Weekly Update

This week has been kind of mixed. My weekend away to visit friends was a whole lot of fun, and I had a little bit of time to relax on Sunday. I have successfully done cardio every day in October (all both of them), despite yesterday getting hijacked by my dad for a couple hours. I've been doing well with Duolingo and I made a lot of progress on assembling my blanket. I've also been able to read a lot of my book while doing cardio at the gym, so that is a nice bonus.

There's been a bit of family drama re-surfacing lately, which is draining both in terms of spoons and in terms of time. I have a feeling I'm going to have to be careful in October so I don't end up feeling overscheduled or burnt out. I did purposefully try to keep my schedule clear this month, so with a little luck, I should be alright. I also have Monday and Tuesday off work for my birthday, so that will help some too.

Coming up, I have plans to go to an apple orchard on Saturday, then on Sunday some family is coming over for dinner for my birthday, probably pizza. I'm going out with coworkers for drinks tomorrow after work, and I'm going to try to find time to see my good friend. I'm on day shift this week, so our regular lunch meeting wasn't able to happen.

I don't have any plans for Monday and Tuesday, so I will probably try to use them to just relax and have fun. The following weekend is Canadian Thanksgiving, so I'll have another long weekend coming up, which is a nice bonus.

I hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of the fall season and life is treating you well. Talk again soon!
