Increase in pay

Guest post of the week by Brittany Booker

Although it was an option, I never really considered working from home. I like going in to the office, seeing my co-workers and interacting with them. When our office started running out of space, my boss asked if I could use my satelliteinternetbroadband.com to work from home a couple of days a week to free up some space. Always one to be agreeable, I said I would and now wonder why I was so hesitant! I can get so much more done in a day working from home that’s it a surprise to me that more businesses don’t let their employees work from home. Plus the savings are huge! gas has gotten so expensive and I’ve gone from filing up once a week to once every three weeks. In addition, I’m much less likely to eat out. I used to take my lunch a couple of days a week; now I just eat at home every day. With all the money I’m saving it’s like giving myself a raise!

furniture

Lately I’ve been cleaning and (for the umpteenth time!) rearranging my bedroom/office. It’s just so challenging to squeeze so much functionality into such a small space. With my birthday in the near future, I’m thinking about ordering some new bedroom furniture los angeles to replace some of my current furniture. Though part of me hates to get rid of my current and perfectly good furniture, I have to have every inch of that room filled at 100% functionality!!

birthday

My birthday is coming up in another four or five weeks- hard to believe I’m getting so OLD! I still haven’t decided how I want to celebrate. I will probably just get dinner at my favorite restaurant. I know my parents are hoping for me to come up with great birthday ideas daughter, but I’ve just become so much simpler as I’ve gotten older. I really have everything I need and everything I want!

watches

I used to be nearly attached to my watch. All through my teenage years, especially, I wore my watch all the time so that I could always be aware of the time left in a particular class. But, with the advent of cell phones (and with me staying at home more often), I really don’t wear my watch very much anymore. I still have a very simple watch (nothing fancy like bertucci watches), but I really only wear it when I’m running. And even then I don’t wear it EVERY time I run!

tanning

Though I tend to have a runner's tan, I actually work hard to avoid tanning as much as possible. I have a family history of skin cancer, but I have no desire to join that statistic. A handful of times in my life, I've given myself a spraytan, but in my opinion that's a lot of effort for something I really don't value anyway.

unproductivity

What a frustratingly unproductive week. Day after day this week, I've sat down at my computer with a goal of writing something- a blog post, a freeform writing assignment, something!! And day after day, I'm coming up with nothing. :P Tonight I'm researching what is progene. Tomorrow... well hopefully next week will go better.

Ironically, though work has been so slow this week, I have been spot-on with my training plan. Can't win 'em all, I guess.
