Things I need to stop doing and things I need to work on.

Hello all and a good day to you too!

Well, November was a big bust for me, in more ways than one. First off, let's start by stating that my last post about demoting myself, well that was much needed. Let's just say -- it got a lot worse at my day job.Without getting myself fired....because HR (Higher Ranked people in this so-called 'company') like to Google Stalk everyone, I cannot mention certain things but yeah - let's just say everyone took a sick day at the same damn time. It got worse. So, demoting myself come January sounds like a plan. Besides that little factor, November just plain out sucked.


I had goals for November as far as my writing and my fitness went, but that all went out the window as soon as everyone at my job decided to have a pissing contest for who was sicker. Yes, that's exactly how it happened. One person calls off to say "I'm sick, and I can't get out of bed." AND THEN, The next person calls off and says, "I'm sick and I just passed out in my bathroom floor twice, I can't come in". Which happens to leave me, myself and I doing THREE different people's shift (including my own) for 7 days straight. So I can proudly state that I DID NOT put anything off. I was exhausted.

With that being said, I've started to realize, all too well, that my blog has become a rant about my job. And that's totally NOT what I wanted. So why am I still bitching? Well, hopefully, because my readers can relate. If reader cannot relate, well -- I'm sure it's entertaining. In order to maintain the blog, I must write whatever I think to keep it maintained at this point. So here's my plan. The plan is outlined below, and yes, I really am outlining my blogging plan. It's happening, right now.

You may want to call this my New Year Resolutions in advance.

1. Stop talking about work. I need to stop. It's annoying, and I hate that damn place. Yet, that place is the only topic of conversation for me lately. That's not good. I need to stop. I keep repeating this in my head. 
2. Stop talking and thinking about writing online and just do it. I feel like I really NEED to be in a Nike's commercial. I need to just do it already. Damn, I've only been telling myself this for 5 months.
3. Stop waiting to make a blog post. I do tend to put off making a blog post very often. Mainly because I'm lazy and don't feel like sitting up late blogging about myself. But yet, I wish I was blogging when I'm watching TV. Which leads me to #4.
4. Stop watching so much TV. I watch entirely too much Law and Order: SVU and Storage Wars. I need to stop watching fictional shows. Yes, everyone loves Benson and Stabler -- but I'm obsessed. I can watch an entire 11 hours marathon (if I'm lucky to be off for that day) and never move a muscle. I get sucked in like some sort of trance.
5. Stop talking about negatives things. I do this a lot. Which, I'm not negative but I tend to dwell on whats wrong instead of what could be. Gossip, gossip about work, talking about work...etc. This all drags me down. So I need to stop. I have so much to be thankful and grateful for, I need to be better than bitching about everything I hate. 

These are all things I need to work on. Hopefully, I will focus on these things and work on them. My goal for the next month is to change and direct my thoughts and my actions to reflect my real 'thoughts' in my brain. I just hope that being my own critic can help me become a better person and a better writer.
