So last week was a lot better. I was checking off my chores on the app I downloaded, I worked out, and everything was going great. This week I've realized that I let emotions sway me way too much. I've stopped checking my app. This has been a pretty bad week.
Monday I let a dumb show upset me and decided I just wanted to relax and watch our shows once Brent got home from a meeting.
Yesterday some terrible news about an acquaintenance from elementary school got me super-depressed. And now today I read another horrible story.
But I've learned. And now it's time to move on. I've changed my tune a little bit (I hope). Now instead of take responsibility, it's today is a God-given day and it is wonderful and with His help and for His glory I can and will take responsibility. I have heard way too many stories in the past 12 years that remind me just how short life can be and how quickly it can be taken away. I can't do this on my own. I've tried way too much to do that.
My next goal is to start going to bed by 11 and getting up at 6. I need to work out in the mornings, it's just better for me. I think I'm going to write my new phrase on a sticky note and put it on my alarm clock so I can read it when I wake up to the first alarm!
I've also noticed that Wednesdays seem to be my "kick myself in the butt" days. I think that's cause every Wednesday is serious day on this blog I read every day: http://stufffchristianslike.blogspot.com/
