Sheesh!
I really don’t have a lot to show for this fortieth year. To date any way. I mean I really don’t. I am still in my “new job” as it hasn’t quite been a year. I bought a gym membership to a really awesome community center to which I still have yet to commune, my eating habit still involve cheese and an inordinate amount of Mexican food. Mayhap a beer or…..well whose counting.
Anyway, what do I have to say for myself? Zero, Zilch, Nada. We are talking bump on a pickle status here. What to do what to do? I think I have started over, reinvented, reaffirmed, made a pact, written down, started and not completed several hundred get up and go motivational turn arounds. Evidently, my boohonkus is much bigger than it looks because for some reason I have yet to be able to push this big thing in the right direction. And if any of you who say it is mind over matter, then you obviously haven’t seen it.
Okay it isn’t really just that. Big or little motivation comes from within or being offered lots of money to do something, I am sure both may work, but either way I have been “weighed, conquered and found wanting” (what movie is that from?).
Well in the meantime I am gonna start some good critter soup to take over to Mr. V’s place. Hope he likes it!

Weighed, conquered and found panting, huh? Listen Ape, one good turn deserves another, right? Because you've been so good to me... and because you've kindly made me an awful lot of critter soup lately, I'm gonna help. I'm signing you up for the Valance keep fit course and I ain't taking no for an answer. And 'cause you're such a good friend, I'm gonna let you have it cheap.
Meantime, you just keep on writing 'cause you're darned good at it. Entertains me, anyhow.
Cheap huh? I am seeing bottles of whiskey in your future am I right? Maybe some steak and onions? Well, squirell and onions. This whole cooking thing is new but seing as how your always hungry I figured what better person to try out my new found love of cooking critters!
Yup, cheap. Course we could negotiate some. If you were to leave those darn squirrels alone and keep me in steak and onions, and maybe some whiskey, then I'd let you have the whole course free. I'd even let you in on some motivational skills, at no extra cost.
Hey, Kracken, not too many bottles in Mr Vs future cos he promised some to me. I ain't his psuedo granny for nothing, you know, I need taking care of and the whisky is the only way to do it. Heaven help me if I have to go thirsty.
Anyway, it was nice seeing you on my blog.... thanks a bunch for visiting. Cheers!
It can be hard to motivate yourself into doing anything. I suggest you start small and try to build up. Promising yourself to exercise most days and finish a novel in three months is daunting, but maybe you could go to one exercise session and open up a document and make a few notes?
You've joined a gym? I'm in awe of you're get up and go, especially as I think mine's got up and gone!
Way to go Miss Kracken!
I like that plan Miss Patsy! Miss JJ I said joined I didn't say went! :)
Phew... Just take it easy around all the high tech equipment they have in those places. Although, an eye catching six-pack from a distance aint too bad if the ego is otherwise engaged.
Agree with Patsy on the making a few notes, and don't forget a stash of whatever takes yer fancy in case yer energy levels drop.
Hey honey,
yap, it's me. Come by and visit...I've missed you.
H
Miss Valerie there will always be whisky here for you! Cheers!
Miss JJ, again, you have yet to actually SEE me at the gym. Let alone those instruments of torture. I'll get to it someday FOR sure! Come across the pond and you go with. Apparently a friend of ours thinks our butts remind him of mules. Honestly can't say mine doesn't! HA!!
Miss Houston I would be honored! See you soon!
