Motivation 0, Procrastination 1,000,000,072

So, this motivation and focus thing was a great idea but christ...

I have been home from work for 3 hours and have:

-watched 3 episodes of Party Down
-made some kale chips (which took all of 15 minutes)
-checked facebook 27 times
-checked my email 6 times
-sent 19 text messages
-played with my dog

What I COULD have been doing:

-reading about Abe Lincoln
-painting or drawing
-laundry
-painting my nails
-looking up tasty veggie recipes
-crocheting or knitting

I really could have been doing anything, but no, I get sucked into the f*ing couch and can't move...I"m not even motivated enough to finish this blog...i keep getting distracted with silly things...

I DID manage to do may taxes before April 16th this year, but I'm very disappointed in the refund I'll be getting. But, after I file my 2009 taxes (yeah, I know) I'll have a nice little bit of cash to put into savings, should I ever need to catch a flight out of town.

I also ate meat...on day 5 (the superbowl and a certain boys 25th birthday). I ate bacon wrapped chicken covered in hot sauce...It tasted fine, but I feel guilty...

What else...OH! I'm going back to Montana. I know you are all surprised.

That's all for now...off to bed I go!

Two Thousand Fucking Twelve

Happy new year, fellow bloggers and blog readers!

It's been a few months...lots has changed...but I won't bore you with the details, here's the cliff notes:

-i really like my job
-i rescued a dog
-i got a new car
-i like a boy
-i really like myself

So, it's a new year which means new resolutions...this year, in addition to forgiveness and love, I've added motivation and focus...which i'm now initiating...this first day of february, 2012.

In addition to these inspirational words, i've decided to make a new resolution every month...January flew by so...I'm starting today!

This month, I vow to:

-Take the stairs, always
-Not eat meat, because I've realized I want to know where my food is coming from
-Focus on training this beast of a dog that I love more than anything
-Save money

I'm also going to have breakfast every Saturday morning out in public, whether it be with my favorite boy or by myself. I've realized that I would much rather spend my Friday and Saturday nights in and enjoy my Saturday and Sunday mornings NOT hung over, with great company or a book, and a great cup of coffee and just enjoy being alive.

I'm also going to say "NO" more. So don't take that personally....I often get invited to go somewhere or to do something that I don't want to do because i'm too tired or don't have the money for so, I'm just going to say no. AND not feel guilty about it.

Also, i'm going to blog more...but I still hate that word...blog...blah....ggggh
