Music Monday! Crazy Train

-
Standing outside at 7:30 am, in my bathrobe, taking pictures of the sky.
(it had beautiful pinks and sweeping clouds)

 Spaghetti and meatballs for breakfast.
(trying to make use of the leftovers from the fridge instead of throwing them away)


Yes, it might be one of those kinds of days.

At the very least, it will be interesting. 

 For a Monday, CRAZY might be the only way to handle it, a nice change from the unproductive, lazy, blah weekend I just experienced. 

 How do you get past an unproductive spell?

    Oiy! "Manic Monday" is one of my favorite Monday songs... http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Manic-Monday-lyrics-The-Bangles/9ED9658EEEDA61FC4825697D003210D0

    An unproductive spell? Eiiiiih.... is there such a thing as a parent? I mean, you always end up making food/cleaning up/keeping the ship moving even if you don't get to be productive on the things *you* want to do (and boy do I know that feeling). I am not sure, actually... I'll have to think about that one!

      well, yes I got my morning chores done, have to. coffee made and pets fed, let out, etc. But my kids are older now so it is a little easier to say 'get your own' for lunch and dinners. But yes, other things got done just not the ones I should have done, you are right. Sometimes just starting is all it takes. other times the start is too much. c'est la vie! ;)

    Usually, my unproductive spells are because I am working too much. So when I get a day off, I enjoy the evening relaxing, and I hit the ground running the next morning.
    Like today, for example. I worked the last 4 days, took it pretty lazy after work yesterday, and have already made (and consumed) muffins for breakfast, and finished my homework for the week, and I've only been up 5 hours.
    Time for a hot drink, then decide what's next (probably some fresh air)...

    I make a list! I love crossing things off a list...it makes me get more done, and the bonus is I can go back and see what I've accomplished so I don't mope around and whine that I haven't done anything all day ;)

    I actually wrote a list today. so far, though, haven't crossed anything off. crap! Time to get to it. sorry, just a small whine there. ;)
    good for you though! There really is great satisfaction in crossing things off the list.

Walking on Wednesday - My Money Tree is Dead! What does that MEAN??

It's not the kind of money tree you are thinking.  I wish it was. But it is not. It is technically a Pachira . The name supposedly comes from a story of it's origin.  A poor man prayed for money, and then found this "odd" plant. He took it home as an omen, and made money from selling plants grown from it's seeds. I bought it at a grocery store when we first moved back to the states, in 2004 . We had just moved in to our own house, after being displaced from Hurricane Ivan , and our new place needed some green. This was the biggest plant, for the least amount of money , at the grocery store. It said it was ' foolproof ' , and that is the right plant for me ! I thought the name was an omen too, hoping it would bring good fortune, meaning a little money .  It decorated our living room in New York for almost 6 years ! During that time, about 2 years after I bought it, I tried to root it from clippings just for fun. It worked , and I grew another money ...

Music Monday! Just Dance

A surprise suggestion, this song was. I asked a friend-who-is-family for some ideas, as I wanted to do a Music Monday this week, but was having trouble picking a song. Just didn't have any that felt right at the time. So this friend, who by the way is someone we (hubby first actually) 'met' online. Communicated for quite a while before actually meeting in person. But you just know when you click with someone and we are going on over 8 years of friendship, I believe, though it feels like we have known each other forever. She has been a wonderful addition to our extremely small circle of friends. She is 'auntie' to my kids, she is who I vent to almost on a daily basis via messages, she is always willing to listen unconditionally. And that, my dear readers, is hard to find these days. She became family. Source So after complaining I was not inspired by any songs, she said she would see what songs came on over dinner with her Mama, and give me some ideas. Her Ma...

Raige Creations turns 1 year old next week. To celebrate, Raige is doing her FIRST GIVEAWAY! I can't believe a year has passed, and how far Raige has come. Certainly, the handmade community and its supporters had something to do with Raige not giving up, and Raige's customers are just the best! So to honor all you wonderful people, Raige is happy to give. What to give, you ask? 3 New Toekini's  TOEKINIS OF COURSE Toekinis have, by far, generated the most buzz at Raige Creations. It seems fitting to celebrate with one of them.  Every time I have Toekini's on my brain, I think "Life is good today" and this song from Music Monday  gets stuck in my head.with these lyrics: "I've got my toes in the water, ass in the sand,  not a worry in the world ,  a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today." But life is good today, even if it is not yet summer here, and to celebrate - the giveaway will be your CHOICE of TOEK...
