Babysitting.... it's an adjustment hehe..
So I did my 1st day of babysitting last week Friday ( after just 2 hours notice)..it was supposed to be from 5-11 PM but it was really til 1-1:30 AM so my earlier Beach Day plans ended up getting scrapped BY me cuz I didn't even get to sleep til after 2...
I did get in a Walmart trip ( saw cases of saimin, but just got 6), ran into my sister guys ALSO going to Walmart and chatted w/brother in law as we waited for my sister to get the kids meals at McDs..we both smirked at this ' crazy' older guy who came up to me and smacked my shoulder, then yelled out 'balloons, they have balloons' gesturing to the VDay setup & walked off...I thought to myself, ok Uncle...well everyone's got one of those in the fam..
I then went to Cinnabon at the mall ( after declining my sister's offer to take me home)..Cinnabon was awesome! It might actually be worth it next time to get the extra frosting!
I had agreed to get together Sat night Sat as I was getting dropped off w/my Hawaii 'cousins' for a BBQ but when I saw that rain was coming and it was an hour and a half past my sister saying when she would pick me up, figured it was called off, so started dinner. As I was eating and watching the Monobob Heat 1, get a text saying it's still on and that..I declined cuz Idk how it would be to be around them all drinking and shit & I'm already all committed to my Night In..
This week has been ok...tried to do my paper recycling but found out the place I take my cans/bottles to, that they don't accept those despite their website saying yes to soda cases and stuff..I do think there is one place down the street that does it ( but only on the 1st or 2nd Saturday of the month)... will try them next month..after I get the info again...
I ate at Hilo Town Tavern the other day & while the burger was 'good', it felt like a bigger Loco Moco patty vs a Applebee's/Outback burger..the fries were REALLY good tho so might see what else they have for entrees...loved the outdoor seating and cool local ( Reggae and Hawaiian) music being played from their CD player..
I did my 1st back to back of long days babysitting ( well, 6 AM-3:30 PM and 8-3:30 the next day) this past weekend and while most times it goes by ok, there's always 1-2x where I do 'get mad' at them for not listening, but that's mostly bc what they are doing something that might injure themselves or their sibling or if they are running around yelling..
Today was a short day of just 3 hrs ( got in a Walmart/Target trip a few hrs beforehand for drinks, few dinners and lunch meat)...my brother in law is going to start BIKING to his new job, since they only have one car so hopefully my sister's work isn't TOO far for him to realistically bike...yeah, she went and got him a bike at Walmart as she dropped me off, then came back to use my card ( since ApplePay doesn't get taken at Walmart??), got the bike and had to drop off lunch to brother in law at work...she scrapped her coming over to bathe at my place plans due to being tired from all the back & forth..I did see a insulated lunch bag on the counter over at their place so hopefully he starts using it hehe..
Tomorrow is a long day for me ( 1-7:15, get picked up around noon) so I still have time to deposit my 3 days of work while getting some musubis for me to eat while there...depositing the bike money ( + long day pay) on my day off of Thursday w/getting a Little Caesars pizza ( EMB always has just a little too much for sauce, might HAVE to do their Hot N Ready for $8)...weekends off:)
Workouts have been nice, got in a short yoga of just 10 mins 1 day, a 45 minute yoga and Primal Yoga w/a workout at the Y last week...this week, shooting for a yoga w/1 gym workout...
Family issues: my Mom said she won't work if the older girl is in the home....she got screamed at by her earlier today bc my Mom refused to clean her room for her, a 17 year old girl..and my Cali cousin is trying to rip ppl off by setting up a GoFundMe and spreading lies and shit..mostly everyone jumped on there and FB to get ppl to NOT donate.
Food: trying to eat more beans & soups in my diet...got about 3 wks of soups ( 2x/week) and 2 wks of chili beans at once/wk..
1st stop of the month to KS for a 'splurge' lunch of $2 more for $7 total
This was from Jack in the Box: 6 piece tenders meal...will definitely get it if I get the $10 coupon in the Sunday paper, but not worth $13 w/o it .
