Social Detox this round. Again, of course, blog-lifted from Pip.
**********************************************************************************
Close or increase privacy settings on your online dating profile. As I am not "dating" and have no intention of doing so in the near future- I'm going to expand this to profiles on social networks. No more annoying requests from people you really never cared about anyway....
Volunteer. I'm a big advocate of this... wish I could do more myself. For now, my husband and I clean out the kitty cages at our local PetSmart on Sundays. Usually takes a little over an hour and is great 'cos I remember to pick up food or litter for my herd. I will admit I begrudgingly force myself to go up there some Sundays, but I usually leave TONS happier as I love furry little snuggle snuggles and nothing is more entertaining than a kitten at play. So find an hour and brighten some one's day... fur is not necessary!
Reconcile with Family & Friends. For the most part, I've got all those I need close at heart. There are a few stragglers that I wonder... "what happened", but some are not mean to be in our lives forever... they just pass through. And other, just to put it bluntly, are not worth the effort!
Stay in. I'm a homebody. So this doesn't tend to be too hard.... the problem is finding time outside of my two jobs. Nothing makes me happier than jammie clothes and just "being" at home.
Go out. Now I'm confused. Stay in, go out.... I have been out a lot lately. Trying to get in as much time with a certain friend, we will call her "Chicken", before she lays her egg. She's going to pop any day now.... I've also been attempting to lull PIP out of that dungeon he calls work. Most times I am able to convince them to come hang out at my place... so it's like going out, but not... and they don't mind my paint covered cut off Old Navy pajama pants-aka jammies! Best of both worlds!
De-stress at work. This isn't usually a big problem. My favorite is Wednesday's... we have yoga during lunch. BUT- today my direction challenged husband got lost and I spent my yoga hour trying to get him from point A to point B without hitting point 1 or point * along the way. So as I was supposed to be de-stressing- I was actually pulling out my hair!
Learn to tune out. I'm great at this. Sorta. I'm also a great eavesdropper. Not sure how that works... Selective hearing is the best!
Separate yourself from the pack? Which pack? Wasn't aware I was in a pack- am I?
Be responsible. I spent the first 17 years of my life doing this. In fact, too much. So, sometimes I find myself digressing and I'm okay with that. For the most part, I am very responsible. I think...
Smile- Got me here. I will work on doing this more....
