Got too busy last week

Sorry, I know last time I posted I said I would be back tomorrow but that just didn't happen! I had a busy week last week and didn't get a chance to post. I was even busy during the day at work. And if know me IRL then you know I am not usually busy for a full day at work!! Yes, I need to get a new job!!

Right now, I am not happy in my job. I am not treated very well by the people I work with. It is a very hard and stressful thing to deal with when you don't enjoy your job. Its hard to get up in the mornings. So I have talked to my fiance about this and I am going to do some career testing and then try to find a new job! So far every test I have taken is telling me I should be doing anything besides what I am doing now! No wonder, I am unhappy!!!

The one thing that is hard right now is being in a recession. Its not really the time to quit your job and move to another one. I am working in the Oil industry right now and it has been hit pretty hard. I think almost everyday we hear of another company that has been laying off people. So far this company has done it three times and I have made it through each one. I think that part of that was cuz I secretly hoped I would be laid off. I think someone is watching over me cuz I haven't lost my job yet. So I keep forcing myself out of bed and coming to work! We do have a house and wedding to pay for in the near future! And I really cannot complain about the money I make at this job! This company does pay extremely well!

This past weekend my fiance and I went out to my parents cabin. We were out there with my parents and their two dogs and our 6 month old puppy! Our puppy Jackson is way too playful for my parents dogs who are both 13 years old. Its funny but sometimes my parents dogs get a bit scared!! We had a good time out there this weekend and managed to avoid the snow that Calgary apparently got! We didn't have great weather but it was sunny and no rain or snow. This week Calgary is getting nicer weather. And this weekend when I can't go to the lake its supposed to be 27 degrees on Saturday! Looks like Jackson and I will have to go to the dog park so he can take a dip in the river!

Other things that are happening are that we are getting my car ready to either give back to the dealership or have someone take over my lease. We have taken it in to get the brakes done which was expensive. $500 later we got my car back! Tuesday wasn't as bad, it only cost $50 to get the illegal tint taken off my windows. Yes I was the one who got it put on!! It looked really cool though! Today my car is in to get an estimate on damage to my front and back bumper. I know how the damage to my front bumper happened, I bumped someone when coming up to a stop sign. But the back bumper damage I just noticed when I washed my car last week. So annoying. its a shame when people do hit and runs. Oh well, not much I can do about it since the car has to be taken back in good condition! Plus with KARMA, I would not sell/transfer/give a car to someone that hadn't been fixed. I just couldn't do it!

Tonight FH(future husband) and I are going to be going through stuff in our basement and deciding what we can sell on kijiji. We moved a bunch of stuff from our condo into our house that we don't need so we may as well make some money back on it all! We also have to make a list of things that are wrong with our house so we can have our three month walk through! I can't believe we have been living in our house for 3 months. I sure don't miss that condo at all!! It was way too small for the two of us and it didn't allow me to have a dog.

This weekend I am going to be cleaning for my future in laws to come visit on the the 19th and organizing our basement and our pantry. These last two are things that have needed to be done for a long time but I just haven't gotten around to it. FH is going golfing this weekend so I will have lots of time to get these done but I am also going to make sure I take some time for myself and get out to enjoy the sunshine!!!

Well gotta get back to work! Hope everyone enjoys their day!
