I used to blog more often when I had things to complain about. I still largely like to write when I have serious frustrations to vent...but then I noticed a sad result of this trend: that I missed chronicling all of the great things that were happening in my life.
So I tried to write when I had happy things to report and wanted to celebrate and remember. Well, in case you haven't noticed, I haven't blogged in 6 months and it HASN'T been for all the JOYful things I've forgotten to share or that I'm so bust enjoying life that I forget to blog. The one positive thing in this is that I have broken the negative blogging pattern apparently, because the biggest reason for my non-blogging is that I DON'T want to write when I'm just going to complain. BUT, a quick recap before the impending End of the Year survey that I am DREADING...
I dislike EVERYTHING right now and I feel terribly like Scrooge McDuck. I do not even LIKE Christmas or winter time. I do like getting presents, I only occasionally like giving presents (because I don't like feeling pressure to do gifts just because its a particular time of year. I'd rather buy you a present when I just happen upon something that is just "perfect" for you any old time of the year!)
There's that...now, these are the positive things I DO like to try and balance out the grouchiness:
Twinkly lights
Icicle lights
Nutcracker
Ballet
Tutus
Flannel sheets
Sleeping
Scarves
Heat
Shopping
Blue Powerade
Cookies
Cupcakes
Glitter
Barberitos
Twins
That's all right now. And there aren't many of those things in my life right now.
