Life has been hard lately. Unbalanced. Chaotic. Tragically beautiful at times. Hard. Full of worry. Doubt. And I am working really hard to change a lot of the negative. Because my goal in life is to put nothing but positive out into the universe.
I started coming up with this running list in my head of all the things I want and need in my life. Here is said list:
What I Want:
- An ice cold pitcher of sangria
- A huge helping of creamy spinach and artichoke dip with warm bread for dipping
- 60 degree weather so I can open up my windows and let the cool air circulate in our home
- A spa day that includes a massage, a facial, mani and pedi
- A movie marathon day - popcorn, icee, 2-3 movies in the theater. BLISS.
- A little extra spending money to buy a film camera and film for developing
- A day in a coffee shop with my laptop sipping espresso and writing and reading away
- A Zingermann's sandwich eaten outside in the sun with a cold lemonade
- A day at the beach watching my kid play in the water, happy and smiling and laughing in the nice warm sun
What I Need:
- A vacation with just Mike and I. We are in desperate need of some quality alone time.
- To go grocery shopping and stock up
- To get our landscaping in the front and back cleaned up - BAD
- A technology free weekend. I need a weekend to unplug.
- To get all our paperwork for medical bills updated and paid off
- An opportunity to bring in a little extra money on the side.
- To purge and clean and declutter my home - especially our basement and kitchen.
- To move Vincent into his big boy room (sob. But i need to put it together first)
- To start getting stuff ready for baby #2 - 4 months to go.
- A good cry
I think it's funny that a lot of my wants have to do with food and drinks. I want alcohol so bad - but I just cant and it sucks.
I am ready for the weather to improve. For sunnier days to take over. For better days ahead. What are on your lists of wants and needs?
