Hi Friends,
I’m back!
Back from Boston, back in Boise, and back on that
don’t-eat-don’t-sleep-study-my-life-away grind. And, let’s be honest, the only
reason I don’t eat is NOT because I don’t like food.
I love food.
My oven, however, hates food. It insists on spewing smoke
and setting off the fire alarm every time I try to use it.
Every. Single. Time.
After I got the fire alarm to stop screaming at me
yesterday, I had to remind myself that there are things much more challenging
than cooking.
Here’s the list I came up with:
Driving
 |
| Athletic tape fixes everything, and yes, that is Taylor (my boss's daughter) in the back seat. |
I may have accidentally driven my boss’s car into a parking
garage this summer. But to be fair, that wall was a lot closer than it seemed.
They should have put a warning sticker on it.
Nannying
Don’t get me wrong, I love my Massachusetts family, and I
miss them dearly. However, nannying is freaking hard. Not only do temper
tantrums that make you want to run away to Canada, but there are also all these
the little habits that kids have that just get under your skin.
Like breathing. Why do you have to breathe so loud? I’m
trying to do something, but I can’t focus because your breathing is at a whole
new decibel.
Going to the gym
So I have this philosophy: the gym is where happiness goes
to die.
Those who tell you that they enjoy going to the gym are
either liars or the people that participate in the meat market that is the
campus rec.
Also, evidently there is a gym dress code memo that I didn’t
receive.
Hi, yea, aren’t those compression shorts uncomfortable? Like
do they keep riding up your butt? I just don’t understand.
Going to bed early
Every morning, when I drag myself from my castle of sheets
and pillows, I can’t help but think, “Self, tonight you have to go to bed early.” Unfortunately, somewhere between the
morning and and the night, I find myself aimlessly wandering through Twitter,
Facebook, YouTube, and Netflix. I eventually fall asleep from sheer inability
to keep my eyes open, and drag myself out of bed the same way every morning.
It’s becoming a problem.
Blogging
I really enjoy writing and posting, but obviously I’ve been
on the struggle bus for quite some time. However, there are some pretty nifty
experiences occurring in the next little while, and I’d love to share them with
you lovely Internet folk.
Thanks for sticking with me, and I’ll talk to you soon.
What do you all find challenging? Let me know in the comment
section below!
XOXO
Safe Travels!
P.S. It’s October 3rd.
Happy Mean Girls Appreciation Day
