RUN FOR IT!

Dramatic? yes, a little. I'm always that way. By now, most of you know that I have been diagnosed with AADHD (or Adult Hyper Activity Disorder). While I think that ADHD itself is waaaaaaay over diagnosed, I think my Dr. may have hit the nail on the head.  I don't have time, nor do I have any interest in telling you all about AADHD and its symptoms. (thats what google is for heffa!).
     N-E-Way...I suddenly understand this feeling that I have had for many years.  The need to run.  Sometimes I just feel like bolting for the door and running like Pocahontas through the Georgia Forests! Lots of things have stopped my from doing so.  From my fat ass (that jiggles.HARD), to homeschooling 4 children, there is always a reason to supress that burning urge to run. I

Another excuse: Lame ass running shoes.

     Frankly, I can't fight it anymore.  I will tell you all about the nervous breakdown that fueled my recent decision, but for now, all you need to know, is that today, October 23, 2012, I become a runner. Period. To be continued...

Am I really about to Run? Because I want to?

The empty corner...

There is a hideous empty corner in my room.  Its begging for some flair (and a space for my plethora of accessories) watch as I transform it just one day!

Tuesdays Suck (my Debby Downer post)

   
Does anyone else feel like tuesdays are really the worst day of the week? I hear people complain about mondays a lot because it a back to work/school day, bur I actually love Mondays! That's the day I have finally recovered from my weekend debauchery and I feel refreshed and ready to take on anything.  Wednesdays are awesome too. (humpday. DUH!). Thursdays rule because its soooooo close to Friday and Friday's are awesome just on GP.  I mean, think about it, there are restaurants named to declare its fantastic-ness! Saturday and Sunday don't even need my help here.  The weekend is my bread and butter...
   BUT TUESDAYS...
ohhhhhhhh TUESDAYS!
    I loathe them. Boring, Lame, mudane, and painful are a few words that come to mind when I think of the day following hopeful Mondays and preceeding the week-end warriors ray of hope Wednesdays. It's too far from Friday to give me any hope, and its too close to Sunday to erase the memories of last weekend.
     So here I am, still laying in bed, searching the internet for inspiration to get out of bed and make strides toward being a contributing member of society.  I still haven't found any. Pray for me y'all!

Halloween and Boobs! My 2 favorite things...

   So I get a lot of flack because my favorite Holiday is Halloween.  Mostly from my Christian friends and family.  Weird though, because I too, am  Christian.  Don't get me wrong.  I love the other major Holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter, but frankly, however hackneyed this may sound, the over commercialization of these holidays makes me sick! Hardly anyone is concerned with giving and while most people claim to love these days because of some Christ centered reason that they heard repeated by their parents and grandparents, the real reason people love Christmas, is the presents. Period.  Americans love Thanksgiving because we are the fattest nation on the planet and any excuse to gorge ourselves is good enough.  Slap on the whole, "being thankful" rhetoric and you have a pseudo-meaningful reason to stuff your face.
     So I proudly say that I love the one holiday where people are allowed to be whatever they want even in a society that forces us into boxes everyday.  I love the time of the year where things are rapidly changing and everyone actually seems happy about it.  I love that October has become  the time of year where women actually stop for a moment to take think of themselves as well as other women.
     This is a really awesome time of year.  Soak it up.  Pumpkins and pink ribbons...What's not to Love?!

What is your favorite thing about fall?
What are you dressing up as this Halloween ?
