Saying Goodbye 2021

As we are in the last few minutes of 2021, I want to encourage you all not to hold on to this year's negatively while walking in to 2022.

This is a lesson that is easier said than done but I know that you can do it.

Car Key: 400

Car Maintenace: 100

Cash stuffing update: December 2021 and January to March Goals

I am currently on my second time around with this. The beach savings was successful and so this past five paychecks have been saving for a few items.

Christmas and Black Friday: This one had a big chance of savings so that way I could finished my Christmas shopping on Black Friday. I did manage to finish most of my Christmas shopping on Black Friday since I only had my mom left. I only had four paychecks to save enough money for this.

Birthday and Birthday Casino: This one had five paychecks to save for my birthday and the Casino since I knew that I did not want to take out any money out of my account the day that we go.

Bath and body works: This one also had five paychecks to save for this. We did not end up going since we ended up with snow.

Car Maintance: We ended up saving what we need for this one.

2021 year recap

This year has been a mixed year for me and my family. 

We didn't have that many bad moments. 

But we didn't have many good moments earlier. It comes with someone having bi-polar and not being medicine for it. 

New Years Eve

 Today marks the final day of 2021. I can't believe that it's already to say goodbye to 2021. 

Day in the life: December 25, 2021

 Note: I decided to not post this yesterday because it was my birthday but today's fair game. I don't want to carry this post into the new year.

This morning, we woke up to a lot more snow, so my grandma decided to not come up for Christmas.

Noon came around and my dad's mom still had not check in to say if she was coming or not. Long story short, she did not come and my dad was in a bad mood.

We opened Christmas presents and then watched movies as the snow kept falling.

First day as a 32 year old

 Today's my birthday and that means that I am officially 32 years old.

You might notice that the blog title has change to Life as a 32 year old. 

Birthday post

 Today marks my birthday.

2022 planner

I had been looking for a new planner for 2022. I did not like the planners that they had in stores for the Happy Planner.

So I decided to go with the EC planner for 2022. 

Day in the life: December 24, 2021

 This morning was a very early wake up call because we had so much to do before family gets here tomorrow. We knew that my aunt and my uncle were not coming down for Christmas because of what happened a few days before but we still had to prepare for my dad's mom and grandma.

When my dad got home, we made dinner and then just watched movies and played games.

We all went to bed early since we knew that tomorrow will be a long day.

Last day as Life as a 31 year old

 Today marks the last day of Life as a 31-year-old. Tomorrow the blog title will change to Life as a 32 year old and I am excited for it.

Day in the life: December 23, 2021

 This morning, we got up and I got ready for work. I went to Dutch Bros first and then headed to work.

I ended up getting off work early and then headed to go to the gas station and do some last minute I items because I knew that we would get some snow and would not want to drive home.

I got home and just relaxed for the rest of the night.

Going back to the Grotto

I am thinking about making this a goal for 2022 Christmas season to return to the Grotto for the first time in years.

I also want to go to the Zoo lights

Upstairs Christmas Tree

A few weeks ago, I was finally able to put up the upstairs Christmas tree but didn't know if I wanted to use the White lights or the muliti color lights.

I made it a point to start decorating it just a day later so that way it would not look weird for Christmas. 

I got most of it put on the tree just a few days before Christmas.

Christmas Eve came, and I finally finished the upstairs and I know that I am going to have to take it all down in the next few days, but I don't want to.

Three days of Snow

 Since Christmas Eve, we have gotten snow and we are expecting at least three more days.

Snow on December 18 to 19

 Right before our Christmas party, it had snowed. The good thing on December 19th, it had melted away.

Day in the life: December 19, 2021

 This morning, I woke up at 4am and then went back to sleep for a few more hours. It had snowed all night long. 

We had a Christmas party around 3pm so that morning, we just relaxed and enjoyed some time together. 

We got to the family Christmas party and were surprised to see my cousin there because we thought that it would only be my aunt, my parents, my sister and her family, Grandma and myself.

After the Christmas party, we went to the Christmas lights on Franklin Street before heading home.

January 2022 goals and posts

 My goal and posts will remain the same for the new year and month

Franklin Street Christmas Lights

 On December 19th, we had our family Christmas party and then my mom and I went to the Franklin Street. She seems to like the Christmas lights more than the Halloween lights.

Drama on Christmas

 Today might be Christmas but there was a lot of drama with my dad's mom. I am not here to expose her but she needs to learn how she treats and lash out on people is not okay.

You treat people like they are below you and that's wrong. You are in the wrong and need to work on that. I get that your mom treated you this way, but this is not okay.

The emotional abuse that you have dealt out on many of our family members is not okay 

Christmas 2021

 Merry Christmas Everyone

Christmas Eve

 I can't believe that today is Christmas Eve. We were supposed to start getting snow last night but did not start until this morning.

 Today marked the last day of the work week of 2021. We won't go back until January 3rd

I love the simple design on this planner. I can't wait to start using it in January 2022. It came in today and was able to film it for my Youtube channel. The second planner that I ended up ordering is the Harry Potter planner. It comes in on Monday so I can't wait to set it up.

While I was waiting in Portland, my sister texted to me to see if we were still on and I was like yes. She asked if I would not mind driving to Ikea when it would be on the "Way". I headed over there and were able to get it done.

We got to the zoo and I did have to wait for my sister for a little bit but I did not mind. 

Movie Review: Girl in the basement

Before I give a little bit of why I was not a fan of this movie. I have to say that the actors did a good job telling the story.

Now the reason that I did not like this movie, no father should ever abuse their child like that. It was gross and I am sure that it does happen

Beach Weekend

 Well, tomorrow is the big beach trip. I can't believe that it's been almost six months since our last trip. We have not talked about another beach trip but I know that there will be another one in the fall.

One day, I returned to my 9 to 6pm and then the next day I was called in at 8:15 to work until 5:15. I was also told that my work schedule was changing to 8 to 5pm which is nice.

On the morning of September 7th, I had left Dutch Bros and drove to pick up my friend.

It's part of the reason that the posts have been lacking at the beginning of the month but I am better now in which that I am ready to talk about.

I approached 58th and Anderson Road and notice that a car did not stopped at the light and hit another truck. I made sure that they were both okay but as you all know that I recently got into my own car accident back in February so I was still shaken up

Work is about to hit ten months and it's going great. I really wish that I would have found this job back in July 2021 but God had other plans.

Saving Up for the beach

 So I have started a new system to save up money so that way I am not struggling for when I go on trips.

So let's show you how I do it.

So each paycheck, I budget for my bills first because they have to come first. Then I decide how much will go into each pocket.

Car maintenance usually gets 20 dollars. Casino usually gets 40 dollars. Dining out usually gets 20 dollars. Gas will get anywhere from 40 to 60 dollars. Gifts usually get 20 dollars. Hotel usually get 40 dollars. Misc usually gets 40 dollars. Shopping usually gets 20 dollars. Transportation will get anywhere from 20 to 40 dollars. Travel will usually get anything that is left over from my weekly cash amount to 40 dollars.

Then I will figure out how much will come out from Chase and how much I will have leftover.

This morning, I got up and got ready to take my friend to the DMV. I really still don't know why I had to do it when both her son and son-in-law were home or the fact that she had Friday off.

We managed to get done before the time that we were supposed meet my sister and niece. We spent quite awhile with my sister and niece.

We went home and before I did that I went to get gas and then headed home to start laundry.

Cash Stuffing Adventure

  Written on August 1, 2021

We ended up having to keep the dog until four pm so most of the day, I did not do anything but resting for most of the day.

We went to drop the dog off at the humane soceity and then went to get food. We came back and I was not in the mood for anything. It's a good thing that I am a week behind in plan with me because it gave me the rest of the day to relax with little to no filming.

I went to bed around 10pm since I did not have to get up until later Monday morning.

Day in the life: July 31, 2021

  Written on July 31, 2021

We slept in until 8:30am before getting ready to head home. We decided to stop at a little spot past the falls and just stayed there for about ten minutes.

We dropped our friend off before heading to get my friend's daughter from my friend (her sister) at the Freddies.

I took the girls back to Vancouver before spotting to get sushi. We went to go get car wash and then headed back to her place.

I dropped them off and then headed home. I did managed to find a lost dog that ended up staying the night.

Stay tune for Sunday and Monday.

At 3:30am, we went to bed only to wake a few hours later to go to the falls. It was wonderful to be back. We stayed at the water for a few hours to cool down before heading back to the hotel.

Before getting back to the hotel, we went to get sushi. We just relaxed for the rest of the night until 8pm when we headed to the river.

We managed to go to bed by 10pm.

Day in the life: July 29, 2021

This morning, I loaded up my car and headed to get Dutch Bros to enjoy my morning at work. I was really surprised that someone forgot that I was not taking them this morning which is something that I don't get. I quickly reminded them that I am not taking them to work this morning.

I headed to work and spent the whole day at work. I ended up feeling the need to bringing my laptop into work which I was find with.

I ended up getting off work at six pm and headed to get another Dutch because I knew that tonight would be a long night of driving. We made it in at 11:01 and change for bed. We knew that tomorrow would be a long day.

StoryTime: Lost dog

 So Saturday afternoon when I went home, there was a small black dog. I tried to send the dog home but she was so scared. We waited to see if it's owner showed up to our house in hopes to find their dog but there was no one.

I took a picture of the dog to send it to my dad so that way he can message our next-door neighbor to see if he knew where she lives so we were able to take the dog home but no such luck.

We knew that if the owner did not show up then we would have to take the dog to the humane society. We looked it up and it looked like they had recently closed for the day so we had to wait for the next day.

The dog ended up staying the night at our house and the next afternoon we took her down to the Humane society so they would be able to take care of it.

Hello August

As we are celebrating our freedom, there are many states that are not allowing their cities to light off fireworks due to the heat.

Days off this month

 As always we have the weekends off but we also have July 5th and 30th off.

Movie Review: Fast 9

 This movie was a lot different then the past eight films. One being Paul Walker not even being in the film. They did mention that his character was watching Dom's son and the kids when Mia showed up.

I must say how they introducted Dom's brother Jakob into the movie was good and I hope that they bring him back for the next two films.

I really hope that they bring back Paul's brother to play Brain for the last two films because it will be different if he is not in

I was so happy that they brought in Han's return this movie because the movie was not the same without him.

Hello July

 This month, we have three birthdays and Fourth of July.

Work: We don't have to work on July 5th. I already scheduled July 30th off. We will also be sharing a work update.

We loaded up the car closer to 1pm and left. I knew that I had a strong feeling that I left my car charger in her car so the next time that we go up there. I have to get it back.

We decided to take a pit stop and ate food. Denny's accidently gave us the wrong and we did not catch it until after we paid so we ended up paying for another table's food.

Movie Review: Creulla

 The movie was good and I hope that they come back with a sequel to it.

The questions that I was left with after the movie.

What made her turn on the dogs in 101? 

Return of the movie theater

 On Sunday marked the first time in over a year that I step foot in a movie theater in over a year and half.

It was crazy to think that the last time we were able to step foot in a movie theater because of the president from hell that did not do anything when it came of COVID.

It's crazy to believe that we had been closed down for over a year due to the fact that Washington had one of the highest cases and republican's don't care about the American people. They came that they do but they don't.

Thank God we are a democrats' state that actually wants to save our lives instead of killing them

Special little one turns 9

 I wanted to wish the youngest one a belated birthday. 

Yesterday, she turned nine. It's hard to believe that I started to watch her when she was eleven months old.

I knew that tomorrow would be a busy day so it's time to get some sleep.

4 day work week part 2

 It's another Four day work week this week. 

best and worst defensive of the dark arts teachers

 As many of you know that Harry Potter is one of my all time favorite movies, so I thought that it will be interesting to see who I rank as the worst and who I rank as the best defensive of the dark arts teachers.

The Teachers: 

Lupin would be one of the top ones because he would always put the children first along with his friends. The way that he would always help Harry with Snape is good.

Snape is kinda toss up because back when he was potions, I did not like him and then change his way when the he passed away.

Lockhart is one of the worst teachers because he turned out to be fake. He only cared about himself.

"Moody" aka Crouch Jr. is one of the worst teachers. At first, I like "Moody" because he was looking out for Harry but turns out that he was not doing it for Harry but for You know who.

Carrow is undecided because you can't rank him but from what the books say that he is one of the worst teachers.

Umbridge is surely one of the worst teachers from her abuse of power from the ministry. She made a lot of the teachers mad when she was trying to conduct a review on them. 

Quirrell is one of the worst teachers from the very beginning. It was kinda to see that he was a bad guy because of the fact that he had nervous tics.

Now let's really rank them.

1. Lupin

2. Snape

3. Lockhart

4. Carrow

5. Crouch Jr. Aka Moody

6. Quirrell

7. Umbridge

Make up Spring Break Trip

 So we are currently on our beach weekend trip to make up the one that happen during spring break

Day in the life: May 9, 2021

 Written on May 9, 2021

This morning, I did not fall asleep until 1:30am and then woke up at 6:30am. I decided that it was time to change my sheets and then wash them when we get to the laundry mat. I know that we are going to have a lot of washing to get done.

After we were done washing the clothes, we headed back to the old house and waited for my dad. He is getting us a new washer machine that we get to learn how to use it.

Then I went to the store to buy lunches for the week. I met my parents back at the old house and then we headed home where we unloaded the car and put dad's new sticker on his truck.

I would later just relax upstairs before putting the sheets back on my bed to say good night.

I will see you guys tomorrow for a new blog post.

Beach Weekend

 Today is the day that we are going to the beach

4 day work week part 1

 This week starts a two week of working only 4 days. I have this Friday off.

Packing for the Beach

 So I decide to write a list of the things that I need to pack for a trip. 

I also gather up the items of the things on the list. Then I put them all in a bag.

Day in the life: May 8, 2021

 This morning, I woke up with a really bad headache so I decided to take a little break and stay home instead of going to the house to help with the clean up process.

I ended up starting laundry which sadly the washer machine decided that it wanted to start acting up. The washer machine decided that it wanted to lock it's doors for hours on end but the bad thing is both of my work shirts are in the washer machine.

Around 2pm, I decided that it was time to start heading down right at the time my parents decided that it was time to head home. We were talking about going to Lucky Eagle but decided to head to Ilani. Up first, we had to go to Dutch Bros and then head to the bank to get money.

I ended up only losing about fifty bucks which was fine. We headed home and just relax for the rest of the night. 

I ended up deciding to head to bed around 11:30pm.
