Every night before I close my eyes I write a list of things I need and should do the next day. I list the things that need to be cleaned, stores I need to go to, ideas I may have, things I need to buy, and anything else I can think of before I forget it. I would be lying if I said I got even half of the things on my list done each day, most of the time they just carry over until the next day and eventually get taken off because I hopefully accomplished the task. I reference my list a lot through the day, so I know it’s a good idea. I just need to find a way to get more things done or have smaller list. I find myself spending a greater part of the day playing, feeding, changing, and taking care of my son and in my spare time, mostly during his naps and bedtime doing school work or making hats. I can get a lot of cleaning and outing with my son. I am going to go to bed tonight and make a list for tomorrow and try to finish it. I am only going to put a few things I know I can accomplish and only a few task I would like to get done. I can save all the other projects for later.
12 NovProcrastinator
I have a busy school week ahead of me two test, two assignment, and 2 large reports due by the end of the week. I am a horrible procrastinator and I don’t do anything that I should until last minute. I get real bad and wait until I have about 2 hours left to turn in my assignment then I start them. Now that the semester is almost over there are the end of the semester term papers are due, most of them before Thanksgiving too. I should be doing my report right now but I do everything I can to do anything else. Back to work!
11 NovSleep
I am to tired to care. I need to be in bed but there are things that must get done. I am a mom and my day is never done. It is the husband’s day off and I get to relax a little bit tomorrow but I still have to get up early with the baby. I am hoping he sleeps in to at least 8. I need to get to bed, to tired.
10 NovSpring 2012
Today I was able to register for spring cases. I have to take a biology class that I wasn’t able to get into this semester. It is a long 3 hour class two days a week. I also signed up for 3 other classes. I am sad because I will be going to school on campus 4 days a week. It is going to be hell not being able to do my homework whenever I want. I have been spoiled this semester. I am still taking one of my classes online. If I get good grade then I get to apply for the medical program for the fall since I finished all of my prerequisites. It is exciting because I will be that much closer to getting my degree. Yay for being a grown up.
09 NovHuff…
I try to keep my blog on a somewhat upbeat tone. I am not here to share all the bad times in my life and ask for pity but this is my blog, the stories of my life. Like many people I have hard times too. I feel I should be able to share my bad times without letting them consume my blog so here goes. I am sure many of you have heard the saying “you are damned if you do, damned if you don’t”. I feel like that saying sums up my life right now. There are so many people in the world and I seem to attract a certain type that expects the world from people. I am only one person and I can only do so much. I am also human. I am going to make mistakes, just like everyone else in the world. I wish I had the right answer for everything, but I don’t.
08 NovCandy anyone?
I have a sour patch kid, or at least that what I like to call him. He reminds me of those commercials where the sour patch kid gummy candy cuts off the girls pigtail then apoligized hugs her then is brushing the other pigtail. My child likes to do mean painful things then turns around and kisses you then snuggles. You cant help but to forgive him because after all what ever he did wasn’t that bad, was it?
I have come to learn that this kid knows more than he is letting on to. He is too smart for his age and he is just getting smarter. He knows everytime he pulls my hair he is not suppose to but by giving me a kiss it is now ok to pull my hair, as long as he kisses me after. I need to find new ways to out smart this kid every day.
07 NovBlack Friday
Today I started scoping out the sales on this coming Black Friday. I am excited for this year. I plan on doing the majority of my Christmas shopping after Thanks Giving. I don’t plan on going crazy and camping out anywhere but like last year I can just go shopping from home and get a lot of great deals. I am looking to get a new tv. I want to move the tv in the living room in to my bedroom and get a larger tv for the living room. Right now Target is having a good deal on tvs, I can only imagine what the deals are going to be like on Black Friday.
I remember one year I stood outside of a Circuit City for 6 hours then another 4 hours inside just to get a few great deals. That was the year I got a nice laptop for $100. I don’t plan on doing anything crazy like that. I guess it all depends on the deal. I can only imagine that people I will have to face with the economy the way it is and people needed to save every penny. My sister-in-law and her mother-in-law camp out at Wal-Mart every year to get the deal on toys for all of the kids. They always tell me if I ever need anything to just let them know, since they will be there anyways.
I guess I will just have to keep checking the sites and ultimately wait for the newspaper to come out will all the ads.
06 NovSunday
It was Sunday and in our house this time of year that means FOOTBALL, especially when the Green Bay Packers are playing. We happen to be a big Packer family. I hate to admit it but my bedroom is covered in sports memorabilia. After last year and the Packers winning the super bowl everyone has been on edge to see if they can do it again. With them not losing a game so far I think chances are looking good.
Football has been a big part of my Sundays as long as I can remember. When I was little my dad would watch the games with his friends. We always had sauce and meatballs. I miss that part of football Sundays. It has been few weeks since we had a big pot of sauce cooking. There are only us who eat it when we make it, so I end up freezing some of the sauce. I even have some I was planning on defrosting for dinner one night this week.
I am happy to see that Green Bay is doing well this year and it makes for a happy house hold.
05 NovJunk in my trunk
I am so tired of spam mail. An email address is like a phone number, something that you can keep no matter where you go, how many times you move, or even what state you live in. One of the bad parts is that over time I have given my email address and phone number to hundreds of sites and peoples. Now I get spam mail every day. I try to “unsubscribe” from their mailing list but I think that is just a scam because still receive junk from the same sites, as for those spam filters, they are a joke. They only filter the things you really want to read and let all the other junk through. I am at the point of changing my email just to not have 130 emails a day with more than half being junk or things I just do not care about.
04 NovCartoon time
I must admit I am a sucker for cartoon movie. I just got the movie Cars 2 and I have been dying to watch it. I am going to stay up late tonight just to be able to watch it. I cannot wait until my son is old enough to go to the movies. We will be as every children’s movies opening weekend. We watch Happy Feet the other day in anticipation for Happy feet 2. I think there is something about those movies that bring me back to my child hood and I get a smile on my face just thinking about it.
