Stuff Gets Done.

I sometimes wonder what I'm going to say next... is that common? We all go about the course of our day with no idea in which direction it will go. Most of us are more guarded as we grow older... until sometimes we tend to harden ourselves too much. You may know some people like that.. I was heading in that direction, but am trying to put a stop to it.  I am not sure what the male equivalent of "old cat lady" is... but it's not what I want to be.  besides... I am not a big fan of having indoor cats, anyway.  I realize there is still much left in life to explore, so even though I might not get around to delving into a whole lot of exploration, I have made it a choice to be open and optimistic.. but being smart about it all.

I am not exactly certain how Christmas is going to go yet, but I'm working on a few contingency plans since that lottery idea seems to have fallen through.... and I'm not cut out to be a Deuce Bigalow...  I am finding it much easier to have faith that things will work out since I've gone back to church. It's not that I'm being inducted into the ideology that they have... as it is much different from how I was raised... I am finding myself more open-minded about a lot of things... more accepting. The fact that my negative thoughts are being blogged elsewhere, away from anyone knowing... well, that helps a lot.. who would have known!

I am taking half a day off today... I was going to take the whole day off, but I have too many things to catch up on.. and taking a whole day just puts me farther behind. I have a bit of stuff I have to get in before my guests arrive. It's funny, but I don't worry about how others perceive me nearly as much anymore. I still like to be respectful enough to others to make any time spent with me an enjoyable one.. It's not like a get a whole lot of company, but I'm thankful for any visitor that shows up. It is a bonus when it's someone other than my dad...  He is the only person that still feeds my negativity.. but for the most part I can easily deal with it.

I've done a little Netflix binging.. I've spent a little time on World of Warcraft.. but I'm also keeping up with most of the other things I need to do here at home, so I haven't allowed one thing to monopolize my time. I feel really good about that. It seems more and more easy to make certain I have completed the tasks I need to do. I also haven't been spending any time on the sites, which has added to my productivity. It's a bit different in my life now than it has been in quite awhile... stuff gets done.
