Wasn't able to make any Avon sales today. People seem to be more mindful of their money these days, what with the politics currently ensuing in our workplace. Wasn't able to collect any payments either. And one customer even came to me with a bit of a good and a bit of a sad news: she was happy with the eyebrow pencil, she used it twice upon delivery, but it got lost while she's on the way home. :( Really sad. But of course, she's still got to pay me for that.
Sans all these things, well, I still think that the week has been, overall, productive. Here's why:
1. Been a bit quicker, more creative at work. I believe I've somehow made it, but I still got to improve on my craft. Or maybe I'd just have to really make up for it when I get back in shape after I give birth.
2. I was able to commit to my savings target! Though not really that well, especially today, because of that very expensive Kenny Rogers roast chicken meal (and I wasn't happy about the vegetables, because there were a lot of beans... I told you I should've ordered fruits instead!)... so I was only able to save 20 pesos for these day... but all in all, I was able to save 300 pesos for the whole week. If I'll be able to keep up to this until my last trimester, I will be able to save at least P4,000 right before my leave! :) Now, I was wondering whether I'll do the same with Marky and start spending the cash for Marco's stuff, or if I'll just sack away the money first. Hmmm....
But when I was pregnant with Marky, it helped a lot that I had all the stuff ready when Daddy's about to take me to the hospital. He was worrying then about the bills and everything, he was kinda lost and didn't know what to prepare. Thankfully, I prepared all the stuff months in advance, all in a bag, so all we did was lift and go.
------------------
So there. But there's still one more area where I failed oh-so miserably, and it's with remembering to take my vitamins. 0_o
Yes, I was able to take it three days in a row. But by the fourth day, I forgot... and on the fifth... and this morning yet again.
(I took my vitamins now. Sorry, dear little son.)
Why do I need them? My OB says the pills are supposed to help my bones produce more red blood cells to prepare for the massive loss of blood inherent in pregnancies. I should've been drinking milk also. 0_o But I honestly got to forgo my daily dose of fresh milk because it costs 35 pesos a carton and I have to save at least P50 daily. :(
Maybe for next week, I'll kind of have to rehash my diet once more, so that I'll be able to put my money to where it should really be spent on.
That's it for now.
It's rest day at last. Thank you very much, Lord.
God speed....
