizza roll things and a bunny head shaped egg. When I get more groceries I’ll probably try to apck something more often, but for now once a week is a good goal. I like packing these lunches any way, Bento Culture is so amazing! People can do some cute things with food, try looking for Bento Blogs on Google, I’m really impressed with some things…Now if only MINE looked that good…

Well, I loved packing my bento the first week. I also didn’t feel pressured to cook all the time because it was only once a week. But these past few days i haven’t been able to go grocery shopping. I’ve been buying lunch or packing some things, but not a square meal :( Fail! But I’m going to try again next week until this becomes a habit. Not quite there yet!
