Day 11

Started x-mas shopping today and paid the deductible on my car repair ($500) - so I am officially poor. I have however gotten a little side work from some friends. Hopefully I can at least plug up the hole, even if I can't repair it. Being unemployed, as "romantic" and freeing as the idea may be, may be a bit tough on the pocketbook.

1) Skydive
2) Sleep til noon (or at least stay in bed!)
3) Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast
-----Did the other day - it was really yummy. Then I got a stomach ache, which probably explains why people don't eat ice cream for breakfast. So I have marked this one done, and gone back to eating ice cream at night.

-----Need to plan a trip to Denver

Day Three

It was a decent day - although primarily it was a functional day filled with catching up on laundry and house work. That said, I have not been able to do that as of late, so I can feel that the day was a success in that regard. A total change of pace from where I was. I do need to get going on the writing of this book. The concept is good, but I have yet to figure out how to pull it together. Maybe I can get some of that done this weekend.
