"DO OVER" DAY

Today was a "do over" day. It is also a day I probably should NOT blog, because most likely I will have to "do it over"!! Monday's are not my favorite day....I don't have to go to work every day (usually three to four days a week) but Monday is a day I try to not miss. Today I could have skipped it and been ahead. Everything I did just landed right back in my lap (which isn't such a good thing when you keep books for a business). I also had to re-write a CASA report, a BIG do-over in my book because, of all the work involved in CASA, doing the reports is the scarriest and most worrisome for me. I knew from the start it wasn't going to be what I wanted.....a bad omen. Anyway, all the things I had to do over today got me thinking about what I would have done differently with my life.....not necessarily a good way to go with the day's events, but anyway....

• I would " do " less and " be " more
• Spend more fun time with my kids
• Be a better listener
• Worry less about a clean house
• Fuss less about being "too busy" and just quit some things ( JUST SAY NO!)
  
• Try to be a better daughter and understand my mom more (funny how age opens the windows of ahhhhhhs in your understanding of relationships.)
• Call my high school friends more often
• Be more medative and thoughtful and less compulsive and impulsive (is it genes??!)

I think I'll quit while I am ahead.....one positive thought..... as I was writing these down, ( on impulse I might add) I found after the first couple things, I had to really think about what I would "do over". That is somewhat encouraging, yes????


I find myself really missing all my family.....can't wait until I can go see my grandkids in Arizona and Christmas and Thanksgiving when at least part of us will be together.

Bye for now.....New Day Tomorrow!
