Can’t Sleep

What did I ever do before the Internet? My back has been aching all night and this is the second time I’ve been on here. Going to try going back to bed one more time. I’m going to be useless tomorrow if I don’t get at least a few hours.  I think that I need a new office chair. Maybe that’s the problem?? I’ve already tried the Yoga route a few hours ago. It helps a bit but not enough.

What I’m Thinking About Right Now

Is spring ever going to arrive. I no sooner get the driveway shoveled and we get more snow. And if the snow melts quickly it refreezes into an ice rink. Try shoveling snow on that!! Not in a good mood right now.

Watch What You Wish For??

This is a new concept to me. I have been reading absolutely EVERYWHERE that what you focus your attention on is what you will attract into your life. That means if you constantly think about how miserable your life is… you simply attract more of it into your life. Sure makes you start thinking about what you are thinking about on a daily basis doesn’t it! You might not be wishing for another mess to arrive on your doorstep, but apparently the Laws of Attraction will go looking for just that.

I’ve been thinking about all of this rotten weather that we have been having lately… have I been causing it lol?? Off to think about spring and then I will sit back and see what happens.

Your thoughts??

Giving it Up For 2008

If you had to cross one food item off your list for 2008, which would it be. I’m talking high calories here. The first thing that came to mind for me was brussel sprouts, but I did say high calorie though didn’t I. I guess potato chips could be something I REALLY don’t need. But darn, they sure do taste good! I have Pickled Onion flavored corn and wheat snacks that I brought home from England in October in front of me…  but I just read the calorie count and they are coming in at 67 calories a bag. I guess I can keep that variety. Yeah….

Now if I could only find chocolate cake with tons of frosting that would come in that low… I would be very contented right now lol…

Do I Need Help??

My daughter is always on my case about how disorganized I am while I am working. Unfortunately, I like all of my research material spread out where I can find it. Am I the only one who likes to work like this? If someone was to walk into your office… what would they see on your desk?? I can honestly say that mine is a wee bit messy at the moment, but the minute I finish this entry, I AM going to tidy it up.So, at the moment, in front of me is a ruler, a pen, a pencil, a hair clip, an emery board, a pedometer, a cup holding pens (which isn’t being used now that I think about it. A CD that isn’t in it’s container, my daughter’s candle holder which she broke… so why is it on my desk?? And lastly… my digital camera. Okay, so maybe I do need to learn some organization skills, but I honestly have used nearly every single one of those items today!! And I have two desks in my office. We won’t start on what’s on the other one. Let’s just say that I’m learning to paint in water colors for relaxation on the other desk. We shall just leave it at that. So, now it’s your turn. What is sitting on your desk??

And oh yes, if I went upstairs and looked at my daughter’s desk, it would have her computer and that’s it. Honest!

Quote for a Miserable Night

Happiness is the by-product of an effort to make someone else happy. Gretta Palmer

The wind is howling outside and I’m feeling a little bit miserable, but it suddenly occurred to me that there are other people out there who are probably even colder. Maybe I should take up crocheting scarves and mitts for the homeless.

Is It Too Early for Easter Candy?

Valentines Day isn’t even here yet, but I’m already seeing Easter Candy on the shelves. Do you think that it is too early or does it simply put you in the spirit? Me… I’m a holiday junky, so it doesn’t bother me a bit, but I’m sure that it annoys some people big time!!

*For Men Only – Product Build-Up

 You might have noticed that your hair is beginning to look dull and lifeless. It could be that you are suffering from product build-up. The gels you use, the pomades, even shampoos leave behind a nasty bunch of gunk that needs to be removed about once a month. That’s where clarifying shampoos come to the rescue. They strip out all of this gunk and restores your hair back to it’s original state… clean and healthy looking. There are lots of clarifying shampoos on the market and to make it easy for you, it will say so right on the bottle.

Note To Self

No negative thoughts. No negative thoughts… As soon as one appears, push it back down. I wonder just how many of these a person has in a day and why they are so easy to create. Shouldn’t positive thoughts be just as simple??

The Longest Cold in History

Don’t ask me why, but I first got this cold back in May (just after Mother’s Day) had it for a month and then thought that I was over it. Apparently not, the same cold (exactly the same symptoms) is back again. This is the week two and next Thursday we begin our holidays.  So that pretty much explains why I’ve been so quiet lately. Feeling like crap pretty much covers it. Now if I could get a few good night’s sleep, I just might feel a little bit better. But go to bed and the coughing kicks in. Not fun!
