Pretty good movie. Johnny Depp is brilliant and handsome as always.

Today I’m thankful for:

• A reeeeeally good stretch! I did a Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend several times today and it felt terrific. I heard it was good for loosening up in order to sit lotus more easily. I walk quite a bit so my hips and hamstrings are very very tight and this felt really good for them.
• A glass of red wine after dinner sitting relaxing in front of a movie.
• The arrival of my new book from Play. I won’t get to start on it for a while but I was starting to wonder if it’d ever arrive!
• A scrummy healthy dinner made by my own fair hand! I was going to order in but somehow I didn’t give in to that idea.
• A lovely message from a friend. It’s so good to feel connected.

The problem with working from home is that there are too many temptations around. I’ve been watching DVDs when I should be writing something up for a colleague. I’ve put it off for weeks, in fact.

Perhaps I should just give up the notion that I’m going to be anything more than a teacher? I’m good at that, and I don’t usually put it off.

I’m on my way with this goal having deposited a total of £320 into my ISA since the beginning of the new tax year. Once I’ve paid off my credit card I’ll be able to put more of an effort into this goal.

Olorunto Busayo of Nigeria for her newstand and Francis Thompson Ileka of Kenya for his metal fabrication business.

The first two discs of Season 4 arrived earlier this week from lovefilm and although I haven’t started watching it yet, I’m looking forward to seeing the final season. Hopefully it’ll be good as the others.

Just got back from the 2nd round interview/offer.

No I don’t have to worry about unemployment running out… of course I’ll still live like I’m broke to make progress. And yes I’m very grateful since I know it’s so hard out there for people right now. I will still be keeping my 2nd job for the weekend as I pay down these debts!

(Oh and while I’m here, as I said I’d do I paid 1 off 2 little nagging doctor bills as well as changed my savings account to 2.75% APY at smartypig.com – so I’m pretty much back on track with mom being next to repay)

regualr listener to metallica, Korn, Slipknot etc now, yay me!

I finally realized that a problem in one room is the solution to a problem in another room. I have boxes of old photos and memorabilia in my office. I have two lovely pieces of furniture I enjoy in my bedroom. They both have lots of storage space, but because of where they are placed, are a little inconvenient to access. I suddenly realized that I could store photos and memorabilia in these two pieces! Now there’s a reason to sort through the boxes of stuff, because there is somewhere to put the stuff I sort out!
I need to measure the shelves in one piece so I can buy photo boxes. It was originally a shelf unit for exactly that purpose, so it should be easy!

Wow. It’s amazing how long it takes me to see simple solutions that are staring me right in the face.

so far i have 6 out of 9 days I have gotten up early. lets make it 8 out of a possible 11 to complete my goal. i must not go back to sleep either after i get up becos sometimes i get back into bed!

this goal on several people’s list and I also decided adopt it as I’ve been spending far too much time in front of screens lately and this will be an easy and enjoyable alternative to pass the time.

gas guzzling, rolly piece of garbage it was!!

Since I work at home, organizing my home is organizing my workspace. The less clutter on the surfaces, the less “things to do” staring me in the face, the better I can concentrate on doing the most important things.
Today I found a solution to the million tiny pieces of jewelry I have and treasure. I saw a picture on a website of something the homeowner had hand-made. It’s a long ribbon with small hand-crocheted hearts spaced on the length of the ribbon every 4 to 6 inches. She had it hung vertically, but it would work just as well tied up horizontally. It’s just the thing. I like embroidery and crotcheting, and have time to do it when I’m in meetings. I can do make these quickly and begin putting favorite pieces up where they’re available and decorative.
This also spurs the thought - why does it take me so long to realize this kind of thing? - that I can sift out the jewelry I plan to sell on Ebay and put it up on the shelf I reserved for that purpose. Duh!
Finally a solution that will clear the jewelry out of several drawers and the tops of both of my dressers. Seems silly, but if you haven’t a solution, that’s what happens.
