And The Fog Forming On My Window Tells Me That The Mornings Here...

My mom has ruined me. It's all her fault! (Don't worry, I already told her about it and she laughed). See, my mom has always taught us (my brothers and sisters) that you have to have a plan, you have to be "busy, busy". So when the weekend rolls around I usually have ten things in mind that I want to do. I guess in a bigger family things have to be planned out if they are going to happen. So maybe it was a rule out of necessity- but my mom's whole "plan" thing has still ruined me- lol.

This weekend I had nothing planned. Gasp... Yep, I didn't do jack. Well except for sweep my room, make my bed and watch The L Word dvds. Moe Moe and I watched them until 3:30 am and at that time a torrent of rain slammed into the window. Which sent Jazz and Bella into a frenzy (note to self: always close the doggy door cause Bella loves rain). The little storm was crazy and I enjoyed every part of it. Rain is so fun (I can't say it enough).

But to finish my little anecdote, it kind of upset me not to have a plan. Sad, (I thought you were supposed to turn into your mom later in life) I felt really unproductive and even a little guilty about it. Like I had wasted time and that everyone knew I was a slacker. Lol. I know, I know its not a big deal. But I'm telling you, my mom ruined me for life. I will be that person that is always running around like a chicken without its head. Oh well, nothing I can do- I have no plan!

Oh I forgot, Moe Moe and I did see National Treasure (not bad- I liked it) and we went to Sephora and I got 4 Christmas presents for people and nothing for myself (maybe this weekend wasn't such a waste). I feel a little better now.

Sometimes the things you have to do are to take care of yourself, recognize that you need to relax and just enjoy your friends and the space around you. I love just being home sometimes and reading or watching movies or just laying in bed and playing with Bella. Besides, guilt is bad - no need for it in your life. Next time - just enjoy! love - Mom
