Wordless Toddler Tuesday

 

Seven reasons I wanted to blog.

Seven things that attract me to blogging:
1. Vent, vent, vent
2. Have something to do when bored.
3. Rant, rant, rant
4. It's cathartic
5. I am nosey, I like to visit others who visit me and peek in on their lives.
6. I can be funny - sometimes
7. Sometimes I just like to bitch

Is it just me?

Is it just me or does this creep you out too? I admit I only half watched the opening ceremony but wow this is creepy.

5 on Friday

1. What did you have for breakfast today?
Haven't eaten it yet! But I will probably have some oatmeal. 

 2. What chore do you hate the most?
Altho I no longer do chores I would say Mopping, because it seems so futile! Or raking leaves, because as soon as I think I'm done more always fall and I have to do it again, and where I grew up snow usually fell before all the leaves were down.  

3. Do you have a lucky piece? If yes, give details.
Weirdly, though I have a lot of compulsive actions I do for luck (or just to feel right), I don't have any lucky objects. 

 4. Describe one of the best laughs you have ever had.
Too hard to pick one! I hang out with a lot of hilarious people. 

 5. What song always manages to cheer you up?
A little Cee lo Green, and you know which one, yep that one, and maybe something like Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen

One of my many pet peeves

 

Yesterday I went thru the drive thru at a fast food restaurant.  When I paid, the cashier handed me my change with the coins resting precariously on top of the dollars. Have I ever mentioned how much that drives me mad? Because, usually I'm still holding my wallet with one hand, so then I have to try to finagle the coins off the top of the money with one hand, which is awkward and usually results in coins falling to the floor and rolling to unreachable and/or nasty places. As I was explaining to my friend how this is one of my pet peeves, she said that I'm probably the type of person who also gets angry at other drivers, and then added in mock-earnestness that she's glad she can always maintain her calm, cool demeanor in even the most annoying of circumstances. At that moment, her hair burst into flames from all the lies, lies, lies.

rough day

Having a rough time? Pi$$ed off? Frustrated? Had enough? Take a deep breath and follow these steps:

1. Embrace what is.

2. Re-focus on what's important.

3. Be in service to others.

That's a winning combo right there.

 Every.

 Single. 

Time.
