Not into it today...

So I had a little trouble sleeping last night... Callie insists on attention when she realizes I am awake. I'm not sure what has gotten into her lately but she insists on laying on my neck, right on my face... its a bit out of character but not. She can be demanding but she usually behaves herself a little more. Jorge thought it was because she was hungry so I got up at one point for a drink of water and when she's hungry she'll chase you into the kitchen if you hint going that way... but not so. she didn't even move from her spot on the bed.

Then this morning I didn't want to get up... I wasn't necessarily tired. I honestly just wanted to lay there. To just exist and nothing more. Laying there, pet the cat (Who sleeps across the bed at this point that Jorge is not in bed any more.) Jorge is getting ready to go, shower, dressing... doesn't tell me what he's going to do. Maybe he thought I was still sleeping, I do not know. I was bothered but not angry or annoyed. I got up finally, he told me where he was going and such, and now here I am... sitting, watching tv. I should go out and buy a cheap shower curtain. I'm going to cover the bed in the guest room with the litter box because Callie has thought its her place to poop lately and I'm sick of washing the bedsheets and making the bed for something no one has or will sleep in for months.

We have a little tree, I didn't feel like asking him to go with me and hassle with a real tree again this year. No one is coming over to our house as far as I know. So I haven't done much... I like our little tree. I've wrapped the gifts here so far and Jorge wrapped mine. Which is sweet...

I'll look into something to do for us, take a weekend trip or something while we're both off work. I'd love to go to the Keyes or something but I do not know if it is something we should spend money on right now. We'll see. I want to get ahead, start paying things off and then saving to do things like that. Instead of spending and then having to pay it off. Hopefully it works and isn't all just talk.

Working from home...

So that's what I've been doing for the most part, working from home. Its not all its cracked up to be I think. Its a little harder for me to be motivated to focus at times. I get too comfortable and then sleepy and have to get up off the couch, away from my laptop for a little bit so I can focus better. I'm staring at the times interpreters have given me and the times student have classes, wishing that they would match up. They do eventually. Just have to figure out the semantics and such.

Holidays are looking to be a bit dull I think. We'll have dinner with Jorge's dad on Christmas eve probably. Opening gifts whenever, drinks with friends perhaps. Its a little strange to me since I'm so used to big todos during the holidays. Christmas Eve with dad's side, Christmas Day with mom's side and often an extended family party on my dad's sometime around or after New Years... then whatever else friends nearby wanted to plan for. this is evidently enough trouble for us though. Christmas gifts have been gotten for the most part but not sent. Tsk, tsk, I know... but then at least family getting together will have a few days and then, surprise, more gifts! That sounds nice, right? Like Christmas all over again somewhat.

After this I am getting into budget making mode and putting my foot down about sticking to it! There are two of us, it should not be too hard to control. Right? We shall see... Well, that's it for my break. Back to staring at schedules...

Still unmotivated...

So, not a whole lot going on. The semester is over. I took my two finals, I got high B's in both classes. I am still waiting for a hold to be lifted on my account to register for next semester. I suspect I will not have much to choose from for classes but it should be fine.

I just do not feel like doing much of anything... I think we should maybe go out more. Just get drinks, hang out or something... But I'm not exactly the going out type and neither is Jorge. We need nudging. But I guess if I take the initiative we can have some fun together, reconnect again.

This coming semester I think I will dance twice a week. I have my regular class and the university has a practice session on Friday afternoons too. I also found a place that offers horseback riding lessons in the area for a decent price. I would really enjoy that. I want to start exercising 3 times a week as well.... I know I have set these kinds of goals in the past and they can be quite short lived. But then again I'm not going to completely forget about them... perhaps one of these times something will stick...
