One of my favorite groups of all time is AEROSMITH I love them and I always have. They came to St. Louis this week and I was so bummed that I could not go. I really wanted to . Anyways, the reason why I say that is one of the songs I love by them is "CRAZY" I heard that song on the radio the other day and was thinking about how CRAZY my friggin life is right now. The problem is that I am so dang busy. I am seriously dying here. I can not believe how I am so busy and what the heck I have going on. All I know is that it is tons. I feel like I am barely hanging on. The song has nothing to do with what I have going on, but their music makes me SMILE and puts me in a HAPPY PLACE, and I was really thinking of what I can do to lighten my load!! I have been busy with a lot of things lately.
1. LEX'S SOFTBALL ( I can not figure out why this is highlighted sorry)- this is a crazy time and she is so busy. Not to mention that now is the time that we have to start getting her noticed by colleges. That is not an easy thing to do. We have sent out lots of emails, and recruiting forms. It is a lot!! We have been out of town for about 3 of the last 6 weekends and still have more to go. This next week she is headed to the BYU softball camp!! GO LEXY GO!!
2. SUMMER- Man seriously summer is a pain in the butt, I love having the kids home, but they always want to go somewhere and do something. I feel bad, but i do not always want to go, or have the time to go. Summer is just plain hard I think.
3- WORK - Man I have all my big shows coming up in 2 months exactly. I can not believe that they are so close. I have hardly anything done and am really having to get going on that. ahhhhhhh that is something I really don't want to do this year. GET IT TOGETHER MER!!
4. WORKING OUT- I am still working out all the time and really do love it. It is just hard to find the time in the summer to get it done. I hate going early in the am, but might (MIGHT) have to suck it up and go. Maybe if I get it out of the way early I can get more done in the day. It seems like I am getting further behind lately.
5- STAYING ON TOP OF THINGS- I really have to try hard to stay on top of all that i have going on. I need to keep the house clean, pay the bills, get projects done, clean my car, clean out my work space ( to get started on the mass production of #3), fix the kids playground, fix some landscaping. SERIOUSLY IT NEVER ENDS.
6. I JUST NEED TO BREATHE AND MAKE IT THROUGH THIS!!
ON ANOTHER NOTE...
I went to see a movie with my good pal Bec the other day and I was really struck by a quote in the little chic flick movie we saw (Ghost of Girlfriends Past) Mr. McConaugHEY said this...
"PAIN BEATS REGRET EVERYDAY OF
THE WEEK, AND ON SUNDAYS TWICE."
I loved that. I really have been thinking about my life lately with my personal struggles, my kids, my friends, my family, my work, and really want to try to not regret things so much. Maybe that means make better choices, maybe that means just try a little harder. But I really liked that little saying. It means to me that sometimes things are really hard and maybe you should just try a little harder to get what you want, because regretting not going for something you want is so much worse. I seriously think that I know TOO MUCH about regret. I don't want to know it "so well" anymore. Hummmmmm those are deep thoughts. Maybe I should go to bed now. :)
