- I'd like to lose weight. That seems to be on the top of everyone's list. I'm too tired to do anything about it and I like to drink coke and eat cheeseburgers.
- I'd like Hunter to win a few basketball games, but I don't really have any control over that despite how many times I yell, "You've got to rebound! Smart passes! Defense! C'mon Hunter!"
- I'd like to get my house (and even my classroom) more organized so there aren't piles of papers and things I need to get to...EVERYWHERE! I promise my house is clean. I do laundry. The dishwasher gets emptied and reloaded nearly everyday. I wipe down the floors. I clean the bathrooms. The food preparations surfaces in the kitchen are always wiped down. The trash gets taken out frequently (it tends to stink long before it ever gets full). However, there is CLUTTER EVERYWHERE!! I don't know what to do with piles of papers and books and magazines and church stuff and school stuff and nursing stuff. I don't know what to do with folded, clean laundry. I wish it would magically put itself away. I don't know what to do with all of the fun exciting Christmas toys Molly got for Christmas, except to put them in a plastic tub by her walker, stroller, bean bag, bumbo, etc.
- I'd REALLY like a new house, but have you driven past ours lately? There are 4 "for sale" signs out front for units in our complex and 1 other unit is empty but hasn't been listed yet. They continually keep undercutting each other and are selling their homes for ridiculously low prices (though that is still not helping them sell). HOW IN THE WORLD WOULD WE EVER SALE OURS???
- The lady who is putting out food for the stray cats needs to go! Last year we had 2 strays that would hang out around our dumpster (the white one without a tail and the darker brown one). This year there are at least 4-5 different cats that hang out at the dumpsters, jump out of the dumpster when you get close to them, walk along my kitchen window ledge and freak me out, crawl on my car, crawl on the neighbors canvas-covered car and make weird noises, make other weird noises, greet you with creepy yellow eyes when you get the mail . . . you get the idea. I've seen her put little saucers of food out. WHY IS SHE DOING THIS!! STOP IT!!
Happy New Year!
