Well, a few reasons. After putting the kids to sleep I've been trying to spend more quality time with my husband and less time on crack, I mean the internet.
Another reason is, sometimes they say, if you don't have something nice to say...well, each night when I think of something to write about (which I have plenty), I always talk myself out of it because, I'm so tired of looking at negatives.
My final problem is...whiners. Whine, whine, whine. I put up with whining all day from my daughter and then I have to put up with it with my real life friends too. I know everyone has issues and problems, but seriously, does it have to overcome your life? Do we all realize how fortunate we are! The fact that you are even reading this on a computer shows that life ain't so bad.
That comedian that was on TV a few months ago who said, "everything is amazing, yet no one is happy", I feel like screaming that from the top of my lungs every single time I get on the internet and read status updates. "UGH, I hate getting up at 8am for my stupid job...ughhh". You have a freaking job! Congrats!
Anyhoo...as I close this ironical post....bitching and bitching....let me say. Go hug a loved one or a tree, tell the people around you to get out of their funk and please, for the love of God, do something nice for someone else instead of constantly looking inward.
I know I have no room to talk but for the past 2 months I've been trying my best to crawl out of the hole of funkiness that I allowed myself to jump into in Miami. I'm back where I want to be and it's time to make myself happy.
One of my favorite quotes (or sayings, whatever) is that everyone is in the exact situation they want to be in right now. If you truly wanted to be somewhere else in your life you would be there already. True. Think of ANYTHING you want, (besides to have control of the world) and you can have it, but the path to get there may be hard...so instead, we bitch and whine about how we can't have it. boooooo.
I'm trying to extend these life lessons to children in the next few weeks. I'm tired of being their servants. The time has come for them to get a little tougher and do things on their own. Example. This morning my son wanted his sip cup. It was on the counter. He could reach it but instead he just chose to point and grunt. My first reaction was to grab it and give it to him, but I stopped, turned around and kept doing what I was doing. TEN minutes of screaming and pitching a fit and he finally grabbed it himself. I don't want lazy children.
And on that note, I'm going to clean my house and then go to the park. Because, I want a clean house and to smell the air.
