With that said, it doesn't mean I don't have goals for the new year. It's just that I don't want to look at it it as "I am only doing this because the last two digits whenever I write down the date has changed." More like: "I need to lose weight and get in shape. So that's what I'm going to do."
Last week, great things were happening to the people around me. Very recently, one of those great things took a terrible turn for the worst. I just don't understand. People can be absolute saints and still shitty things will happen to them. And yet complete scum of the Earth live the good life. It's not fucking fair.
And I know it's a tease, but I can't really go into the details. But I feel good about that above paragraph. Just needed to vent it.
So as to not be a downer, let's try to end on some positive vibes:
*I am really liking my job
*I saw my dad this past weekend and I feel like we are getting closer. I really like it and I only wish it would have happened long ago.
*I will show up for work on Christmas Day, then come home and put some clothes in a suitcase, maybe get a few hours of sleep, then by Sunday evening I will be in South Dakota with my family. I can't wait. I need to be there.
I know how you feel about the good guys always finishing last. I'll tell you what my husband told me, "It's the people who always do everything right that can handle it and it will make them better."
ReplyDeleteYeah - in life we take the good with the bad. Lucky for me, 2010 has be an okay year - yeah, I still have a shitty job, but my family is all healthy and alive.
ReplyDeleteI know this doesn't compare to other people's REAL problems, but I'm pretty mad that I'm sick during the build up to Christmas. I feel like I'm no fun to be around because I'm coughing up a lung and blowing my nose. It's not pretty! But I'm feeling better today! Yay! (Also, my photos this week suck because I've been so sick I haven't been up for going on any photo taking adventures).
That's cool about your dad - it's good to see family over the holidays, and I think it's nice that you're feeling closer. You're still young enough to continue that trend.
well said mr. o
ReplyDeleteI love you. We've discussed this. And if you want to lose weight, you can totally do it. I did! Seriously go for walks with an iPod. Go for an hour and go as far/fast as you can in an hour and do it every day. Seriously. If I can do that shit so can you. PLUS then you can make me walking playlists. And I'll make you one. It'll be a challenge. ;)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have safe and awesome travels. Bummed I won't get to see you, but next time. And I'm glad you're getting closer with your dad. It's always different as you get older. I think parents see their kids differently and vice versa.
