CHEATER!

Yes.  It happened.  I CHEATED!  Not only did I cheat, but I looked up someone I wasn't even friends with before!  This is even worse because I was TOTALLY passive aggressively stalking this person.  Long story short, I was on FB for work posting something and then I realized I was looking at a facebook of someone I knew but wasn't even friends with.  Instantly, I felt as though I didn't really have to say anything.  No one would know... except me.  But, it would defeat the purpose of this whole thing.  I chose honesty.

So it hit me.  I need to become more conscious of what I am doing with myself.  I made these goals in my first blog about actually doing something instead of Facebooking.  So if I had time to facebook, then I have time to go to the gym.  I went, I joined, and day one was today.  I did it!  I feel great.  I am now posting this blog while taking a break from packing for an early morning gym visit before work tomorrow.

I am focussing as much as possible about DO-ing something.  Cleaning.  Gymin' it up.  Trying to think creatively (I have a project in mind and will probably post something about it soon).  Be here now, if you will.

I find myself thinking of posts in my head while I am out and about or soing something.  I was at Costco buying edamame and a dog bed (first, who goes there to buy two things? Second, the two things are totally random!)  So I am standing there in line and the guy in front of me brought his coupons (Costco has coupons?) a day early and of coarse his purchase turned into a big ol CF (cluster f...).  I so wanted to post it on FB.  Then I thought, who really cares about me being at Costco?

It is a different perspective "looking up" instead of down at my cell phone continuously scanning FB.  It is nice.

I am enjoying this time.  Will do my best to not cheat anymore.  I will continue to focus on being here now and all my goals.
