My computer crashed over the weekend... I had no idea how dependent I was.
I might need AAA...or wait, I think I have that already...
So, I guess I am a computer junkie after all.
The shame.
What else is bringing me to shame as of late?
*I wish on a daily basis that Starbucks delivered coffee to homeschooling mamas who could use that little pick me up.
*I wish on a daily basis that I could just hire a maid. Just once. To start me at ground zero again.
I confess that I feel like I am climbing an uphill battle on house cleaning lately and have revolted a little by not doing it as much. I should be meaner. I should yell more. But instead I just stopped picking up everyone else's messes to say to them I am not your maid. But unfortunately, no one else in this house speaks mom.
I should feel grateful that I can be home with all these wonderful mess making monsters instead of wishing for a maid. That makes me feel guilty and a little indignant all at once.
* I have been slacking on getting in my daily exercise. I know it and I want it, I just am not doing it.
I took a little companion with me yesterday to give it a go. We got half way down the hill from our house and she red faced and sweaty asked if we were done now.
I called for a ride home....Gosh she has the cutest butt ever though.
*while I am on the subject of being more active, I might as well throw in eating right.
I feel bad that lately, I often think it would be so much easier to eat only what I plan to if I didn't have to feed anyone else. I want to be that mom who makes a cake just because it's Monday....I just wish on Tuesday, at around eleven in the morning...I wasn't the mom muttering "damn Monday cake" as I decided I must have a piece.
*I am that mom who hides in her own closet for a moments peace...
who should probably be painting my toe nails instead of writing this random post.
Did you see my instagram last week that I took when I looked down and realized that they were pretty bad...and I should have felt embarrassed. But I just didn't care. I was too tired. I had too many other things to care about that day. It was that bad.
*Maybe I wouldn't be so tired if I stopped staying up every night watching Mad Men. Can I tell you that part of this latest obsession, is that the hot secretary of the office has a bigger butt than me? She's gorgeous. But still. Does that make me a bad person, that that brings me a little peace? I was so born to the wrong century.
Except, I guess that this century has computers, and that was what I started this whole post about in the first place...hence the instagram use....which did not require my computer for getting photos from.
I have a small stack of items that I planned on adding to the shop this week...but all the photos are waiting for me on my own computer. I might get desperate and have to retake photos.
I really am embarrassed at this new found thought of how dependent I have become on that computer.
I think my jig is up.
gotta run.
Thanks for the little fix. ;)
"Damn Monday cake" made me laugh! AHH! That's like champagne Thursdays, right? ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't know what Champagne Thursdays are! But I am going to find out ;)
DeleteJust reading the first few lines, I knew this was going to be an awesome post! My toe nails look like a hot mess too, and I suppose I should probably fix them since I can still reach them by putting them up on the toilet lid to paint them. Soon enough, even if I can still reach them at 9 months pregnant I'm sure I'm not going to care enough to want to. "Damn Monday Cake" certainly made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteI am also in the very bad habit of watching Mad Men in bed. I can't help it. And I recently got an iPad so now my Netflix is there and waiting for me to watch it all night long. Sigh. Poor me. Poor you. #boohoo
ReplyDeleteI would be a complete hot mess without my computer. I know it. I went without one for about a week right after Christmas and it nearly killed me! I hope you get it back soon!
ReplyDeleteAs for all the other stuff... ;) congrats on being human just like the rest of us! we could all use more time, more sleep, and lots more of christina hendricks. she is smoking hot. :)
