Went to the bank, cashed my check, got my hair cut super cute (assymmetrical A line sort of deal, with layers on the long side, and the short side goes down to the bottom of my earlobe. Long side goes down past my chin. Sounds crazy, but it looks totally normal I swear), went grocery shopping (but only bought 4 items of food (my appetite has been awful lately, but frankly that's fine with me because I have another 70 lbs to lose.

Did my statistics homework over the phone with my brother (who works at NASA)'s help. Even he couldn't figure some of them out. It's tough stuff. Stuff we haven't been taught yet, and got a B on the assignment instead of a D like I was going to get if he didn't help.

Emptied out two drawers of my little plastic dresser and moved my clean folded laundry into the drawers (this is a new concept for me, I'm a clothes on a floor or in the hamper kind of person).

Cleaned my room a little bit.

I hated statistics.... I feel your pain.

I am currently on my way to class for an exam. I have decided to get the credits that I can easily get and transfer them to my new study.

I am writing this in the morning, because that will probably be the only positive thing for today.

That's such a cute movie. I wish it was on netflix (or is it?).

Went outside with my daughter and we blew bubbles. Went back inside and watched music videos and danced for two hours and now I'm feeling pretty good. I am DETERMINED to become the only person in the entire world NOT to gain weight while on seroquel!

Made my room go from this:

Positive things that I've done today #2

To this:

Positive things that I've done today #2

All in one session. I know it's not much. But at least I have somewhat of a floor now, and I even vacuumed for the first time in about 2 years! Just need to take out the massive loads of trash and organize the shelves. (I organized the top shelf today, but there are 5 shelves and they get worse as you go down). Admittedly these pictures are from different perspectives and don't show the progress all that well, but they were taken on different days.

PS: I hope the images show up. I couldn't get normal URLs

Got myself prettied up today for the first time in a long while & did some errands. Also folded & put away a load of clothes I had forgotten were in the dryer.

Had a work friend come over to visit. We are just getting to know each other and seem to get on very well. Hopefully I now have a new friend, which is awesome as I am am low in the friend department.
