Why Do You Keep Coming Back Here?

Only my Mom will truly appreciate this post, and what she will appreciate is that she is not the person who has to put up with this anymore. Joe is lucky I don't allow myself to do this for real and instead make it into a joke and blog about it.

I hate when I reach a point in life when what seems the best action is to lay down on the floor and kick and whine to someone who is willing to listen about all the things you want to POOF disappear or change! Its like the perfect storm (most likely the result of hormones) has erupted and nothing is right. So just to be funny this is my tantrum and you are the person.

My house is a mess

The laundry is NEVER done

My socks have holes in them

I need new underwear, I'm tired of them not fitting right every other day (back to the laundry problem)

I have been eating waaaay too many Christmas treats

I have a headache (see above)

My jeans don't fit (see above)

My brain is overwhelmed

I have no desire to exercise

Im too busy for snuggle baby naptime

I just want to crochet something while watching Christmas in Connecticut darn it!

I wish my coupon to see the Shillito's Elves hadn't expired on Sunday

I want the wood box to be full of dry wood instead of outside dripping wet

I want to like Downton Abbey but I cant get past the first episode

I don't like the gifts we got for the girls this year

Ill stop now

 

yeah. see. theres nothing pretty about that and when you allow yourself to whine it just starts to get out of control.

So instead lets do what I am thankful for.

I got 95% of my Christmas cards mailed today

I have pretty painted toes and a fresh haircut this week and even if my brain was too preoccupied with stupid stuff to enjoy the time without children and with good company to really enjoy it I can still enjoy the result.

I finally have the "go ahead" on a childrens curriculum so I can start planning and I am choosing right now, today, to wait until after Christmas to do so :o)

I enjoy cooking and have a yummy meal planned for tonight

I have the ability to get up right now and tidy my house and jump on the treadmill (hahahahaha) if I wanted to. So lets dig through a basket of clean laundry, find a pair of big girl panties and get over yourself. Look at the big picture. Shut up, ask for help, slow down, stop doing "stuff", and read that last post from just a few short days ago when you had some perspective!
