Today I was going to write a post about fr’enemies. But decided that the last thing I ever intended this blog to be was a place where negativity breeds. Then I was going to post some photos of an outfit I wore the other day. But I deleted the photos before I had imported them. I was going to find a way to be witty and funny today but apparently, today I’m neither of those things. Heck, today I’m not entirely sure I’m capable of this post. We’ll see I guess. Sooner rather than later.
I was going to make my husband dinner but he’s sort of come to rely on it being my thing, so I’m not going to. Shake it up a little and all that. So we’ll probably have take-out. I was going to bring the towels in off the line but they got rained on. Soon I’ll have to bring them back in to wash again. I was going to vacuum our floors but I don’t think we actually have a vacuum cleaner… I found a broom in my travels. Clearly I’m housewife of the year.
I was going to take a nap this afternoon to make up for only getting 4 1/2 hours sleep last night. But it turns out I had things to do this afternoon that couldn’t wait. I was going to wake up early and exercise to combat the blahs. And I did. Thank goodness. It’s the only thing getting me through right now. I was going to wash my car but it’s raining again. I refuse to have a perfectly clean car ruined by another wet trip on the highway. It almost annoys me as much as dirty dishes after I’ve set the dishwasher to go.
It turns out I was going to do a lot of things today. Some important, some not so much. I can’t be sad I didn’t do the things I didn’t do. I did the things I did and that’s enough for me today. You have to take your wins where you get them, right? A productive day of things I didn’t know I had to do. I regret nothing.
Hi! I’m Suger; Chief Blogger at Suger Coat It. Blogging since 1901; love a casual ootd, taking photos + writing about things that irk or inspire me. I love wine and cheese, long days at the beach and spending time with my family. I make stuff for the internet; photos, create content, write copy and devise social media plans for personal brands, small businesses and bloggers. You know, living the sweet life.
I would have liked to read the post about Frenemies. I am having this particular issue with someone at the moment and am really not too sure how to handle it.
The trouble with me is, I do not have a good poker face. I find it very hard to pretend I like someone when I’m not the worlds biggest fan of them. Whereas this other person is very good at pretending to be a friend to my face and then beyotching about me behind my back. What she does not realise is everyone she is beyotching to is telling me all about it, and this makes it really hard for me to pretend like everything is just peachy with her.
So, if you want to write the post I’d love to read it, whether it is negative or perhaps looking for positives to take from the negative.. because that is what I am trying very hard to do right now, find positives in this unhappy situation.
Let me look into it and see if I can reframe it for you. It really was just a big whinge. Not helpful at all. The situation you find yourself in is horrid, sorry to hear that. I think it’s time to call her out in front of the people who are dobbing her in and clear the air. To be honest I always find these things end up exaggerated in second and third hand accounts. Good luck!!
Do people really wash clothes after they’ve been rained on? Our washing gets rained on, I just wait till it dries again, and then bring it inside. Housewife fail.
Only after a couple of days of rain… For me anyway. Haha.
You just described my every Saturday. I thought I was the Queen of Procrastination and “GonnaDo”!
I love that you aren’t stressing about it – I always try to let it go otherwise I get shitty with myself! Focus on the I Did What I Pleased part 🙂
Haha. Royalty, on my blog, I’m touched! Love it. There’s no point being cranky at yourself, the rebel that had you sit on your butt in the first place will only dig her heels in. Well that’s my experience anyway. I’m just not very good at being told what to do!!
