Top Ten: A Few Honest Words

It's easy to get caught up in how we're "supposed" to live. How we're "supposed" to act. What we're "supposed" to say, think, do-- what society proclaims is right and proper and accepted in the world. Well I'm not afraid to step out with A Few Honest Words and say what I REALLY say, think, and do. It's my life and I'm not ashamed of how I live it. So what if I do things my way? Accept it or don't, I don't care. =)


In honor of this new segment to my blog, "A Few Honest Words", I'm going to kickstart the honesty with a Top Ten!

1. Dishes that have caked-on food and need to be scrubbed get tossed in a sink full of hot water and left there until I feel like getting back to them; my excuse is always "They need to soak first." Sometimes they can be left like that for a day or two.
2. When I first started my workout program, I would check off "daily fruit" and "daily water" before I actually had them, so by the end of the day if I missed one, I still felt like I was on the right track. I never corrected the ones I missed.
3. When my kids get sent to their room together for doing something wrong, and I'm trying to get cleaning or cooking done, I put on a movie for them to keep them occupied, so I don't have to hear them crying and screaming at me while I'm trying to work.
4. I have been blogging since May 27, 2010. As often as I say that my hubby supports me in all that I do, I don't think he has ever read a single one of my posts. Last night I finally stepped up and told him it upsets me.
5. I'm on antidepressants. I'm supposed to take one in the morning and one in the evening. At least three times a week, I forget to take the one in the evening.
6. When I'm alone and in a bad mood, I sometimes imagine certain people being in the room so I can yell at them for all the things they do that make me mad. I have no idea what someone will say if they ever catch me while I'm doing this.
7. At least 75% of my time on Facebook is spent on my own Wall. Very rarely do I ever actually go to someone else's Wall, and only once or twice a day do I look at what's in my News Feed.
8. If I'm sweeping the house and I KNOW that I've accidentally swept something under the couch, I'll leave it there until the one time a week I move the couches. Even if that's not for another 6 days.
9. I wear the same pair of jeans or shorts twice in a row if I didn't step outside the house the day before.
10. As easy as laundry is to do, I hate folding and hanging. Sometimes a laundry basket of clean clothes can sit in my room for a week before I force myself to put it away. And only then because there are no more bras or jeans in my dresser.

Got anything you'd like to 'fess up to this week?
