26 days to my birthday

road trip day!

Greetings Thinkers,

Leaving for a little trip today. Still have all the stuff to do, to be "ready" to leave.

Yesterday did not go as expected thus I did not get done, what I was after getting done.

In my line of work, sometimes I have to be ready on NO NOTICE to drop everything and go pick up a huge haul of pink Christmas stuff.

It's the part of the line of work that goes with my love of getting stuff, dumpster diving, salvaging stuff, figuring out how to give new life to someone else's unwanted things. Going great lengths to keep things out of the trash.

So when someone says: "do you want this?", I have a policy of saying YES and that yes is to all of it. I don't cherry pick. Meaning I take all the stuff so part of the exchange to make it a mutually benefitting, is to take it all so they don't have to deal with it. This is generally speaking.

So at 3pm when I got the text that this stuff needed to be gone before Thursday and my timeline consisted of a trip I was leaving for tomorrow, which is now today, meant if I wanted it, I had to do it NOW. I had to leave that minute. If I wanted the stuff, I had to drop everything to do it, and I did.

Instead of spending the rest of of my day as intended, doing what was on my list to be doing to get ready to leave for this little trip, I spent it hauling stuff for the rest of the day until I ran out of daylight.

I should have gotten a trailer.

Instead I did THREE round trips at 40 minutes a piece for 3 loads of PINK CHRISTMAS stuff, all the while thinking: is it ironic that this abundance of stuff I'm getting is PINK? Ironic because the only color in the world I really dislike is pink.

So there I am with a HUGE haul of PINK Christmas stuff, 5 hours into a project I didn't know I had when the day started, getting home late and tired and feeling a little insane, thinking up an idea for what to dow with all this stuff! That headline is currently reading in my head as:

Pink Sugar Christmas in July

Rosé and Pink and Sugar Christmas themed stuff. July. Barn Sale.

Where did Christmas in July come from in the first place? I think I know that's a thing.. Gotta look it up or putting it here, one of you might tell me!

I'm still sore from the 1 time to the gym I did recently. I did reorder the stuff of that box I lost. $300 out the window for now. I wrote a while list while thinking and driving, of things like" when a doctor saves your life, does it mean you helped him too" - on a bender on that topic right now it seems. Activated.

so much pink stuff... it feels a little insane..

What does PINK have to do with you today?

Things you could know about me:

order: newest adds at the top, older things at the bottom

vague. I don't like vague. don't be vague with me, I won't be vague with you. at least not on purpose.

defines WEIGHT as: the quality of the quantity of matter you are carrying

I like to antagonize common sayings and typical perspectives

Everything is a choice and authenticity is supreme.

Reflecting on my life whether it's looking back at the last month or doing a "this time last year" thing, shorter or longer time frames, doing this at all is a reflection of who I am. That I care to consider who I am, who I have been, what I have done, so that I may use all of that to inform what I do and who I am in the present and the future. That I reflect is a reflection of who I am.

running with turtles

I know, I'm a horror to say anything to some times..

when all my identities are umbrellas

I love a good double negative!

Plan in quotes because I'm so averse to "plans" and "goals".

I chunk out my days, to the minute, in Gcal.

I love to putter so if it becomes "I puttered my life away" so be it.

I'm not a cherry picker, of anything. I like to use things that exist rather than start from new or scratch.

I am an ostrich about politics, news, current events, pop culture and media.

I dislike clichés and most positive quotes, under thought things meant well, commonly said quotes and phrases.

Don't tell me what to do, don't ask me "how how are you?" or say "I'm sorry for your loss" unless you want to annoy me or you really, really mean it. And know it can be hard to tell which it is, and I'm wrong not infrequently.

30 Day Challenges are my thing. I have a tendency to make things every day things. This is where 30 Day Challenges come from!

Like yourself. Know yourself. Express that self.
Think about things. Don't feel like you have to dance in the rain to have a good life.
Don't have a plan. Stand for what matters. Read when you want to. Don't smile when people tell you to.
Don't have goal. Tend plants. Leave marks. Do what you say. Change YOUR world. And your mind!
Be a friend and a daughter and a partner and a sister and a dog mom.
In a world full of "accept who you are" messages, don't forget to be a "work on that" kind of person.
Don't put kindness above truth. Try new things. Be honest. Live by ideals. Have some whimsy.
What you do for money matters; strive to like what you do for money. (job)
If you have a hobby you need a life.
Use what attracts you and let what you care about matter!

Peepers are my favorite sound.

Triangles are my favorite shape.

54 is my number.

I never need to talk but thank you for offering to listen.

If you say I'm overthinking it, I'll probably say you are underthinkig it.

why I do what I do: I want to "make you" THINK. I don't mind if your experience and perception of me "makes you" be more mindful, use your brain more, "think too much" or consider something more carefully, or differently, or moves you to be (more) thoughtful or intentional or authentic.

I am a hugger and I mean my hugs.

I don't like to have scheduled things. The days where I have something scheduled are a certain category of feeling. I'm not very fond of pre sign ups, committing to things in advance externally. My favorite days are the ones I call "blank slate days". Nothing scheduled, nothing formally EXTERNALLY committed (I am full of internal commitment and ideas all the time, so no day is truly uncommitted).

use the moons

I love rules and I am a ruler follower.

I like a cup to fill.

So which is it Kym. Do you like wide open clean slate no commitment things?
Or you "need" want and thrive in containers, defined spaces, rules and limits?

Geez what a walking contradiction. A biggest when to which Witch!?

SOC life - what you allow in, turns into what you spend your time on. Can you see it?

Tomb raider hot is my favorite kind of girl hot, my favorite hot to be.
