Goal Six


It's car wash day!! One of my other goals was to get my car washed once a month and clean it out weekly. Like everything else, I've been struggling with this but today I decided to use it as a self care activity and get one of the "fancier" car washes. I got the tricolored soap and the shine stuff Etc. It's a 7 minute break where I get to feel like a kid again and get all excited! 

Anyway, goal six is adding one chore to my schedule at least three times a week. This allows
For some crossover between goals which helps me complete all of them. Ideally, it will graduate to a chore everyday for multiple reason. One of them is I've never been able to do that, it is scientifically proven to reduce your stress level, and another being that will help me keep my apartment cleaner. I have all year to get to that point so for now let's shoot for three chores a week. 

What counts as a chore you ask? Cleaning the car, cat box, dishes, or floor; doing laundry, organizing surfaces/cabinets/fridge/closet, as well as seasonal things like taking the Christmas tree down or any other type of decoration. These will eventually get to a schedule loop where I will be able to just work on a schedule rather than going "hmmm what to do today...".

So there we go. I don't have the time right now to explain why this needs to be a goal of mine but trust me, it's not completely my fault.

In the beginning...

I started a project. It came to me one day while I was looking over all the things I needed to accomplish. Go to the gym. Eat better. Organize. Look at the car.  The list was becoming endless. I thought back to some other times when I felt like I had to juggle a ton of things and writing as something that was there to help.  I turn 25 this year. Apparently this is a big deal? Something about a quarter of a century? Becoming mature? It's going to happen; going to happen very soon actually (like as I post this). So let me introduce you, whoever that might be, to Twenty Five for Twenty Six.  Here I'm going to attempt to complete 25 goals by the time I turn 26. I have a year. One full year; 365 days to complete a set of tasks. Have I completely decide what those twenty five things are? No. I'm going to give myself a little time to figure those out. I know I need to work on losing 25 pounds but the rest of the goals are kind of up in the air!  I also want ...

These Are Not Joanna Eggs!

If you don't know who Joanna is, please see above. She's a Goanna (reptilian creature who crawls on all fours and eat eggs and things) who is a minor character in "The Rescuers Down Under."  The reason she is featured in today's post is because the theme song for that Disney movie has been playing all day at work as part of the fountain show. I heard it mid afternoon and immediately recognized it. I even said to myself "Well now I have to watch The Rescuers Down Under." And here I am doing just that as we wind down for the night.  Water intake was good today and food was decent. So far breakfast has been the low calorie density meal and based on the scale, I have lost three more pounds. But we shall see. Tomorrow is supposed to be a WellDressedWednesday.

Goosebumps

I am all over the place for sure today (the last few days really). Between worrying about things that I have no business worrying about, trying to complete my goals, work, and general adult skills I feel defeated. I’m struggling to find inspiration and motivation to be consistent. I don’t want to go to work tomorrow. I find myself exhausted the moment I get home (because my Job is exhausting and so is being at home). I look around my apartment and it’s a disaster (even for me it’s bad) and yet I have no energy to fix it. I can’t focus on anything for very long, I’m getting headaches and joint pain again (I was like this all through out high school). And yet I don’t feel nearly as stressed as I did as a teenager. I don’t understand it at all.  I’m sure that people who see me in person and then read here may be confused. I’m seemingly fine  most days. I’m good at masks. I feel the most authentic at work with my clients. Useful, mostly happy, and capable. I’m good at my job. Why ...
