Budget and Shopping

Today was pay day, and I went ahead and paid off all my bills for the rest of the month. I was left with $400 which went straight to paying off my Freedom card.  Unfortunately I still have $300 left to pay on it. $100 is from an unexpected doctor's bill from when I had my thyroid biopsy. Wah wah...

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my career lately. Even though I've only been in the banking industry for a little over a year, I really miss my Administrative position from Texas A&M University. I try to envision myself in 5-10 years and I don't like the look of me working in the bank lol. I don't see myself getting that far. I don't see myself working in the Back Offices, just because I am not the least bit interested in anything Financial, Stocks, or Investments. When I envision myself in Administrative positions, I see myself doing it for the long run. I love the Office setting, the interactions with people, and also the daily paperwork and reporting. I love being given tasks to complete. Annnnnd, I can see myself working my way up into an Executive Admin, Assist. 

Here is my interview outfit for whenever I may get one. Unfortunately everything at the mall is either see-through, or cut off at the belly button these days. I'm trying to get away from the buttoned up shirts, and mix it up a little.  So here it is.... p.s. I pulled the shirt up to the right spot, so it isn't as low as this one might be.

Yay or Nay?? Idk....

How do you make fish?!

Well, apparently there is one thing my boo hates that I cook, and that is fish! I can't ever seem to make it taste good for him. I don't mind it, I can eat pretty much anything even if it is bland :) I tried to make baked fish and chips, that didn't work out at all, then I tried to make fish with some seasoning on top. Well, Rob ate everything but the fish!! Maybe he just doesn't like fish? I'm taking it personally and won't stop until he loves it! hahah :)

Fail!!

I still haven't cooked my pork chops that I got at Albertson's on the first for a buy one get one free. I followed the recipe below (minus the cranberry sauce). It turned out amazing!! I think one of my favorites. I made mashed potatoes and green beans on the side. Amaz.

Zumba!

Zummmmbbbaa!! Since I am such a cheap person, I decided instead of taking work out classes at a gym, I could easily find them on YouTube. I know a lot of people need to go to the gym for the motivation, but I can motivate myself easy (once I get off the couch). My new favorite thing I've been doing is Zumba. I found this video on YouTube from a college where an instructor videotapes a whole hour of his workout. I've only does this 3 times, the first two I stopped at 20 minutes. Today I stopped at 35 minutes, but also did some squats and lunges earlier in the morning. I also cleaned for about two hours, which I'm sure burned a little bit of calories.  Unfortunately I haven't been in the mood to eat today so all I've had is half a can of tomato soup, and some yogurt covered raisins. 

Top Golf tonight with some old college friends, so I'm sure I'll pig out on some bad foods.
