Think it suits the mood

Giving it my best shot

I know this is not the whining and complaining I usually do. But hey I think it is allot better. If you want a giggle go back through this bog and find the one about exercise or the one about my brain frogs.

I made a couple of Christmas resolutions. Well you know everyone makes New Years resolutions but I figured I will make a couple of Christmas resolutions. Maybe I can keep them a little better.

first one is I am going to be more confident in everything I do.

Second I am going to come up with something positive to say for my self every morning. Or at least every few mornings. As you can see on my face book and twitter I am starting to come up with a new quote every now and then to upbeat my mood. In some ways I think it is helping. It takes my mind off of other things like the pain I wake up with and the crankiness I put up with. From myself and others in the house or work.

Thirdly I am going to get myself out of the house more often doing things. That was started this past summer when I joined up with the red hats. Another blog I have been doing that you may have read from me.

This does not mean I am going to be going to work more. This is just bringing me down now. To much tension in that place. It just does bring me down more. Standing all day and listening to customers that just want to complain about something going wrong is just not getting to be my thing any more. Customer service is for the birds. Especially after working it for over ten years. I need something else in my life but at this age who would want to hire me. Well only a few years to retire if I can keep it up.

Well to bring my mood up I did make it out to a concert last night. Kenny Hess had a Christmas concert last night. Lots of gospel type Christmas music that brought me to tears a couple of times. He sure does know how to belt out the songs with feeling. Well that was a night for me to remember for awhile. I just loved it. Wanted to sing right along with him. Only problem with that is my voice is so scratchy now it sure would not sound right . I use to have such a great voice and now it is just scratchy. Dang dry throat and mouth. Oh oh getting down again. This is suppose to be a positive thing for me. Well I hope to find more things like that to keep me going.

Fourthly there is exercise. Yeah right. That one may be a little tougher. Everytime I start a program of some kind it will fizzle out after a while. Need to do this though or I am just going to seaze up and not be able to move at all. What good is that going to do me. So dogs get ready for more walking. When it is not raining that is. Then it will only be one time in morning. I also have my women cave started down stairs. It has my craft room but also has the rowing machine down there and the tread mill. Enough room to do it there along with a set of weights that have dust on them and a few other exercise stuff that has not been used in a while. Well it is time to dust them off and get start on that.

Well there is a fifth one that is if budget will let me do. Is to travel a little more before it gets too tough to do it. I did a trip here this past year that I enjoyed very much. Problem is it did cause me trouble afterwards for awhile. We did a bike trip last summer. Made it over to Mount Rushmore before we turned around to come back. That was a blast except my but and legs told me different by the time we got home. You have probably read about it on my otherblog. This spring we are taking another road trip. This one will be in the car as the snow will still be on the ground some places. Heading all the way across the states and ending up in Florida. We have a time share there for a week given to us from a friend to use. So are driving there and then spending a week near Disney and then driving home. Three weeks with two in a car and one week enjoying the sights. Well that will be fun. At least I hope. See as the time gets closer. It will be up on my other blog old harley broad and other vacations. So vacations I hope will be allot so I can see allot of country. Depending on the budget that is though. In the past few years I have made it to panama and the Bahamas. I would love to take a cruise and see a little of the world around me before I am not able to anymore.

There is a sixth thing. And that is just to be myself and not worry about what other people think of me and not being able to do as much as I use to. It is tough right now when the family still expects me to do the things I could do before. Then at work were they always expect more and more out of you. Well I just keep trucking and do what I can do when I can do it and to hell with everyone else. Sounds good.

The seventh thing is to keep up with my crafty stuff. I now have a room I can fill up with it and a place to do it without having to put it away every time. I love doing these things and as long as my hands will let me do I am going to keep up with it. Getting rid of the stuff is another thing. I have done the craft fairs but never seem to sell much. Oh this also has a blog going of morning song creations if you would like to read up on what goes on there. Face book has a page of morning song creations as well if you would like see what i make. Well I have just advertised my four blogs that you can read if you want.

These are seven things I hope to keep up with this year. Christmas resolutions I hope to keep. I know I never keep my New Years resolutions so maybe if I make them early I will do a little better. I have been starting some of them already in this past year.

So everyone out there. Have yourself a great holiday season.

I want to be moving for as long as I can and not be sitting on the couch just watching the tv all day. I just have to get the adventure in. This is my life. So I am starting now. Wish me luck on this new quest. Love ya all for reading my blogs and supporting me here and on Facebook and twitter. I know not much of a following but I do have a little. Have a great holiday season and keep safe. Love ya much. Talk to you again next year. See you on the flip side. Bye for 2012.
