Grudges

Well Lori, I've been reading your posts. You are such a trooper! I can't promise that I will write as much as you have but I'll give it my best shot.

The Q and A journal today asks about grudges. I don't think I am guilty of holding grudges. I don't think so anyway. I know there are some things that are painful but I don't consider that a grudge. Maybe these are things we file away and react to that person or thing at a later time and that could be considered a grudge?

We are getting settled into our new place slowly but surely. I say this every time but I mean it this time! I am not moving again unless it is to the nursing home or to the funeral home. Mark my words! I don't know how we would've done it without Susie, Randy and Gordon's help.  Gordon spent two days here moving boxes putting together things and just moving nonstop both days. Grudges come to mind right now. I guess I have a grudge against me for things that I have hung onto and moved three times or more!  How two people could have so much stuff is beyond my comprehension.

Lori, regarding this blog, I feel like it's a look into your daily journal. I'm proud of you for sticking with it and I'm sure Diane is too. I don't know if I will be as faithful. Obviously I haven't been and it's not such a burning desire to me. So I love love love reading your thoughts and make no promise that I will be so involved. Just sayin'.

Since I read all your entries Lori, I will make a few comments here. I had to take notes so my feeble brain would remember!

I find the aging process just a little bit scary sometimes. But, it is what it is and we just have to keep moving forward (duh) I guess. I'm trying to get healthy stay healthy be strong and all that crap! Speaking of crap, I don't look forward to collecting anyone's poop but I know I could rally around the idea and do what needed to be done. Wouldn't be my favorite thing and I hope that it never happens. Please don't let it happen sisters!
As I sit here and watch the wind blow the snow off the roof in front of my window, I want to remind you, Lori, that you cannot speak to us about the cold. Susie has it worse than me.  I will probably hold a grudge if I hear you say it again!
I also have a problem with the electronics hogging up all my time, energy and interest! I try to set a timeframe to play but am not successful most of the time.  I love the games but I have always been terrible with timed situations. I sort of panic or some weird thing. If I had all day to come up words obviously I would come up with tons of really cool words - without even looking in the dictionary!
I do find if I play games or play on the computer too late then I cannot sleep. I have enough issues wish sleep so I have to shut it down by 830 or I won't sleep.
Lists.  Now you were talking right up my alley! I do make lists. I carry a little tablet around - always have my list of things to do, places to stop, numbers and models of things, etc.  I used to keep lists on my iPhone but haven't kept up with that very well lately. Sometimes it's easier to look at my little trusty notebook. Bottom line is I love my lists. It seems the only way I can accomplish things and it makes me feel very very good when I do accomplish things!
I love you my sweet Sissy girls!
