For some reason I was ”sorta” ready to get back to work the day after TG. It’s probably because I do good with routine and following a schedule. This is not to say I have conquered being a major procrastinator and am always late. sigh. Being off for 4 days was lovely and I had the best weekend. So it’s kinda like an early New Years...I feel motivated, happy and organized.
And, December 1st is this week. I am ready! The start of the holidays, Christmas music, lights, cookies, making crafty stuff (my Mary 2011 card) and the tradition of Alex and me getting a real tree...usually in the cold at the boy scout lot.
So I’m thankful for:
• my cute new dog, Ash (we got her in Oct)
• the fact that Jim C (my ex) and I get along and be cool with each other.
• my son who is a wild cute little video gamer - yet, is wise beyond his years & just...gets it. Tho, he is a bit sensitive - yeah, like me! What kid lists the movie “The Pianist” as 1 of his faves since he was 8 or 9? and knows all the words to the Evita soundtrack.
• The fact that I have tix to TORI piano-songwriting-goddess AMOS in Chicago! and love her, and haven’t seen her in like 8 yrs, in fact the last time was at the Fabulous Fox - 2nd row dead center.
And what I’m not. Yes, I’m listing some negatives. cause it’s all a work in progress. everyday. never perfect. and never will be. But I’ll always have a ton of room for gratitude.
• my cute dog pees in the house.
• my sugar addiction. I eat too much sugar. And I love it. and prob always will.
• I’m still too sensitive...and still working on my overanalyzing. thx adhd.
• still am not offically ”working out” blah. Hate being lazy.
• stay up too late, then sleep in and don’t ever get to work early, which means I stay later.
