Thursday Thirteen
Thirteen Things about LINDSEY

I’m back to Thursday Thirteen-ing! Yay!!!

1. Since I withdrew from grad school, I need to get a job. And I have no idea where to start, cause I thought I wouldn’t be doing this search for another 8 months. Any ideas? Know of any jobs in North Carolina?

2. Now that I’m not going to school every day, I’ve got a lot more time on my hands, and I’ve been accomplishing a lot at home. I’ve sorted through a lot of things and I’ve gotten a lot of cleaning done.

3. With that free time I managed to buy ALL my Christmas presents! As in, I’m done! Unless something pops up last minute, my presents are finished.

4. I’ve also gotten all my Christmas cards addressed - still haven’t written them, but the addressing is done.

5. And since I’m updating on my life and goings on, I should mention that I’ve made progress on my 101 in 1001! Today I am 32.47% through with the time, and I’ve completed 37.62% of my tasks. I’m pretty excited about that! Since I last posted about the 101, here are the things I’ve finished:

6. I completed #2 - regularly updating my faith blog, Reading Red Letters. I would still like to update more often, but I have been doing well thus far, and hopefully it will continue to be this way!

7. My brother Bo is a freshman in college, and #7 on my list was keeping in touch with him. Not only have we kept in touch, but we see each other fairly often - once every other week or so. It’s been great, I’m so glad that he’s up here!

8. I’ve also got #14 down - I’m regularly flossing, LOL!

9. And regularly taking my vitamins (#16).

10. Well, #28 was to set up a new place to live after graduation, but now that I’m not in school, I guess that I completed that one back in July, LOL!

11. With my new budget I’ve maintained saving $5 a day (#32) - hint, I take it out of my account as soon as I get my check.

12. #49 was to maintain cleaning apartment at least once a month. Now I have FlyLady. ‘Nuff said. (P.S. - you should ALL be FLYing!)

13. One of the best things about living with Matt and Ben is that Matt is very into politics, and he knows that in general I am not an idiot, so I can ask as many stupid politics questions as I want and he won’t judge me. So I ask them all the time :-) - check off #51!

    I too tried Flying…I love my Control Journal, but that’s about as much as I’ve been able to stick to. I think it’s due in part to having a baby and another on the way. It’s just so tough to keep a schedule with them screwing it up all the time! I will admit to cleaning my kitchen sink on a regular basis, though! I love a clean sink!

    Happy Thursday!

    I’m so jealous. I haven’t even found my address book yet and you’ve already got your Christmas cards and shopping completed? Wow!

    I can’t believe about the Christmas gifts. That’s awesome!

    I am so with you on the saving ~ we manage £5 a day, but it has to come out at the start of the month. On pay day in fact! I am however woefully behind you in the Christmas preparation stakes!!

    My TT is up :o)

    I tried Flylady–but I got so bogged down with the emails, I stopped. I’m lucky I can find my laptop in the morning!

    Good for you on your accomplishments!

    Cheers!

    Good for you! Good luck with the job search…I’m in the midst of one myself. And all done Christmas shopping?! That’s amazing…

    I have a love/hate relationship with FlyLady. I just threw a load of whites in the washer and cleaned up my kitchen because of your reminder, though. Christmas is going to be lean around this house. Good luck with the job hunting.

    Happy TT!

    I was so excited to see that you’d joined FlyLady–I’ve been doing it for, oh, about three and a half years now, and I LOVE it. I don’t do it perfectly (like this week, the WHB is not happening on Monday since I have a cold), but I like how I have permission not to do it perfectly. Anyway, just thought I’d share. :) (This is Jennifer (Whelan) Senter, by the way.)
