Things that Fly!

To do

So tomorrow is my first (or second?) day off from my new job at Boston Pizza. At first I was a bit nervous about it, but I've got the hang of it now, and I'm in a pretty successful groove. Tips get better everyday, which must mean I'm doing a better job! And the people are so friendly, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Anyways I have a lot of stuff to get done tomorrow. Last week I successfully implemented recycling. It's something I'll have to stay on top of, mainly because I'm not great at this recycling bit myself and I'm supposed to be leading my mom and sister. If this works out well I'm going to start a small compost worm bin in the basement to eat food scraps.

Recycling was easy to start, I just needed another bin, but when it comes to trying to reduce energy consumption in my house I've encountered strong resistance. For some reason my mom loves to turn the TV on and then walk out of the house to go gardening or to work. She says she leaves it on for the animals to watch! Frustration! I know that it will come with time though-- most people are opposed to change. I also managed to install a computerized thermostat that will be a real energy saver in the winter.

Tomorrow I'm going to clean out the refrigerator and organize the food a little better. Today I found a container of yogurt 2 months old. My mom adamantly refused that there could possibly be any other bad food in there but I know that food goes unchecked in there a lot. It will give me a chance to see what we actually eat. I've been cooking more lately and I'm going to try cooking a couple meals a week for the family. I'm trying to switch our family over to more healthy food. Not that we eat badly, I would just like us to be eating healthier food with a greater organic base.

Besides that I need to get my sister a birthday present. She'll be turning 20 august 22nd. There's about a two week period where we're both 20 and she loves to rub it in. I also need to work out. Drop off and pick up some books from the library and go grocery shopping for some healthy food to put in the hopefully cleaned fridge. Finally I need to iron my uniform. Finish university. Find a beautiful women to lustfully fall in love with. Travel a bit more. A lot more. Buy a condo in Thailand with a view of the sea and sunset. Oh and change the world....So it might not all get done tomorrow, but thinking big never hurt.
