My new motto: Why not today?
Why do we put off things. What if today was your last day on earth. What did you put off to watch Netflix. What was more important than the important stuff? What text kept you from doing something that really mattered.
My parents are there for me. They have always been there for me. They have always chosen life. Life is teaching your grandkids how to mix the soil in the garden. Its sharing knowledge on sewing, golfing, baking. Its giving yourself that makes you immortal.
So to counter act the cryptonite that is the shame freeze, I need to ask myself, "Why not today?"
Why not today? It better be a good reason to give up your immortality and your humanity.

Day 2 of writing every day
The days highlights
4 year old singing, "do you want to build a snowman"
taco's for dinner
super hot shower
dancing with the xbox and my thirteen year old.
reading with the boys
super soft blanket
Today I am grateful for family. I love cooking for the family and seeing people eat seconds.
I was fairly grouchy and barely kept it in check. I think I just need more sleep but I am not good at sleep. So being grouchy sometimes is what I have to overcome. Kids can sense when you are pretending to be happy. Which is crazy because these are the same little people that hide in plain sight thinking they are geniuses. The same people who blame dogs and wind for things they do. For some reason they have a sixth sense for baloney. To bad I sometimes am a baloney farm.
Random musings for a Wednesday. I would tell stories of what people were talking about but this is a family blog:)

March Madness challenge
I love to write but never make time for it. I have time to read the daily mail and facebook but no time to express an original thought. So in hounor of March I am writing at least one time a day so stay with me I might say something good.. or not.
Have a mediocre day and look out and write!
I am not off to a great start. I am so tired that I didn't notice I was wearing my shirt backwards all day at work. I also forgot my coat and it rained. I did go for two very cold walks and came home and made chicken and mashed potatoes and salad so it was a mixed bag.
