Blender Crazy

-
I am a real special individual. REAL special. I bought a new blender, but hadn't opened it yet. I bought all new kitchen appliances in black so I decided I would take the new blender back to exchange it for a black one. Something made me check the cabinet where old appliances go to die in dignity and there I found two other blenders! There was already one on the counter. And I just bought a single serve blender to take to work for on the spot smoothies. What the hell is wrong with me? Why do I keep buying new blenders? It's not that forgot I had a blender, but every time I see a new blender I want it. So now I have five blenders! That is excessive. I'm the same way about printers and alarm clocks. I am now up to 3 printers. Once it starts to act up and I see another one of sale I buy it. I think it is because I won't just go ahead and spend the money for what I really want. The first step is admitting that you have a problem. I have a problem. From here on out I am going to just bite the bullet and spend the money on what I really want instead of buying 3 and 4 different versions of the same thing. This is crazy!

I have friends who also have this problem. They buy the same shoes or the same style coat repeatedly.

What makes you crazy?




We'll just pretend there isn't a mini food chopper in there too. *hanging head in shame*

    Blender junkie!!! jk. I used to do that with clothing and shoes. I almost did it this season. I saw the cutest pair of shoes, then I stopped to think about why I liked them. Then I went and looked in my closet and saw I had two pair. I've become a big thrower outer lately. Recycling, donating whatever but get it out of my house.

    Holding head down in shame. I love the mini blender! I have the full size blender in the back of the car, and the smoothie blender back there so I can drop it off at Goodwill. I want to return the full size blender but don't have the receipt.

Goal Setting

-
Had my goal setting meeting with bosses. We are keeping the same goals as last year. I will still casually browse around for a job, but I feel relatively confident that I am safe - for now. Now, my goals for the summer include but aren't limited to: Get my apartment deep cleaned and redecorated Clear out storage unit Travel (even if locally) Take lots of photos: Do a neighborhood project where I shoot different blocks and neighborhoods each day.  Go to Brooklyn - a lot! Go to lots of free concerts Score lots of rush tickets to see Broadway shows Hit the gym, swim, walk, and bike Write, write, write! Get to one of those Korean spas I keep hearing about Stay on top of my pedicures and massages Watch plenty of sunrises and sunsets Get back to living a clean life Rediscover joy Go to the beach - a lot! Laugh - a lot! Get my finances in order Catch up on the magazines that have piled up Catch up on the books that have piled up Takes lots of relaxing baths Have f...

My baby has crossed the rainbow bridge

-
I know a few of your have been lurking here for years. So you know that I had a sweet little fur baby who I loved very much and who has moved with me from city to city since I've had her. It is with much sadness that I must report that my sweet girl was put to sleep to on Monday. She was getting up in age and had several medical conditions that warranted putting her to sleep. Her quality of life had deteriorated and I was no longer able to care for her the way she needed to be cared for. Her vet wanted her put down a while ago but because I have my issues with grief and abandonment I wasn't ready. I think getting therapy for the short time that I did was helpful with getting me over the hump to move forward. I know it was the right thing to do and she went so peacefully that it helped me know that I made choice.  I miss my girl. I look for her because we have never been apart for long periods of time. There are people who don't understand the connection that humans have to ...

Took a break

-
I have been so busy trying to keep all of the balls in the air. Then I got sick. I haven't been this sick in a while. My allergies turned into an upper respiratory infection and I am still coughing as I try to clear out my bronchial passages. I've also started juicing to help support the recovery and have lost 15 lbs. I haven't had much of an appetite, so I drink fresh juice from the juice bar to keep my energy up. I could definitely keep this up for a while then transition back into a pescaterian diet. Sick and tired of being sick and tired.
