what i've been doing..only not.

there have been plenty of times where i've gone MIA from this blog and i will pop in all happy like - ohh, let me fill you all in on what i've been doing while i've been gone!! - this isn't that post.

this post is a recap of things that i have not  been doing while i've been gone...

01.  i have not been organizing my basement so that i can flood this blog with beautiful "after" photos.
02.  i have not been regularly updating my project: 365 blog with the pictures that i AM taking each day.
03.  i have not been dancing!  tomorrow marks the beginning of Lent and i plan to make it a goal to dance dance!
04.  i have not been going through my movie collection and downsizing the massive amount of DVD's that have taken over my living room.
05.  i have not started reading any new books.
06.  i never did get my photo an hour completed for january.
07.  i have not been doing my dishes daily and that has sometimes  resulted in a messy sink.
08.  i have not gotten a much needed/wanted haircut.
09.  i have not yet registered the demon for high school - and by not doing so have missed the deadline for the cheaper fee!  
10.  i have not been going to bed early enough.

whew, that's a lot of failure!  

however, what i have  done is spend more time offline in the evenings. 
i have had heart to heart conversations with the demon. 
i have a wonderful plan in the works for valentines day.  
tonight we have plans to enjoy fat tuesday and pig out at red lobster.  
we have been watching movies and catching up on our DVR'd shows.  
we had a crazy fun game night and a weekend spent with the beast.  
i have been laughing and i have been having serious moments of happiness. 
we have had milkshakes, ice cream and frostys!
i have taken nap after nap after nap...and have enjoyed every second of sleeping in on the weekends.
i watched a scary movie with my brother and screamed and laughed loudly all at the same time.
i have consistently worked on changing my mindset.  i am doing my best to be positive every.single.day.

life isn't all that bad right now.  so.. while there is a ton of stuff on my to do list that i've ignored in order to take that glorious nap.. i'm not letting it bother me.  this blog will still be here tomorrow.  the house can stay messy one more day.  i want to live in the now with my family and that's exactly what i'm doing.
