Here are some bonus gifts I would love:
- A better job!!
- A car detailing
- An iPad
- A house, or at least furnishing I'll manage the town house on my part
- $5000
- this coat on piperlime http://m.piperlime.gap.com/product.html?dn=pp895104002&dv=0&shopid=3&pdn=pd59220
- someone to do my laundry to my specifications for an entire month
- A piano




Happy Day 1....House Keepers

This weekend I just finished reading "the Undomestic Goddess" and saw "The Help" (I recommend both of these!!)

And tonight I got around to cleaning my room and doing laundry. I still have more to do
and vacuuming to accomplish. But I did dust (yes a miracle).

After all of this I am sold on the idea of a housekeeper. :)



To Try Again....100 days of Happiness

Im trying again....for 100 days of happiness....did you know that thanksgiving is 100 days away!!!! Hence a great day to start

(There is the slight chance I cant count)

The Art of Procrastination

The art of procrastination is something I seem to be mastering....

Here is how my week has gone.

I have to give a talk on Sunday...thats important to the story.

At work I cant focus on work....

Instead:
* I think about my talk
* Make plans, goals for my future
* Visit

At home when I sit to work on my talk I:
* I think about how to reorganize my closet
* Write and schedule posts for exciting things to come!
* Play on face book...read blogs...etc

Oh how I love mastering the art of procrastination!!
