  • Recharging or Just Lazy?

    Is it the planets? Is it because I did SO MUCH last year? Is it because I am over 50?

    I am feeling slowed down. I am not getting nearly as much done as I usually do. It seems to be this past couple of weeks I have hit some invisible inertia mud. I am slogging through stuff at an abnormally slow pace.

    It is annoying. Fortunately, what is important always gets done and the rest just waits for me to tend to it. I hope this phase passes soon. Bleh!

    My attention is scattered to new things going on. My precious pet pooch, Lola. For example. We take her everywhere. She likes a bunch of attention, but she is so worthy of it!

    My mortgage work is very busy. This is very good.

    My girlfriends are busy with their life and stuff. But we still manage to get together every so often. I love my girl time.

    My son is busy with his life, but we still catch up every couple of weeks for dinner or something.

    My daughter is still ignoring me. I love her.

     My mom’s house is in contract. Hopefully that ordeal will be over in less then two months providing nothing awful comes up in the inspections. I am exhausted just thinking about this but it is a very very good thing. There is no money coming out of this. Just removing that awful albatross from around my neck.

     

    Right now I am blogging when I should be doing some organizing here at home. Xanga is being particularly annoying as I try to save and edit this post. Keeping me from my chores that much longer. Sigh…

     

    I have a new room mate (two months or so now) that has become a pal and maybe more. We do all kinds of cool things together. Trips to the snow, to the city, to the coast. He is not from California, so everything is an adventure. AND I LOVE ADVENTURE!

     

    I believe that 2012 is going to be and is becoming a great year.That this is a Leap Year, giving us an ENTIRE day to enjoy and participate in this year of the Water Dragon, seems even more auspicious.

    I bought a used but very cool desk. That is one of the things I want to organize today. My room mate set it all up for me, but the area needs to be uncluttered. And some more organizing in my bedroom. In order to address my to do list I really should move away from my computer…but can I do it?

    Only if xanga lets me finish editing so I can post this darn deal…See this vicious cycle? Blame then denial leading to procrastination (that should be a country – Procrast Nation!), chores incomplete and a lazy weekend.

    There are worse things, I suppose…

  • Procrastination is something I’m quite accomplished at, unfortunately.  Well… I don’t think it’s unfortunate, necessarily, the opinion of others, however, seems to be vastly different.  

  • I think you have reached a passage in your life and for a while you may feel a little different but don’t worry. you will soon be comfortable with this new you. life is not a race, (I learned that not so long ago) and if you don’t get it done now you will get it done later or maybe it’s not so important to do it. now adventure! adventure is very important! don’t let that go.

    having said all that I want you to know I probably have no idea what the heck I’m talking about but I love you and it will all be okay. keep slogging.

  • It does seem like Xanga has been less user friendly lately.  I couldn’t get any of the pictures in this blog to load.

    Don’t worry about feeling a bit blah; it’s just a passing phase.  Granted, after 50 those passing phases last longer and happen more often but, if you get out on your mountain bike, you will feel like a ten year old again.  Guaranteed.

  • I can’t be bothered doing stuff either… it will still be there next week…

    hope 2012 is as good as you hope

  • Procrastinators: Leaders Of Tomorrow!
    I am a big fan of procrastinating… but I never put off adventures!
    Fingers crossed that 2012 is wonderful.

  • You are so much like me Cassie!  I love that! 

  • @fauquet - Oh Michel, so perfectly appropriate! xxoo!

  • It took 10itI tries to get my keyboard to come up so I can type a comment. Now I forget the brilliant and inspiring thing I was going to say. That feeling of some things coming together quickly and easily comes and goes for me. I wonder myself why some days I am Wonder Woman and (most) others I am a fish out of water, flopping and floundering. But I am happy to see you are at peace with it, and all the things going swimmingly well! I keep telling my boys, life just gets better and better. I would never want to go back! Having way too much fun. Glad you are, too.

  • so much going on and so little time. I hope that you are better than ever even if you are procrastinating or just recharging.   Taking time for you and relaxing is always a good thing for the health and well being

  • I redefined procrastination as feeling things out before I take the plunge. Risk taking/change at 45 is not the same as 35
