5 Things I'm Thinking Today

I have not lit my candles in a long time
I forgot to turn off a light
but then I love light, so that is maybe not bad
what is bad though, is I forgot to pay a bill last month
so now I will owe a late fee (unless I can "talk my way out of a paper bag!")
 
1. Stepping out of my comfort zone and doing two new things. A raffle and an automated screening process. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, besides the money going towards the raffle is for a great cause.
2. Learning a new way to juggle and hoping I don't drop balls.
3. Its dry, cool and sunny and the dogs have the zummies. Remove anything breakable and stay out of the way!
4. Need to stay away from anything stressful or even potentially stressful for a while. Have to be sure of my bearings.
5. Do I even know how to slow down, let go and have fun any more?
 
My t says that I seem to almost thrive on adversity, I think, "hell, I haven't had much choice, it was thrive or die."
The sun is out today and the buttercups are up, I think it is a beautiful world we live in,....if we just take the time to look.
I was considering leaving the forum, but decided against it,...I think it was a good decision.
I think my daughter and niece need to repay me the $200 they owe me, I am disabled and need my money!!! grrrrr
I think this is going to be a good day, regardless of challenges and limitations.
 
  • That moment you realize achieving "success", as it's currently defined/expected by most of society, would feel like a giant step backwards from all the hard-learned lessons you've painfully, desperately, and miraculously stumbled upon and put into action thus far.
  • No wonder "success" feels like an unreachable and inexplicable foreign concept more often than not.
  • Spring-like one day, freakin' arctic tornadic blasts/"bombs" the next....always an adventure in weatherville.
  • Meteorology...where you never have to be accurate, or even honest, but still get paid....oh yeah...it's media related...lol.
  • Hmmm...I wonder why more meteorologists aren't scrambling to run for political offices with those continually rewarded skill sets.
 
1. Quit trying to talk yourself out of it and just do it! Its fun, for a good cause and there is nothing to lose.
2. My world, my rules and they are fair, but not to me. So time to change it up a bit and increase my own value to myself.
3. Someone told me once that "no good deed goes unpunished" and I kinda thought they were full of crap. Unfortunately it feels that way right now so time to step back and just take care of myself for a while. Never have put "me first", but since the kids are grown and gone, maybe it is time.
4. This whole having "fun" thing is hard as I am not a "fun" person any more and just so task oriented. Learning to be spontaneous or planning spontaneity seems like an oxymoron.
5. Focused on the goals, but need to not be hyper focused
