Being Lazy, and 25 + 26 + 27

"Get on your knees and pray, then get on your feet and work." -Gordon B. Hinckley

The quote has to do with something I don't like about myself. You'll see when you read Day 26.

Well. We're still sick. Isn't that wonderful? Andrew is feeling almost completely better, but he'll still just lay down on the floor every once in a while because he's tired. Poor boy. And my stomach is still acting funny. It's been acting weird for a week. I'll be fine for most of the day, but every once in a while I get an upset stomach, like my intestines are cramping up and it makes me feel like I might throw up. It's NOT fun.

And no, I'm NOT pregnant. So it's not morning sickness.

So really, we haven't been up to much since Sunday, just hanging out.

OH!!!!! But I do have big news - I'm getting an iPhone! I'm really REALLY excited! It's in the mail, and it's in Columbus now, so I'm hoping that I'll have it by this afternoon, this evening at the latest. I've wanted an iPhone for years, and now I'm finally getting one. Hurray!

Day 25 - Something you're currently worrying about

Wow, I'm almost done with this first 30 day challenge! But onto what I'm supposed to write about.

What I'm currently worrying about is what I've been worried about my entire life: my future. Now that I have a family, OUR future. I worry about Jason and his grades. I worry about having enough money to pay next month's rent and buying food. I worry about where we're going to decide to go after Jason graduates next year. I worry about what kind of house we're going to get some day. I worry about having my kids go to school in a good district.

That's a lot.

Day 26 - Things you like and dislike about yourself

I like that I've been around the same weight (+/- 5 lbs, depending) since high school. I don't like that my body shape has changed since high school, so I can't fit into those clothes anymore. I like that I can play the piano and have a pretty good singing voice. I don't like that I can't/don't practice as much as I'd like to. I like my hair when I'm pregnant. I don't like my hair when I'm not pregnant. Haha. I like that I've decided to work out. I don't like that I've never been in shape before in my entire life, so I have no idea what I'm doing, nor do I know what it feels like to be in shape. I like that I like healthy foods. Mostly. I don't like how I feel like desserts call out to me and I don't want to stop eating them until they're GONE and IN MY BELLY!!! Haha. Sad, but true. I like when I get a lot of things done around the house. I don't like that my work ethic only strikes me about once a week, after the dishes are piled up in the sink, the living room is so messy it's overwhelming trying to think of where to begin, and I have no more clean underwear so I HAVE to do laundry.

*sigh* Such is life, no?

 

Day 27 - A quote you try to live by

There are a few:

I like this one for when I feel like I'm not really good at anything:

"Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best." -Henry Van Dyke

I like this one for when I'm not in a very kind mood:

"If you judge people, you have no time to love them." -Mother Teresa

When I'm feeling down about life:

"In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." -Gordon B. Hinckley

Secret: I've been blogging since I was a junior in high school (I think. Maybe it was my senior year...). No, I haven't had a blogspot blog for that long. If you want to see what my life was like before I had this one, check out THIS blog! Unfortunately, my freshman year of college I went back and deleted a lot of personal information/embarrassing things I didn't want others to see, so it's not COMPLETELY true to how things were originally written, but still. It's pretty close.
