Weekly Musings of the 3rd

 

You know I said I don't do resolutions and for the most part I don't but I got to thinking.  I know that could be dangerous (ROTFL) and looking back over the year past I see where things got hard or I felt bad and I saw they were times when I thought I wasn't doing enough, being enough, doing the right thing for us, or buying the right thing.  Yes, those thoughts are there nearly constantly in our youth and tend to get less and less as we get older but I think the devil whispers doubt in what we know is what works for us in order to get us to doubt ourselves.  When we doubt ourselves, well, then we have to figure out how to change stuff and get whatever is missing.  I did that from time to time, a lot less but still enough to mess me up.  

My resolve this year and the years to come when that happens I will tell myself I am doing just fine, I eat well, and walk regularly and stretch regularly as well.  I use just the right products that work for me and I love the clothes I wear, the shoes I get and the things we enjoy.  I can relax and stop doubting and embrace joy.  

LOL, I know lots of deep thoughts on a Friday morning but hey, that is what a blog can be for, from time to time.  I was looking a one of the chatting platforms that I tried


last year, and nope I don't like it, I like messenger, I like blogger and I use facebook in order to let friends and family know stuff.  I don't have to use other stuff, sure some have fun things but I don't like spending hours and hours on stuff.  I love reading, crocheting (my hands allow me to once more), using my coloring app while watching tv and stopping by my computer early morning and then I am done with screen time and that keeps me happy.  

Now, that little rant that will remind me this year not to go off on little journeys thinking I am missing something or need to add stuff.  Yeah, I need to put things in a blog so I don't forget, cause I do that a little more often now and that is okay too.  

This week with it's New Year Day in the middle made the middle of the week feel like Sunday and boy, did I have to tell myself what day of the week it was over and over - like now - today is Friday - LOL.  Because of that, today has become our cleaning day this week so time to get off the screen and get busy with cleaning up.  

Okay now this one just made me giggle and stop looking behind the curtain - LOL


 Have a great weekend!

  1. OMG! Laughing so hard at the "what's your plan?" thing! Last week at the dog park a young woman asked me what my plan was if my dog got attacked by another dog while there? Kicked my paranoia in big time. To be honest, I have no plan for such an event! Other than "do what I have to in the moment". I trust a lot on things NOT happening, don't we all?

    1. We sure do! I know I had never really thought about it until I saw this funny, then I thought how silly to really look. I don't think I would be running faster than they if it happened. Thanks for stopping by.
