A Day in the Life...
Hello everyone... well, I haven't posted when I said I would! grrr. Now, honestly, I am on the pc enough to do this daily, but it's just not a current habit of mine. Right now, my days start off in a bad mood, just kidding! LOL But, I am sooooo not a morning person! At all!
I wake up and make sure the pc is up and running. Now, I either shower first, or post on weightwatchers.com first. I've been posting on the WW website for over 1 1/2 years now. First started with a thread called SCRAPBOOKING QUEEN - CALLING ALL CROPPERS! (in the 100+ Pounds to Lose message board) and then wanted to start up a thread in the Neighbors message board. I've called it NEPA LOSERS and that's more my baby. That's the thread that is up to me to start up every day so that others can find it when they wake up. I enjoy the friends I've met on those threads... Also, it helps me not stray too far the "losing weight" goal in my life right now.
Then it's a frenzy for grabbing shower/lunch/kisses from Ivan and getting out the door in time to get to work. Plus, I carpool with a fellow employee, so have to go and pick her up. Then it's work... til 4:30 pm.
After work, it's usually, drop off my co-worker at home, then get home myself, where dinner is either waiting or very close to being done. When I was younger, I often ate late at night, but know that it isn't the healthiest habit, so we've totally grabbed hold of being done by 7 pm in my house.
Then I, being the TV addict that I am, usually plop down in front of the TV for the night. That is NOT healthy, I know... sometimes I go online, but I pretty much do that in the mornings... so maybe making some time for it at night is the habit I need to create for myself.
The weekends are usually just more of the same stuff, but usually I have interests that I like to take part in... now, this is the first year I've really tried to get out of my comfort zone and get out in the real world to do things. So, even if it's not running a marathon or going to the gym, it's way more active than I've been in a very long time. I've been visiting gardens (as I've said before)... or I find places to visit that are interesting to me and a couple of friends that have decided that it isn't so bad seeing me more than just at the ol' place of employment.
My interests still are: Family (alot of me choosing to stay home alot is my love for just hanging with my husband and my son)... TV Watching, Movie going, going out with friends to try new food spots... some hobbies are: Digital Photography... love taking pics and then sharing them with friends or scrapbooking them... Any craft that grabs my attention and seems fairly easy but yet still allows my own creativity to shine through. Some things that I do only IF I'm in the mood for them: Cooking. I'm not super domestic... so certain things I just have to be in the mood for... and I've often blogged about doing those things... spending entire days cooking and getting food setup for the week ahead... or some home project that allows me to enjoy my home more...
Gardening... well, this is a topic that I claimed all last year into just loving... but the truth of it is that I love gardens and don't know the first thing about them to create one in my own yard. So, this frustrates me to no end. I have planted alot of things in my yard this year, but haven't maintained any of it... so it's very disappointing and I know I'm not doing right by it... :-( I wish I had enough money to get someone over here to do it for me and then I can just maintain after the fact...
I think that's a good post for now... Oh yeah, I'm still a total techie and love to twitter and look at websites and such as that...
Also, the desire to create a blog that I have lots of followers to is still there... so, I need to try to post daily and build up a following... Let's hope that happens! LOL
