Procrastination

pro·cras·ti·na·tion

To defer action; delay: to procrastinate until an opportunity is lost.

 

 
This in a nutshell is me. Now don't get me wrong I am on time when it comes to appointments, but I can never get anything started. Take for example ebay. I want to sell, make money and have fun doing it, but I keep putting it off. I'm sure it has to do with fear of failure or putting in a lot of time and getting nothing out of it. Now I know the old saying of, “how do you know if you don't try” and believe me I get this. So this weekend I am giving myself a goal. I will pick out at least three items to clean, take pictures of and sell. You have to start somewhere and I just need to dive in no matter what. I mean whats the worst that happens, no one wants my stuff. So this is me getting out of my head about this and just going for it. Gotta go pic out some items and put them up for sale and boy do I have plenty to choose from.

Happy New Year

Wow where did 2011 go?  Perhaps I blinked to long, but in any case I am glad for a new year and a fresh start.  I decided to make myself a few New Year Resolutions so here goes.

Drink more water  ( I am so very bad at this)
Start eating more fruit and veggies (boxed food is really not good for you)
Take more pictures
Do at least 3 unassisted pull ups...at the moment I can do zero
Read at least five books...don't think I read a one this past year

Lets move on to breakfast shall we.  This morning started off with a pot of French Vanilla New England Ground Coffee.  I love this stuff its very rich, has the perfect amount of vanilla flavor and is overall the perfect way to start off ones day.  With my coffee I made scrambled eggs for me and the husband and enjoyed myself an orange on the side. See I am determined to start the year off right with fruit and veggies.

After breakfast I got myself together and took care of some laundry.  I just got back from an extended weekend in Ohio and things really did pile up around here.  After that me and Pepper decided to go for a quick walk.  I mean like fifteen minutes if that kind of walk.  The wind is blowing here and its only 34 outside, very cold weather for the south.  After our supper fast walk I decided to make lunch.  Lunch ended up being a salad with shrimp on top, very yummy.

See I am already taking care of some of those New Year Resolutions already.
