If I Could Have Three Wishes

 

          If I could have three wishes is something I have dreamed about often LOL First wish would be for perfect health for me and my kids. Second wish would be being rich of course. Having all the money I need to pay off everything and then buy anything we needed or wanted. They say money can't buy you happiness? I want to test that theory out LOL. The third wish is tricky because the first two were awesome. Hmmm okay third wish would be world peace :) It would be nice to not have any fighting going on in the world.

          I made it through the work weekend. My back is killing me, but I am done for another four days. It is beautiful Spring weather and my grass is growing so my lawn is once more green. I am enamored by that LOL. I just planted it seven days ago.

What Languages Do I Speak

 

          The languages I speak are English and that's it LOL. I have been trying to learn Spanish, but not succeeding. I read it better than I speak it. I can form simple phrases that maybe a toddler would use LOL it gets my meaning across to patients LOL. I cannot understand when it is spoken to me. The accents mess it up. Just like we have Southern accents, New York accents, Boston Accents, Midwest accents, Hispanics have their own accents that throw me off. If I could just have subtitles below them I could get it LOL. At one time, when I was in high school, I could speak French. I was quite fluent, but then I never used it, so I forgot it. It seeps through to my Spanish (both are Latin based) and messes it up. My kids, however, are learning Spanish and doing very well.

          Off to work again. At least this is a minimally shorter weekend LOL it is time change, so I work one hour less LOL. It is not much, but mentally it is awesome. Spring appears to be officially here!!! I was able to plant my grass seeds and it rained. So hopefully I will have grass soon. In the backyard I can already see baby grass. 

          March is a busy month this year. Next week is St. Patrick's Day and on the 31st is Easter. Yesterday I made Irish Soda Bread that came out perfect. We are eating Irish this week LOL. Celebrating our heritage. No clue what we are doing for Easter. It will be very low key since it will be singular day off amid six on. I am taking a mini vacation next month and the price of it is working back to back for two weeks. It is gonna be rough but worth it.

Three Good Habits I Want to Have and Three I Don't

 


Three good habits I would like to develop this year are:

Get outside more. Go walk the dog, walk around neighborhood, go to SeaWorld, go to Aquatica. Getting outside means enjoying life more.

Drink more water. Staying hydrated helps with skin and wrinkles, brain function, digestion, and energy.

Take better care of me. Eat healthier, exercise more, take my vitamins, don't feel so stressed all the time.


Three bad habits I want to get rid of this year:

Late night snacking. I need to get control of that. I do great all day, then bam! 9pm hits and I get the munchies.

Taking so many naps. I spend more hours asleep in a day than I do awake. I wish I knew why I was so tired all the time.

Ordering out when I am tired. I tend to do this more on the weekend when I am working. It is bad for my bank account. I need to plan better for when I work so that not tempted to just order food in. I would save so much money.

Things That Annoy Me

 

          I try to not get annoyed too often, it is bad for my health. The only times I really cannot control it are when I am driving. Then it drives me crazy when people do not follow the rules!!! People who go to slow, or don't pay attention. People who cut me off, people who force themselves into the lane, people who speed, people who tailgate, and people who speed through school zones. So many times I wish a cop was nearby to see the drivers and pull them over, but they never do. Drives me bonkers. In my opinion, if I have to follow the rules, they so should they.

          That is another thing that annoys me, people who do not follow the rules. Rules are there for a reason. When people feel as if the rules do not apply to them, I get upset. There is no real accountability these days for fear of offending somebody, so people get away with so much. It is no wonder the country is all messed up.

          Okay, that got my blood pumping LOL now back to relaxing. I have my coffee, the back door open, fans blowing, and it is my dog's 6th birthday. I am hoping for a good day. I got my grass seed out yesterday so I just need it to rain as forecasted. I have a craft project for St. Patrick's Day and teriyaki chicken to make for dinner. I have been doing great getting in my steps, and the saffron seems to help with late night cravings??? At least that is what I am trying to convince myself LOL.

Where Do I See Myself in Six Months

 

          In Six months it will be August, so most likely I will be going cray from the Florida heat. I will also most likely be watching the weather for any hurricane forecasts LOL. We did not have any hit last year, but we definitely did the year before. It was amazing. The streets were flooded, I lost part of my fence, and a bit of water came up into my hallway from underneath. I did not like any of that. If it wasn't for the destruction I would have loved it. Extreme weather is fun to me. I also like how it makes people come together for the experience. People talk to strangers about the storm and what is going on, they watch it together, it brings people together in a weird way.

          What else is happening in August? Staci will be getting ready for 10th grade and I will be having a nervous breakdown about her growing up too fast. She will be 15 and studying for her driving permit. My car insurance is going to skyrocket.  I am hoping by August that both her and me will have a tan because we are enjoying Aquatica LOL by then we will also be planning our Autumn activities. Most of all, in six months I want me and my kids to be healthier and happier than we are today.

What's My Zodiac Sign?

 

           I was born in December, so my sign is Sagittarius. It is supposed to be a fire sign, but I do not think I am fiery. I am rather calm. Looking at what it says my traits are, I was born wrong LOL I do not explore, not into having adventures other that reading or watching them, I definitely do not travel, and I like routine LOL. I guess I am an atypical Sagittarian. It is a good thing I do not follow astrology LOL it gets me wrong every day. According to them I should have been married long ago, successful, and rich LOL. Nope, none of the above happened. At this point in my life, I would settle for just being rich :)
