I really am pathetic. I decided to vent about what I do best, wasting time when I seen my last blog entry. It appears word for word what I was going to write about now. Only I can’t figure out how to sit in this lounger with my wireless keyboard and iPad. I do recall doing it well last time, now I am all awkward and so.
This weekend was really summery and yet Hollace and I (RAW is in Indiana this weekend) hunkered down and stayed inside the whole time. Really, seriously normal people don’t do that do they? No they embrace the weather and go out in it, play. I had two activities on my to do list with Hollace in mind. One is play tennis and the other was bake bread (again with the hunker down thing). We did neither. It isn’t Hollace’s fault because I lead the charge here but I can’t seem to drag myself to do anything. I am overly conscious of time to the point of not wanting to take the time out to do it. I need an attitude adjustment concerning how I deal with time.
There were several other things on my list I wanted to do this weekend I didn’t do either but I did one thing that wasn’t on the list and that was clean the tub. Of all the household chores that one for some reason gets neglected. I just close the curtain and forget about it. Oh, I just remembered I didn’t put the mat back in the tub and Hollace is taking a shower right now. Hope she doesn’t slip.
Hollace has too much free time. I started reading an article today about kids and how they really need free time for innovation. Hollace doesn’t have that problem and she is pretty innovative. Yet I still feel guilty that I don’t push her more for anything. I let her slide on everything. I guess it is my lack of initiative leaking on her. So what do I do about it?
I started sketching out Hollace’s summer schedule. I just don’t know how to get more people in it. It isn’t bad enough she is an only child, she is probably a lonely one or about to be once school is out. She is exactly like me in a lot of ways.
What do I need to do to get more initiative and do stuff. I need to start acting on all those things I need to do. I want to paint the bathroom, why not just do it instead of writing it on a list to do. JUST DO IT!
As soon as Hollace gets out of the shower, maybe we will go play tennis. It isn’t too late. Then tonight I will sign her up for lessons and put that schedule in action.
