Mondays Are Me Days

Happy Monday everyone! I have decided to dedicate Monday as "Me" day. 

I have blogged, tweeted, read emails, and responded to all.

I had a healthy lunch; wild caught salmon, half of a baked sweet potato, and fresh cooked broccoli.

No fats or oils, but there was fresh ground black pepper, a sprinkle of iodized sea salt, ground ginger, fresh basil and lemon from my backyard. And to wash it all down, a glass of carrot juice served in a wine goblet!

I have always looked at Mondays as a new beginning. A start day, so to speak. 

It's a brand new day to a brand new week. Time to start eating healthy.

Get into an exercise routine. Just do something good for you. 

I like to clean house, catch up on laundry, and start new projects on Mondays.

And when I say clean house, I mean clean house. Scrubbing floors, (On hands and knees of course)

toilets, and bathtubs. Polishing and dusting furniture and running the vacuum. Yes, you can call me crazy,

but I like a clean fresh smelling house (Especially after cooking fish and broccoli) and crawling into bed at night with fresh, crisp, clean sheets. Sweet!

I also like to do yard work. There isn't any better way to get some fresh air and exercise then pulling weeds, trimming around planters, and mowing.

So I will leave you all with some good thoughts and make your Monday a "Me" day!

And if you get a chance stop by my other blog and read my review of "Catch Her in the Rye"

I am headed to the jungle in my back yard!

What do you Neglect?

You write. I write. Some of us make to do lists, while others make schedules.

There is always something that needs to be done.
Housework
eat
feed the dogs, cats, goldfish, etc
shopping
Oh and laundry, nah that can wait a day or two more, right?
I've only worn these jeans two days now and I'm not going anywhere.

The thing is, there's always something that needs to be done, which actually is a good thing,
because sitting at this computer 24/7 is really not very good.

Well, I have a confession to make.....
   "I neglect my car"
Yep you heard me right, I confess, I neglect me car.
I mean, it's been a month, no wait, maybe two, since I vacuumed and cleaned it out.
Good thing I'm usually the only one in it!
But then it's been a good month since I washed it too.
That's okay, I don't usually go anywhere.
But I can tell you when I get to the grocery store
 and pull up into that parking place and step on the brake......
        "POOF" There's a big cloud of dust!
You'd think that Pigpen from Charlie Brown, finally grew up and learned to drive.

Okay I admit it, it needs to be loved and pampered every once in a while.
So I'm thinking this weekend, since NaNoWriMo starts on Tuesday,
I really should clean my car,
even though I'm not going anywhere,
my neighbors will love and appreciate me again.

So What do you neglect??? Hmm....Curious minds want to know......
