Just let go, just be.

It's amazing how when you save your money, you can watch how quickly it grows.
Especially, when your working 5 days a week, 3 of which, are in a row.
Leaving work with over $50 in my pocket each night for a few days has clearly added up.
You do the math. But not so fast Ashley, you still have to continue adding on to your debt payment.
Which by the way, is now down to $700.
Possibly purchasing a pair of running shoes on Sunday.
Hopefully that can be a source of motivation.

Rushed from work last night to Jake's house where I quickly changed and Jake, his Dad, and I all headed to the mall to get Jake's new laptop.
Jake ended up getting a Macbook Pro for college, lucky boy.
Played around on the computers while they got everything together for him.
Ran into an old family friend who has known me since I was born, who now works there.
I call her, "Gail-Friend" one word.
Ended up staying after hours at the mall, inside the Apple store, just talking to the people that worked there. Discussing technology and photography. I really enjoyed it.
Unable to exit through the main doors of the mall due to it being closed, we realized eating in the food court was not a possibility.

Went down the road to Red Robin where we entered the last 15 minutes, you know they loved us. Ate a yummy late night dinner and then headed home.
Stayed up on the phone late into the night and early into the morning talking and listening to jake discover new features on his laptop.

I've realized that holding on to things won't do you any good.
All it does is keep the hurt there still hurting.
Sometimes you just need to let everything go.
What good does holding on to a grudge do anyway?
Hearts are not for hating.
I forgive you.

Down at 4, and up at 9, still functioning, still moving.
I suppose it's time to get my brother and sister ready and drop them off at my grandmothers.
I then will head off to work where I will add another $50 + to my pocket.
Done around 7, I'll hopefully spend some time with Jake before heading home where Jocelyn may come over tonight.

I found a really neat site with questions, I'll start posting them for responses from you.

The major newspaper headlines for tomorrow will be about you.
What would you want them to say?
