Attitude adjustment


Pic from here

I am in need of an adjustment to my attitude!! I am lacking some much needed patience and compassion. This is not like me, not like me at all. I am quick tempered, jaded, and stuck in my own little world. Oh how I dislike this feeling greatly.

Nothing major is going on...just life. Sometimes life is great and sometimes well...it just isn't that great. I am a go with it kind of girl....I enjoy being joyful. But as of late the joy is not as easily found.

Game plan to turn it around:

Pick up my pretty flowers for the flower beds that I ordered through a fund raise (there are a TON of them)

Zumba
Home made shrimp fried rice for dinner
Hot Bath
Bed (early I hope)

Sorry for not being around and then coming back and being a big ole' baby.
Any suggestions to turn my mood around? What are some of your favorite pick me ups?


**Note: please no hate mail I completely understand that there are horrible things going on in this world and I have many blessings. I just needed to be a bit of a baby.**

Getting prepared.

So I have decided to give up coffee for Lent. NOT caffeine but coffee, java, joe, you get the idea. I am slightly nervous about this undertaking. So to get prepared for my 40 days without that lovely beverage that beckons me out of my out slumber every morning I made a run to Target.
I purchased some more green tea, a box of TAZO that was called AWAKE (that sounds promising) a pretty new "tea" mug and an electric tea pot (so I don't burn my house down while in the shower but can still have hot water, NOW) . I love tea, but it is not the same as my coffee. So as I sit watching Biggest Loser I am taking part in one last cup.

This adorable mug my niece Emma made for me. She painted it with flowers and "Aunt Jenn". It is one of my favorite items on this earth. This will be a interesting experience but I know it will be worth it!

On a different note: My co-workers got me these adorable cupcakes today. They were very good.


The hubster and I have the day off tomorrow. He is making me a VERY yummy B-day breakfast that I plan to share pics of. Beyond that our plans are that we have no plans. We are just excited to have a day off in the middle of the week to celebrate and do what ever we want (or as Kev keeps saying, whatever I want).

Anyone have suggestions?

Have a great evening enjoy your coffee for me!
