As previously expressed, my life is getting monotinous and boring. Therefore, I have decided that it is time to find some new hobbies (or, as I said on Facebook, my new hobby is to find a new hobby).
I already really enjoy cooking, so I will expand on that I think. Maybe cook fancier on the weekends when I have more time to put into it. I am already a reader as well, but I have a hard time counting reading as a hobby. That is something that, really, everyone should be doing and it doesn't take any special skill or anything. That said, I need to take on more of that (although not too long ago I went through three books in one week, so....). I also already play disc golf but I am REALLY bad at it and I usually leave frustrated and with low self-esteem, and that really is NOT what hobbies are all about.
I need to sit and think about some things I wouldn't mind having as a hobby. I want to learn to sew/knit/crochet. I could stand to learn at least a little bit of a different language. I definitely want to do this more (blogging - I used to be an avid journal writer and I really miss it!!). My goal is to come up with a decent list of things I'd like to incorporate into my life and then just do it. Try it out for awhile and see how I like it.
Stay tuned!

Why have I become such a slacker??
Look at that - it has been since October that I have bothered to do any blogging. Lazy? Maybe. But mostly I think I really have that little to say about anything. Isn't that sad? My life has become so routine that I have nothing exciting to write about anymore.
How does one go about changing that? It is easy to SAY things like "if you want to do something, you have to just do it or you never will do it," but really, it isn't logical or even doable most of the time. Then you just feel bad when people give you that kind of advice. Most of the time I shrug that off because many of the people who say things like that to me don't follow up on anything they say they are going to do anyway (which makes the advice even more frustrating).
Anyway, I'm looking for some excitement and change. Things have been realllyyyyyy monotinous lately. Wake up, get ready for work, make our lunches, ride the bus, go to work, do crossword puzzles on my lunch hour, ride the bus back home, (sometimes go grocery shopping), make dinner, spend the rest of the evening on the couch with Jacob, watching TV. BOR-ING.
Me thinks it's time to shake things up a bit. Let's see what I can do. I think anything would make a difference at this point.
