My Life

Or better name "just me talking about myself all the time"...which, if you already know me, happens a lot. This should be easy...right?

So today is the first day of my temporary retirement. The list of things to get done in the next month is long, yet I find myself wanting to just sit and appreciate this feeling....and do NOTHING. What's wrong with me. I must still have the frame of mind that I need to plan each and everything I have to do in order to accomplish them around my work schedule. Having no work schedule is freaking me out. Other than periodic days off and vacations, I've worked with no breaks for the last three years. Wierd.

So what the hell do I do. The packing and cleaning that has to be done is a given.....but when that gets boring, what the hell do I do? I do have some knitting that I'd love to get done. I'm working on a beautiful throw. I was knitting to relieve stress....? Wow....what a concept. I have a dozen books that I've wanted to read but put aside because I know that once I get involved, putting them down would be near impossible. See.....the list of what I "want" to do is so much longer the list of things I "have" to do. ack!!!

Totally made Walt watch the Kardashian marathon again yesterday, and the season opener last night. Why am I so suddenly interested? Reality tv hasn't been my thing until recently. Shout out to Shannon....it's ALL your fault LOL I foresee a lot of tv hours in my future. It's been a long time since I stayed awake past 9pm.....this could be interesting.....Kim is my favorite although Khloe makes me laugh. Did I really just say that??? Oh Boy!

New product I've tried that I received last week. Wen Hair Care. I used it once, and my hair felt soft and amazingly clean. (since the product does not bubble up like shampoo) I didn't feel like I needed to wash it yesterday because it still felt very clean, and I had it up in a hair scrunchie anyway. Will use it again today.....update later.

My Zumba should be here by tomorrow. That's going to be my daily workout from here on out. Now that my routine is new, I think I need to do something to help supplement my new eating routing. Weight Watchers was so easy when Walt and I were eating all our meals together. New challenges. I'm up for it. Zumba is ANOTHER infomercial purchase. I swear I'd buy anything as long as it was involved in a catchy commercial. Maybe in another blog I'll do a review of the numerous other products I've purchased off the television.

I've been considering starting a dog walking business once we get to Las Vegas. I know....that's NOTHING like what I've done for the last 20 years.....but no stress and I get exercise. I'm going to look into it, and research revenue possibilities and benefits. If not that, I'll just get a job at a doggie daycare. I'm all for a job that has less stress.....we'll see how I accomplish that....I live for stress......

random thoughts for today: retirement.....is the hype really that great?; morning tv.....disappointing; I miss Walt....this too shall pass LOL......;allowing myself ONE day of relaxation before the real fun begins; friends....couldn't live without them; arranging my day around watching Judge Judy LOL; imagining life in Vegas....easy....; I actually miss not getting ready for work....will this pass too???; how did I life without my Kurieg in the past?; going back to sleep.......ah the choices.

So that's it's for now....with all this time to choose what to do with should take me a day or so to figure out.....I'm sure I'll be posting here a lot more.....watch out.....

Peace Out....B
