Goooooood Morning! Time for another round of Thursday Thoughts!
1. I’m trying to be EXTRA POSITIVE this morning. My temp job was put on hold (we’re guessing the case is going to settlement) and I found out last night. So I’m trying not to mope around today and see this as an opportunity! Smiles! Haha can you tell I’m still convincing myself?
2. Back when I had a job… ha, I discovered this amazing place called Mac Kelly’s down on Madison near Clark (for you Chicagoans). It looks like a hole in the wall but they have a salad bar along with a lot of really great food options to order, including fresh made juices! I was super impressed! And this was only $5!
3. My current favorite song:
4. One of my “To Do” list items that I need to do today is take a bunch of clothes to consignment shops to see if I can make any money. I’ve been avoiding the task for ages because I know it will take some time to walk there, wait for them to go through it all, and then really, I’m kind of afraid of rejection. Haha, but I might as well go and see if I can get some $$$!
5. Speaking of clothes: the woes of living in an apartment building. I was up early on Saturday morning sorting out my laundry when I realized I had only a few quarters… womp womp. I then had to wait 3 hours until the closest bank opened (stores around here do not like to give out rolls of quarters…). #alwaysneedquarters
6. This week I am super proud of myself for all my meal planning! It makes a huge difference with saving money since I’m not running back to the store on a whim because I “feel like” this or that. I am a little worried about today though… hopefully I can still stick to it when I’m at home and not start emotional/boredom eat… gotta stay busy!
7. My friend, Sarah, moved into my building over the weekend and while she was moving I watched her dog, Bennett for the afternoon. He was quite a handful but he’s so cute I just can’t stay mad at him for long. He also discovered my fish, Neville, and was quite curious.
8. Have a great Thursday!
Do you ever buy fresh pressed juice? Where do you get it?
