The Tuesday Things – v3.25.08

I'm slowly coming to the realization that there's no point in loathing things that I can't change.  Therefore, future loathing lists will only contain things that I can work on to make better, mainly things about myself.  I'm shooting for a more positive tip and all around better nattitude, thanks Dr. Victorine.  So, without further ado, the list.

Today's loathes:

  • My horrendous habit of procrastination
  • The lack of focus I possess
  • Sunburn.  Must use sunscreen

Today's loves:

  • I have my health, a roof over my head, food in my belly and people who love me
  • Kiddo – the kid's just funny!
  • Mom – she relieves me of my Mom dutes every once in a while so that I can have…
  • A relaxing weekend out of the country with Lovey
  • Lovey – without whom I would very likely be in a much worse situation (not that I'm in a bad one now)
  • A four-day weekend in general
  • Future Mom-in-law – she is always looking out for us and enable us to have an awesome summer vacation
  • My friends spread far and wide
  • My stretchy yoga feeling
  • My Zumba sweaty feeling
  • Having almost completed this week's classwork
  • Four books I picked up at the library yesterday for casual reading this weekend
  • Buying cute new shoes for the wedding
  • Sirius 23 – Hair Nation

That's what I have for now.  I've got to get back to work.  So much to do, so little time.  2 days till vacation and 12 until it's once again time to fly.  HEP!

Las cosas de Martes en el diez y ocho de Marzo (or Things on Tuesday on March 18)

Yeah, three years of high school Spanish, living in Mexico for two years and being engaged to a fluent Spanish-speaker means I should speak more Spanish!  (Not just write it, where I'm pretty good.) 

Things that I loathe today:

  • freezing to death in the office
  • super-loud ringtones…it's work folks, put it on vibrate
  • not being able to see outside
  • false advertising
  • how quiet my phone is
  • PMS
  • my inability to come up with a topic that would sustain a blog on its own

And on the love side:

  • only 9 more days till mini-vacation
  • one full week of childless walking around the house nekkid (hooray for spring break and Mom!)
  • planning summer vacation – man I love the Keys
  • the plant on my desk that Lovey gave me for Valentine's day
  • Kiddo's funny stories and funny stories about Kiddo
  • yogilates or piloga, take your pick
  • an extra $60 coming my way
  • Don Omar, Daddy Yankee, Pitbull, reggaeton in general….yeah, I know, don't bother saying it
  • Lovey with a new position (hopefully, keeping my fingers crossed!)

Goooooooo, Tuesday!

Things on Tuesday – 311 edition – All mixed up

Sometimes, I like to think I'm funny or smart or original or something special.  Sometimes, I am.

So on with the things I loathe/love!

Loathe:

  • Fighting
  • Mold growing in the vent over my desk
  • Half-assed cleaning jobs of said mold issue
  • Paying more than $50 for an article of clothing that will never be seen
  • Still doing that same work over and over, getting rushed to finish it and then finding out I rushed for no reason
  • College classes with people who are NOT ready for college
  • My poor sinuses being such a train wreck

Love:

  • Making up
  • Claritin – my daily dose allows me to come to work, hooray
  • My boobs will look tremendous (not tremendous big, just tremendous beautiful) in my dress for the wedding
  • Haagen Dazs mango sorbet – by far the best mango flavored thing I've tasted since mangoes off the tree in the yard!
  • 4 days and counting remaining in class number one of way too many
  • Having a strong core.  Now if I could only get my upper body strength back.
  • 9 days till I can call Lovey an old man….yep, older by all of 9 months
  • 15 days till the plane ride!
  • A 4 day weekend
  • Kleenex with lotion
  • A week with more loves than loathes
  • New ideas that may get implemented

And that, my friends, is Tuesday. 🙂

Things on Tuesday – 3/4 edition

At 9:22am, things have already been rather odd today.

  • Having three nights of weird dreams every time we change something on the bed
  • The dream on the third night being so disturbing that I woke up crying
  • Bashing my knee while getting in the shower
  • Nearly falling down the stairs head first
  • The office smells like mildew
  • Only having a stuffy nose when I'm in the office
  • Manicurists that do a bad job
  • Only being treated like a part of the team when it's convenient

Things I love:

  • My new Crunch Pilates/Yoga video (thanks to trappedinthemindofinvsiblegirl for the inspiration)
  • Being able to lend a helping hand when it's needed
  • Opportunities when I can find them
