Last week I went and bought these egg carton things that you start flowers in. I planted three different colorful flowers that will be already to go outside once they are bloomed and all the snow is gone and its warm outside.
I have been cleaning only a little bit everyday thinking that it will all be nice and clean a month from now. All the junk just goes back on that kitchen table! All those dirty clothes end up back on that bathroom floor! Those dishes pile up! Those crumbs, dirt, tiny rocks, whatever all that is.. goes right back on that rug! I only live with myself and son. Before I became a housekeeper for hotels and motels a year and a half ago, my house was SPOTLESS!! I could have licked the floor and not regret it! (of course I never did that! lol) Now Its like, ‘who wants to clean all day at work, and then go home and clean some more?’
I see people all the time quitting smoking for weeks, or months, or years, and then start again. Is it really possible? Ive tried inhalers and gum, they both made me sick. Inhalers where pointless, its not the same as sucking on a filter. Gum just makes me feel like I have to puke. Patches are pointless also.
what do you say to people that you hardly talk to? When people talk to me and go on and on and on about stuff, I get really bored. And maybe if I do that, others will get bored with what IM saying!
I did good at breakfast time, but at dinner… it was horrible. I am a terrible cook! I mixed up the packets from the mac n cheese and the rice a roni! it was a bad combo, I know.. but I thought it would be fast and easy. I took cooking in school, and later on I had a lady go to my house to teach me to cook.. guess none of that helped.. :(
The only things that I have been drinking for days, is water, flavored water, and tea. Think this one wont be too hard.
I bought some fruit flavored water bottles and have been drinking them everyday. Is two a day good enough? I know you are supposed to drink a lot of water a day, but how much.
I always spend way too much time on this friggin computer. My son comes home from school or daycare or his dad’s house, and I seem too busy to play with him, read, teach im more things, take him out. This is something that I know I can do. There IS time to do this, I just make excuses some of the time.
new hobby? maybe. I like to draw, but sometimes I just never finish the job. I started a poster for my nephew with MotherGoose characters, that was last year, and havent looked at it since fall.
This goal may be related to my other goal, ‘be thankful for what I have.’ If I am more thankful, I will smile more. I need to smile at strangers, people Ive just met, old friends, new friends, family, and people I dont even like that much..because… smiles are contagious, and might just make someone’s bad moment turn good. Most of the time, especially alone, even a fake smile will become real, and just might turn into a small giggle cuz you have no idea what youre smiling for. Dont smile!
I have been slacking! Cooking is healthier, I know, and better for my son, but im just so lazy all the time, I seriously need to get up off my bum.
Most of the time, I dont think about what I have/own/love. I never thought about being thankful for some things. I do not have too much. I have a car that always has something wrong, but I need to be thankful that I even have one, and that its nice :) I need to be thankful for my family, even if they are not in the same state as me.. Some people dont have family. I need to be thankful for my home, even though it is for a low income family. I need to be thankful for my low paying job, at least I have one, and there is a lot of time for moving on whenever. I just need to be thankful.. for everything except enemies
whether you are extrememly religious, or ‘just are,’ you can pray, but a loott of people dont unless there is something going wrong in there life. Need no practice, can be alone or with someone, in bed or a bathroom stall, It will probably make me feel better.
Maybe this can be my new hobby. Of course, when all the snow is melted. I usually do plant bulbs in my backyard, but dont take too much care of them, or maybe not the right care. I should learn more about this, cant be too hard.
This is something that I think everyone should have. Maybe you have a hobby that you dont even know about, something that you do and not think of it as a hobby.. like exercising, reading, baking, decorating.. I dont know, but Ive got to get into something or life will be very boring!
I always end up eating son’s Gummy Flinstone’s vitamins, but not all the time.. they are just so much better than these adult vitamins, but I guess getting it done everyday I will get used to it, and it will be healthier.
I think this will be very fun, as long as he is not in a grumpy mood, and I have the money to do whatever. Maybe go out to eat at his favorite place, go see a kiddy movie, childrens museum.. yea he will definently like this
I neeeeed more money. Living alone with a kid is stressful. I have soo many bills to pay and little money. Got rent, gas bill, electricity, water, gas for car, insurance, Daycare, stuff for the house, and a growing child needs food, new clothes, toys, birthdays, theres xmas, easter, halloween, ect.. its haaarrrd!
being couped up in the house all the time after work is making me into a hermit.. I am missing out on things, so maybe it will be better if I get out more and learn more things.
