My goal for the next week is to "just say something nice, or not saying anything at all." Mostly it is because things are so rough right now that I'm going to have to make a concerted effort to see the good in anything.
So for the next week I will share a happy picture, a happy thought, and do one happy sort of thing for me.
I read a book at the library last week (sometimes, in my infinite boredom, I go to the library and read a whole book while I'm there) that said you should spend an hour each day both job hunting and man hunting. I found it amusing. So I'm taking the theory, and applying it slightly differently. I'm going to continue to spend an hour each day job hunting, and I will now spend an hour every day looking for a life. Because, oh man, I need one!
So the significance of the picture above? On Friday I went up to Ruth's Diner in Parley's Canyon and had a great bbq sandwich. It's always beautiful up there, and this week was no disappointment as the leaves around the diner had already changed colors. It was lovely.
I've had similar moments of resolve to stop complaining or criticising. Right now my resolve is to stop complaining about mothering. I don't do it much anymore. I'd like to do it not at all.
