Week 2 of Effective Habits!

Sunday I planned my week. I have a lot I want to accomplish this week. Mostly organizing my house and school crap. I have been taking loads to my classroom, but my front room is still jammed packed with crap. I also want to get a library card from the Lewiston Library. I love libraries!

Monday I was suppose to practice empathetic listening. It's hard to do that when my husband never talks about what is frustrating him. If anyone needs someone to listen to their frustrations, give me a call! I practiced this type of listening at a training and it is harder than you think. I always want to help people fix their problems, but this type of listening is way for them to vent and decide how to fixing their own problems. This is something I need to practice!!

Today I am suppose to have a proactive day. This is hard because my day started with my dog farting as he got off the bed and my perfect PB&J had mold on the bread. I'm stuck eating oatmeal! I am determined to be proactive. I will make sure to look for the positive in everything and accomplish what I need to do. I can feel it, today is going to be a good day!

Pictures!!

Saturday was spent with my family. At my parents house we made a fire and burned pictures of my little brother's ex-girlfriend. I think it really helped him let go of her toxic, backstabbing, stupid face! As you can see I despise her for hurting my little brother. We also roasted marshmallows! 

 I had to wear my new favorite shirt on Sunday. I had to go to 3 different stores to finally find it, but it was worth it in the end. I love the Goonies. Chunk and Sloth are my favorite characters. Coll thought I was weird for needing this shirt. Goonies is a classic in my book, which is why I had to have it!

Coll couldn't find his keys for work on Monday. We looked everywhere! We took apart chairs, moved furniture, looked outside, I mean EVERYWHERE!! I came to my purse and asked Coll if he had checked it. He said he had, so I moved on not wasting anytime. He had to drive my car to work. I still looked as he went to work. When he got home he asked me if he could dump out my purse. To cut a long story short, the damn keys were in my purse the whole time!! Poor guy was making himself sick over the stupid keys. I'm just glad we found them!

My morning wasn't off to a great start. It's a cold, wet day today. I was suppose to go feed ducks with a friend, but I highly doubt we are going. When I checked the weather and saw snow on the forecast for tomorrow, I started to get a little annoyed. From the dog fart, moldy bread, and now snow, I was starting to feel a little down. Belle knew how to brighten up the gloomy day. She was eating lettuce and looked up at me. I love watching her eat. It cracks me up!
