Spring Break

Oh how I needed this break. In the spirit of a break from normal routines I am setting goals/agendas for this week.
1.) I am only allowing myself 2 hrs of TV a day and I can't save it up. I use it during the day or it's gone, I can read, listen to music, what have you but no TV. I have a habit on days off to just sit in front of the TV and never move.
2.) I must go to the gym this week. I have fallen off the bandwagon and with it I have started eating badly. Which brings me to...
3.) Eat better this week. No eating out unless it is with friends or a date...hahah like that one is going to happen anyway.
4.) I can only spend 6 (waking) hrs in the house, unless of course it's raining or god forbid snow. This way I enjoy the 60 + degree weather we are suppose to have this week.
5.) Get a start on my patio garden and plant life for my porch. I have money from subbing that would be ideal for getting everything I need for that and plus it gets me out of my house.
6.) Don't talk about, think about or worry about School or Special K this entire week it will all be there next Monday don't even think about it.
7.) Do one new thing this week. This one will be tough but I am open for suggestions.

I know by tomorrow after having ordered a pizza and settling in for a movie marathon on my couch with all the windows closed and plants dieing at my window, I will laugh at this list and come up with a better plan.

A taste of spring

Though the past few days may only be a tease that spring is here I am enjoying them to their fullest. I love the fact I have a porch and a side patio. They are wonderful places to just sit and enjoy a nice breeze and sunny sky.I have been able to leave doors and windows open to air out the stuffiness of winter. I can't say that I am disappointed that I can now turn off the heat and watch my gas bill plummet a little.

I love living downtown in the warm weather because I can just walk to so many places and it just makes me smile. The unfortunate things is I think I am coming down with a cold. I have been pounding the suddafed and took a nap this afternoon.

Right now I am sitting on my lanai and cooking on my grill. Ok it's not really a lanai but the golden girls had one so why can't I? :)

Yea spring

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Andy Williams was so far off when he sang that about Christmas. He was close Christmas is wonderful, however I have to say when winter lifts and the warm breeze of spring blows the curtains in my living room it truly is the most wonderful time of the year. I have always said that spring in Indianapolis is so beautiful, really it's only because winter is so ugly and depressing. The smell of blooming trees wafting through your home how can you go wrong.
