Just more stuff

1. I usually love Christmas. I am usually the first to put my decorations up and send cards and be all excited for Christmas to come. This year was different. I still did everything I normally do- but not with as much.....I don't know, enthusiasm. (Think the crazy Target lady from the commercial! That's how I used to be!) I don't know if it is becausae the kids are older? Oh well- it all went fine. I just hope next Christmas my heart is in it more.

2. I can't wait to get back to work next week! Don't get me wrong, I like having the breaks off. It's great!! Especially weeks like this week- the kids are back in school and I am still off! WHOOT!

3. I don't feel as productive when I am not "working"- I put the "" around working because i meant it as working for money! Not working around the house like we all have to do. Sure- I have dishes done, floors vacuumed, laundry done- but it feels weird.....

4. How bad is it that I clock watch all day and pray that time goes S-L-O-W until 3:00? LOL!

5. I would like to be able to enjoy a glass of wine without getting buzzed. I LIKE wine. After one glass, I am buzzing. I hate the feeling of a buzz or being drunk. It used to be a great feeling- when I was younger. Now, I just want to feel totally in control of myself at all times.

6. There are some great blogs that I read and look forward to. Wish I could write like that. I used to be so creative (and funny too!) when I was younger.

7. Looks like I was AWESOME when I was younger! LOL!

8. I love watching The People Court, Judge Judy...etc.

9. I'm thinking about getting botox. I don't mind the thought of aging gracefully- I just don't wanna look old. Well- wait- I guess I don't mind looking old...eventually. Okay- I just want this damn wrinkle on my forehead GONE!

10. I don't toot my own horn much- but have to admit that I am super proud of the weight loss I have had. I am not one to usually have willpower. Last year, Murf and I did a food lifestyle change. I lost 50 pounds. I had 17 more pounds till goal when the Holidays came around. I ended up gaining 5 pounds. So- now I am 22 pounds to goal. I'm okay with that. The weight loss is slow going- but it's not really a diet. It's more of making better eating choices, eating LESS, and moving more.

11. No one reads this blog but me. That's okay with me. I don't advertise that I have one. Heck- if I wasn't me, I prolly wouldnt want to read it either! LOL!

12. New Years Resolution- I don't generally make them. Last year, I decided to make one. It was to not cut any length off my hair for the year. Anyone who knows me, know that is difficult for me. I always WANT to grow my hair out. But give up and get it cut. I love getting new hairstyles! My family gave me till March. I made it all year. Guess what? I'm going for another year. Don't worry- my hair grows SLOOOOWW. I won't have Loretta Lynn hair! LOL!

13. This year, I would like stop cussing so much. My mouth has been terrible! So- that's what I'll work on.
