End of Summer...
Happy Labour Day…I love that North America has dedicated a day for those who work….now that I have a job I can officially celebrate Labour Day! I am celebrating this day by working – boo to jobs in hospitality…but at least I have a job – so I will be celebrating this holiday with a smile on my face.
Remember when Labour Day signified the end of summer when you were a kid…the last day of freedom before going back to school…the night before you packed your backpack with new binders, pens and pencils, you laid out your new outfit and hoped to Christ it was cool, your mom packed you a lunch and then you tried to go to sleep but you tossed and turned because you were a little bit sad that summer was over and nervous to be starting a new school year.
As an adult Labour Day is the weekend when you get to sleep in for three days instead of two…It’s the final party weekend of summer – the last hurrah before fall arrives…the traditional last weekend to stop wearing white shoes…the last of the barbeques where you don’t need a sweater at night. Summer may be over but fall is almost here and that means a new wardrobe must be purchased!
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend and is celebrating working hard with a party!
and she's down...
ok, ok…I know, I know…another story involving falling in public…
As we all know diet pepsi makes my world go round….lil bit of an addiction. I usually go through drive through; but yesterday I thought I would mix it up and actually go into Tim Hortons. I made it from the car to curb with no problems…upon stepping onto the curb i missed and went down hard…luckily nothing was broken…just my spirit…thank god diet pepsi heals all.
Here we are...
I’m moving tomorrow morning…the day is almost here…I am up to my ears in bubble wrap, aka b-rap, boxes and tape; not to mention the stuff that was once in a closet that is now in said boxes.
Packing procrastination time is over….however, I promised my friend James that I would write something…so here goes…
Moving is stressful. No matter how much work you do in advance, the act of moving house equals stress. You don’t realize how much stuff you actually own until you box, seal, label and stack.
One thing that I have learned…you might suffer from a slight shopping problem when you can build a fort of boxes filled with shoes, handbags and other accessories…but at least it’s a fort of boxes filled with pretty!
That’s it for me…back to boxes.
three little words...
I miss crocs.
High heals are the work of the devil…they lead to blistered, swollen, sore, pedicure ruined feet. Pretty shoes are for the birds…so is working.
Packing Procrastination...
I’m moving in a week and a half…I’ve known about this move for almost a year…one would think that I would have started to pack – not so much…I’m much more interested in procrastinating…here is a list of activities to avoid packing:
10. Check email.
9. Browse Facebook – looking at other people’s pictures is way more important than packing.
8. Go out for coffee.
7. Nap – avoiding packing takes it all out of you.
6. Write procrastination story on ihadajob.com.
5. Re-watch Mr. and Mrs. Smith…still not good…thought it would be better the second time…clearly it was necessary to make this decision before packing.
4. Call everyone in cell phone phonebook to catch up and bitch about how packing everything is so much work.
3. Check Facebook again…a lot happens on FB in 8 hours.
2. Go out to grab a diet pepsi…I love diet pepsi.
and the number one way to avoid packing….
1. Go shopping…when all else fails, you can always hit the mall!
