Aiming for Great...
I don't want to be perfect, if I was I couldn't hang around all of you imperfect people I love so much. Smile! I said I love you! Besides...if I aimed for perfection, I would miss by a mile and I really hate failing. So I aim for Great and I am shooting arrows left and right and even straight down the center. As someone I knew, whom I used to think was perfect, said, "quit aiming and FIRE already!" So I am aiming AND firing.
Having been inspired by a great blogger, http://www.ourlovelymess.com, and a book that I can't remember the name of, I am aiming and firing at the clutter. I am getting there. Living room, check. Kitchen, I thought it was done, but I feel the urge to go back through it again. Downstairs bathroom, check. (That one was easy, there isn't anything in there!) My bathroom, check. My bookshelves, check. (That was a HUGE victory) Zander's room, check. My clothes, check. Here's the deal, check means de-cluttered, not cleaned. My garage is FULL! Swap with friends set for Friday at lunch and Garage sale set for Saturday morning. Now I must complete the de-cluttering by Friday. Aim, Aim....FIRE!
I am aiming and firing at Great parenting. See previous post for details on that. Right now, I'm not sure if I have hit Good parenting. Aiming...
Health. Failing. We have been sick for weeks, with one thing and another. Off to the doctor we go again tomorrow. Haven't done Yoga in forever! Need to see Allergist. Aiming....
School. I am aiming and hitting Great so far! Finally a win.
Valentine's Presents for Family....half done...is it midnight yet? Aim.....zzzz....
Relationships, I have hit Great with some, barely at Good with others. Aim...Aim....Fire! (metaphorical arrows of course!)
What are you aiming at? What are you hitting?
