declutter my house (read all 4 entries…)
halfway there 5 months ago

I have decluttered and cleaned up most of my downstairs and my bedroom. I still have half the house to finish, plus the basement. I have taken at least 20 boxes of stuff to donate to Goodwill, and lots of stuff to recycle/throw away. It is so much easier to clean the house when there is a place to put everything.


learn to play pool.
finally 5 months ago

After a very long time, I have finally mastered the right grip to have on the pool cue. The other night I was playing and it suddenly happened, and I played much, much better. I think I can cross “learn to play pool” off my list, because I am comfortable enough to play now. I have had this goal on my list forever, and I am so happy to actually be able to say that I can play pool.


remember I always have a choice about how I respond to experiences in my life (read all 2 entries…)
obsessing 10 months ago

Ok, I am at a point where I need to deal with a situation, and don’t know how to get over it. The short story is, I had been called by a person I had worked for in the past and told that a position within the company would be opening up soon, and he wanted me for the job. Basically promised to hire me. So I applied for the job and so far haven’t been called back for a 2nd interview. At the first interview, he basically backtracked on his promise, saying there were a lot more applicants than he thought there would be.

The announcement for who got the job will be Friday, so there are still a few days for me to wait and see, but I am anxious, worried and sad that I might have somehow screwed up a sure thing. My stomach aches and I am jittery and can’t concentrate on anything else. I am getting very worked up over something that may or may not happen. And if I don’t get the job, I will be so mad. But again, I have a few days to wait and see, so how do I stop obsessing over it?
