    I don't know why, but I am always shocked at the lack of etiquette shown by most people these days. I am guilty of it as well, but not nearly to the degree that I see even on a daily basis.

    Thank you for stopping by to read about Buddy :)

Learning Self-control

A lot of my shortcomings lead back to self-control, or my lack of. I feel that it has a great influence on many areas of my life. I was watching a show on Bravo titled Tabatha's Salon Takeover and she kept calling the employees "lazy and complacent." As I think of it I wonder if God looks at me and says the same thing. Lazy is bad enough being that it is only the act of being adverse to work or exertion. But to be complacent (Showing smug or uncritical satisfaction with oneself) also is terrible. I don't want to be proud of doing a half ass job. I often start out with the best of intentions. I will be focused and motivated for a small amount of time but quickly lose it. I have a very difficult time carrying out anything. Areas of my life that it affect are household, school, health, spiritual walk, and relationships.  As a mother I get so overwhelmed that the house is never done being cleaned. I feel like by the time I wash all the clothes, do the dishes, cl...

Barbwire

Going through a divorce is a painful experience in itself. There are also hidden barbs that prick and tear open your heart. They are things that a person would not consider to be something that would cause pain. Strung together they make an emotional barbwire.  One barb that tends to get me is pronouns. After being married for my entire adult life, I tend to use the term "we" instead of "I". I am so used to being part of a unit that my pronouns automatically became plural... and now that I am no longer part of a couple, I struggle to remember the correct pronoun. Each time it catches me off guard, I freeze, correct myself, then the barb catches. This is especially the case in the context of speaking about my girls.  My daughter, Elizabeth, was supposed to have an eye appointment this week. It would give information on what "we" should do to help her vision. The "we" caught me off guard. I have been separated since October, and yet I still str...

FlyLady...............Day 1

When I walk into a room that is cluttered and messy, I feel defeated and overwhelmed. My head spins and I don't even know where to start. I have always been this way. When I was a child my parents would send me into my room to clean, I would stand there for hours and not get anything done. To me, cleaning is an endless cycle. By the time I do clothes, clean the kitchen, and start on another room; I have to start all over again. I never have time to just de-clutter things.  I recently realized that Abbie does the same thing. I get so frustrated at her when she doesn't keep anything organized, she takes forever to clean, and she gets distracted. How can I yell at her for begin like me? I decided to try this new way of organizing and cleaning.  Today I got an audio book by a lady called "Sink Reflections" from the website of  FlyLady . (Check out her site by clicking on the name.) It seemed like she was talking about me and my life. My embarrassment and anxiety about h...
