Random Randomness

Instead of writing something "important," I thought I'd write some random stuff about my life and me. Then you can tell me some random stuff about your life and you, if you want to :)

The light-hearted

1. I'm basically the only person who doesn't really eat eggs and omelettes, I think.
2. I have the ability to trip over nothing and run into everything. Socially awkward 101. Sometimes, I say really weird stuff that even I don't understand. Recently, I said, "Today goes by fast, doesn't it?" lol. huh? She was like, "It sure does!" haha.
3. When a drive-thru speaker is loud, I start laughing way too much. It's just so funny that a pole is yelling at me in the middle of a parking lot.
4. My cat likes to race me head-on down the driveway when I come home, but I really don't think she could take on the car. Sometimes, I have to park far away from the house and walk home because of her freaking love and stupidity. THANKS A LOT OLIVIA!! It's good for my fitness, though, right :)
5. I like to act out songs when I'm alone, especially if I'm on the indoor bike thing. It makes me ride (drive?) the bike longer.  Do you act out/dramatize songs, too?

The heavy-hearted

1. If I wake up during the night, I can't go back to sleep. I'm a true insomniac, not the facebook-induced kind. I've gone 3, 4, 5 days without sleeping. Not sleeping well makes you emotional, tired and moody. It started in my late-teens and keeps hanging around. It got so much better after I had the baby, but then it came back. When you first have a baby, you can literally sleep standing up or even while you shower--take what you can get, mamas.
2. I always think of things I want to blog about during the day and then I draft it and forget about it... if I get that far. I think that people are putting way too much pressure on bloggers to edit photos these days... it's supposed to be about writing content not editing photos, right? I had plans to just ramble and post random stuff about myself when I started this thing, now I worry that my photos aren't just right (so, I never get my personal posts completed) or my language/formatting is appropriate... we're really missing out on the point of blogging by worrying about marketing all the time, I think. It's time we go back to talking to ourselves with no/minimal photos and see if anyone's still listening. ;) 
3. My anxiety is off the charts, lately. I --literally-- can barely breathe sometimes (panic attack much?). It's hard to work from home, homeschool, go to tons of appointments (out of state) each week and still have to do all of the cooking, cleaning, budgeting, bill paying, vehicle maintenance, home repairs/projects, pet care-taking and loving on my baby boy etc that I've always done. I feel overwhelmed and near-tears most days. One million responsibilities. I'm so thankful that I have the ability to do all of these things and I really mean that. I've just got to find a better way to schedule all of it and eliminate what's got me so anxious. (answer coming in #4)
4. I can't stand a mess. When there's piles of stuff laying around (see: every day of my life) it just completely alters my mood and takes all of my focus away from other things. I can't clean fast enough, I guess. But I should take that as a challenge. A private challenge, because I'm not about to say that out loud. ;) I really, truly need a storage building. Can I borrow like $10k pretty please? :)
5. Ya know what, I've really wanted to open an eBay store for the last few years and I should get on that... I have a lot of great-condition items that I'm "saving for later" (even brand new stuff) and I should just sell that stuff and make money to put towards that storage building! lol <333
6. Writing posts where I'm "bitching" makes me feel awful, so don't be surprised if I delete this later. Heart you!
7. I'm not exactly where/who I thought I'd be at this point in my life... how about you? #soulsearching Future post topic, maybe?

Well, that's some stuff about me. I wrote this in like 10 45 minutes and I'm not going to re-read it and edit it to death :) At least I left out photos--baby steps toward blogging without photos and saving photos for other posts (like recipes and makeup!)

what have you been up to?
