Read All About It

I wake up everyday doing the things I used to do. Being a person who desires to become someone in this world has an endless job of making one’s life pleasant enough to reach one’s ambitions and dreams. Taking every opportunity to succeed and not mess up in everything that I do. Everyday I tried to be someone I dreamed of. But because of this I miss what’s the real meaning of life and how to deal with it with happiness. It’s so tiring that everyday you have to please people so that they would notice how good you are, and also to satisfy yourself that at the end of the day you could say you have done well. If everyday of my life is like this then nothing will happen. I might get the things I want but I’m pretty sure that one day I’ll regret it all for missing what is more significant in this in one’s life’s journey. So now as I start a new day of my life I’ll try to make it different not in a sense of messing up but try to do the things that really matters. And that at the end of my day and someone will ask me how was my day I could say “I live it well and my day is a great day to be happy.”

Last weekend my shopping spree for back to school items turned into a complete nightmare! Each store I entered became more and more crowded as the day progressed. The isles were crowded and the check-out lines were unbearable. Saturday I made it my mission to go straight for the school supply list items only. My children’s’ schools have very specific supplies listed and I had to cover five different stores to accomplish this almost insurmountable task! Sunday morning I headed out early for school uniforms. I wasted no time gingerly dragging my kids from department store to department store. After several failed attempts to locate uniforms we could all agree on, I resigned myself to the fact that going to our local school uniform shop and paying an outrageous price for uniforms was the only sure way out of the quandary and the crowds. We made a mad dash for the uniform shop, purchased our wares and made it home just in time to prepare dinner. So there it is in a nutshell; my entire weekend sucked up in one huge shopping nightmare!

My son is my life he is a bit strange though. He is about 7 months old but has always been a few months ahead of his peers. This makes me happy but worried that he will not fit in with his age group when he gets older. Another weird thing about him is when we buy him toys, he doesn’t like the toy. He seems to like simple things like the box the toy came in or an empty pop bottle. This makes me a bit crazy but makes me proud that he might not be like the other kids and want everything. He likes the simple things which I wish I could get back to one day. He loves climbing and hair, always with the two. If he can get to hair and climb at the same time, he is so content it’s cute. I think if all of us just looked at our kids before they get interested in 2 million things we might realize how complicated we have made our adult world. Maybe we should just relax and breathe, but that’s my own theory. We should all look to our kids for calm.

“The Closer” on TNT has to be the most annoying series on TV but I love it and it’s a never-miss for me. Kyra Sedgwick has long been one of my favorite actresses and I was so happy that she decided to do a TV series. When it first aired, I was afraid it would be too heavy on crime/drama but it has been a clever mix of drama along with a lot of light touches which keeps the show from bogging down into the depths of blackness. Just the individual quirkiness of the large cast is enough to add bits of comedy to each episode. She does, however, stretch a lot of rules and regulations, to say nothing of the truth, in her quest to solve cases so I hope the writers don’t go off the deep end and have her become totally unethical. She’s on the border now of being a total “user” of people, even her loved ones, and there’s a really fine line that could be easily crossed. I’ve seen every episode since the series started and I plan to stay with it as long as there’s some credibility and like-ability in each character.
