I am sitting here waiting to blog about something. I was going to write about how I am not that thrilled for the coming holidays, a trend in my life that started more or less two years ago - but who wants to read about that, especially the day before one of the main events? I am supposed to make the yams. I do like yams. I should probably go buy the yams.
With snow on the ground and the temps in the teens my work has come to a halt. Most people would be thrilled to have my yearly routine...not much work in the winter - time for reading, writing, painting, etc. Whatever I want, right? Never mind the no-making-money factor. Well, I disappoint myself most everyday during the winter and it wears on me, but I haven't proven to really do much about it in the last several years. I sleep in longer than I want to, I get ready for the day way too late, I take too long to make meals - if and when I eat, and then I don't do a whole lot of nothing else. I try to hit the gym several days of the week to say at least I have done something. Oh, I make plans, lots of plans, lots of paintings in my head - it's just that nothing materializes and I don't ski, snowboard and living alone I have no people energy and I am thinking maybe it would be nice to have roommates. But that's not looking like an option at the moment.
My winters are full of potential and I just kill it over and over and over. Like a broken record, baby. Such a bad habit. I am thinking, pathetic.
I am sorry for your sad song. Keep in mind, holidays are enjoyed by a very small percentage of the population.
ReplyDeleteI love the honesty. I'm not excited for the coming holidays either. Starting yesterday. They just remind me of too many ways my life is different and I don't like it. I like my every day routine. I'm good at that. We both are.
