It seems like a big list - but it's totally doable. Most of that stuff I do already, just not all the time. I discovered that I actually like going to soccer practice, sure my feet hurt, but it's nice to get better at my mad soccer skills and bond with the girls. It's not as fun as a game, but more fun that I thought it was going to be!
I work on my blog all the time, this way I can complain about anything I want and you choose if you read it or not. Besides, I just love to share my opinion with others. Especially when my opinion is that someone, other than me, is a jackass! You already know that I'm a jackass, but a lovely one!
I have been taking my camera everywhere with me. I found that I am so mad when I see something that I'd love to photograph and I don't have my camera. I took a great shot of my nephew at my Grandma's funeral. His Mom will be so pleased when she sees it. I also just looked over my November shots and I have a good few that I can use. I still haven't even looked at watermarking my pics on the Mac, but I am sure it can't be that hard. (I love my Mac and I find it works very well for me!)
The kids think I am awesome, so I guess I just have to keep doing what I am doing there. One of my daughter's classmates waved to me today, I was in the car, she was in the backseat and he couldn't see her. She was a bit mad. She asked how he could possibly know me, I gently reminded her that I go on every field trip they have and I am at the school ALL THE TIME! The kid has probably seen me at least 50 times! I am very active with my kids schooling, it makes me feel good and the kids still love to see me there. Volunteer - it's worth it! (just a little plug there for volunteering, not enough people do it and it is really a lot of fun)
My husband also still likes me, so I can keep doing what I am doing there too. I always try to do what I can for him to make sure he knows that I care. I also got him a Christmas present that he will LOVE! I try not to yell at him, come to think of it, we barely fight anymore. I'd say we've fought enough for 3 marriages and now we are in the plateau phase. He thought that was bad, but I explained to him that we are good to each other, we are happy and that is a great place to plateau. Of course any gesture above that is welcome, like a "will you remarry me" proposal. I really just want to wear my wedding gown again, or go to Vegas!
So far I am doing really well with most of that stuff. The key, I think, is to cut back the napping, and then I'll get a lot more done. But I am working on it. I am going to acupuncture to help, and I just have to tell myself that I can wait until bedtime. What's your addiction? Mine is sleeping, ice cream and diet Pepsi - you wanna make something of it?
So that's it - 2012 is the year of getting the shit together. You can join me if you want. I think that I get better every year and I hope that this next year is even better. I have a great life and I just have to remember to remember that! If I can just keep on top of all the things I am doing and the things I want to do, maybe I'll come back as a hot, nice, rich girl in my next life!
