I'm busy, it's NAP TIME!

This happens more often then I care to admit, and.... It's usually the best sleep I've had in weeks! 

Police reports: Never fun when your in a hurry

You wouldn't just get up and run with a loaded gun for fun?  You certainly wouldn't lob it to your friend all willy nilly? Because you could kill them! Seems stupid of me to point out I'm sure...  But I was reminded today, just how stupid people can "seem" when they're driving.  I'm sure the a-hole (my nickname for "him") that almost hit me today...wasn't stupid, BUT for a split second, a momentary laps where he stop paying attention to what he was doing, he could have killed, or hurt us both.  He was texting.  BUT texting is really just one example, of what people do other than "drive" while they're driving.   I make mistake too.  We all do, especially, once we get used to or comfortable with something...like driving.  Next time you're about to pick that phone up, while your driving.... Use the loaded gun analogy. THAT is a mistake I doubt you would EVER make! "Woopsy doodle...  I forgot the gun was loaded" Probably not!  Slow down, and pay attention, when your driving!  It's for the good of all of us.  Patience is a virtue after all!  :) 

The winter is upon us!  Making making the roads a extra "death trapy"!  Be safe, be patient, and pay attention! I almost got hurt today! Luckily...I was paying attention :)  

And slow down...  
Cheers!

CALM DOWN! Clean your box!

The Before.... 
I feel disorganized.  Chaotic almost.  I have a million things to do, and haven't a clue where to start.  611 messages, 223 unread.  FAK my life! AND, It's only TUESDAY!   Naturally, rather than deal with my chaos..I "surf the web".... (I hate that saying, but had to plug it in! lol) I read a million and one articles on getting organized, "sorting through the chaos", becoming more efficient... blah blah blah!  The best piece of advise I found myself? Clean your Inbox Bitch!  So simple... and yet so bang ON!  Sooo,  I tried it out.  Try it out! I'm not going to preach.  You won't know how this simple task will be working for you, until you do it!  Clean your box. File all your emails!  It's a clean slate busy beavers. 

The life of Lisa AFTER... 
Inbox still clean! Shit together!  Weird.   I have managed to move mountains recently.  Odd.... because I am not sure how "this" works, but...  I'm focus, efficient, and I know EXACTLY what needs to get done these days.  My Christmas list- done! House- decorated. All laundry- done! (This may be the Christmas miracle I have been waiting for :P) A whole day of cooking/baking while drinking my homemade Irish cream- AMAZING!  I'm "making time" for the first time in... well...for the first time.  Coincidence that my new found clarity and focus coincides with cleaning my inbox?  Maybe?  Maybe not?  Try it and let me know..... 

Cheers....
Stay tuned for the Homemade Irish Cream Recipe I speak of above...  dee-double-licious! 

Peace & Love,

Blunt Tip: No EXCEPTIONS

YOU are not the EXCEPTION to the rules! EVER!!!

My Rant: 
We all have to work for what we want out of life.  We all have to do things we don't like.  The rules of the road, apply to all of us.  We all have to pay taxes.  The law is the law! Do you get the point yet? LOL... My point: There is no circumsatnce in life that makes you the exception or "special" enough that "things" should be different for YOU...   and only you.  Life is hard.    But what doesn't kill you... right?
BA BAM... My Tip: 
Stop blaming you problems on everyone else. Accept, that where you are TODAY, is all because of the choices you have made! You can accept it, or you can choose to change it. But, stop expecting some miracle to fix or figure out your shit! It won't happen!  Work hard, BE PROUD, be smart with your pennies, live within your means, and be kind!  Treat others as you would want to be treated.... You are not the exception. Be grateful when people offer you some help and don't EXPECT anyone to take care of your shat for you!  

Welcome to "Life lesson 101" lol....   I'm not wrong, I just say it a lot more bluntly than most!   

Oh Happy day Y'all :) Cheers,
Guacamole Lisa xo

Boot Me.

This should have been my post on September 22nd (the second day of fall) but our weather has been exceptional this year.  Fast forward to today.  Current weather conditions: cold, grey and gloomy. It's not full on raining, just a lovely cold mist.  Ewwww!   I'm not surprised.... It's December and this IS Canada! It Just. Looks. Cold.   MY silver lining... IT'S BOOT SEASON!  Flip your flops, put the stinky flats away, girls, we need socks, it's official!  Boot Season is upon us!  Skinny jeans, big cozy sweaters, and BOOTS!

Now that it's OFFICIAL... Move to a boot and get laced! :)
