I hate meetings.
I hate, hate, hate winter after Christmas is over.
I hate entitlement.
I hate that our smoke dectector goes off any time I bake with olive oil and that I have to stand on a dining room chair to turn it off.
I hate the fact that Brittney...

WatchOK this is one of those crazy things… gotta watch it! Beyonce and 1961! This is what happens when I have to be indoors for weeks on end!
Sometimes I feel like my life is a giant Venn Diagram. There are so many little worlds I live in… some of them cross, some of them don’t, and some are almost impossible to explain. Some people would think it was a mess of contradictions but it all makes sense to me. I realize everyone goes through this… you are not always the same “you” to everyone. There are parts of...
Cabin Fever!
I am so restless right now! I just want to travel and run around outside and “porch-sit” and climb mountains and sing in the car with friends with the windows down and have a cook out and fall down laughing and go to concerts and sit on the lawn and eat at a restaurant with all the windows open looking out over water and smell freshly cut grass and wear sandals or no shoes at all.

Resolutions
1. Worry less
2. Be less quick to judge people and situations
3. Try to do at least one creative or artistic thing every day. Even if it is just drawing a picture on a napkin.
4. Balance my checkbook. I am really, really bad at this.
5. For my mental health - spend less time on facebook! It is seriously bad. There needs to be a facebook timer that automatically kicks you off after a certain...
