Ok, here I go. Diving in head first.
1). I am not a morning person.
And even more than that, I am a person who requires a lot of sleep. I would love to feel rested and not always be exhausted, but I don't. And it drives me NUTS! Because I want to be rested and energetic, ready to take on the world everyday. And sometimes I do wake up feeling that way and make it all day long, go go go. But more often than now, I am slow slow slow. It is really annoying. It drives me nuts.
Hello friend.
2). I can't keep a room clean for more than a few days at a time...
Which is SO ANNOYING!!! It is completely baffling to me how I can spend hours and hours picking up and cleaning a room, only to have it be a complete mess again a few days later. How do bombs go off that quickly?
3). I LOVE potatoes.
In any way shape or form. French fries, baked, hashed, with cheese, without cheese, you name it. I want it. I would eat a potato in some form for every meal of the day! Why can't I love something healthy, like broccoli? I like broccoli, but I would get really sick of it all day every day. But not a potato. Yum. Ok now I need to go find some french fries.....
4). The older I get, the more easily I get overwhelmed.
I handled stress much better when I was younger. And the sad part is, I'm not exactly old. But, I feel like I get overwhelmed and stressed out by less the older I get. And is so annoying! Because I used to be able to handle 1800 bouncing balls, no problem. And I still juggle a lot, but it's not the same. And we haven't even thrown kids into the mix yet. Maybe this is the universe telling me to take on less, who know. But I hate that I can't handle the world, all of the time, anymore. It really drives me nuts.
This is what I feel like when I am overwhelmed.
5). I can't keep a plant alive to save my life. Or its life.
And I've tried. Believe me, I have tried. I like plants. And flowers. And would love to have them around; they are pretty, happy and cheerful. We have a great area for hanging plants on our deck. But I don't even try. Because they will inevitably die.
Poor flowers. This is what always happens.
I too am a plant killer, but that doesn't really bother me because I'm not much of a plant lover. I am also obsessed with potatoes - this definitely annoys me when I'm trying to diet!
ReplyDeleteMy control & anxiety issues that I put on my 5 list definitely get worse as I get older, and it's SCARY!
Ugh, I hear ya! Doesn't getting older suck? Acupuncture has helped me some, because I am horrible about taking care of myself. Hence the eating potatoes, needing to diet, stress cycle starting all over again! LOL
ReplyDeleteOne and five are totally me too. I am so glad I am not the only constantly exhausted non morning person plant killer out there!
ReplyDeleteStopping by from the SITS girls spring fling! This is such a cute blog!
So many of these things are me too! And completely annoy myself :P The only differences are I can keep a plant alive (sometimes I am just not interested to though) and I could keep a room clean (before I had kids, now not so much!).
