This is fun to do. Just read the "offense" and if you've done it, you owe that fine. Keep going until you've read each "offense" and added up your total fine. When you are done, post it in your notes. Change the header to "My fine is $........" You don't have to confess your answers, just the amount of your fine.

Tally it up and Title it..."My Fine Is: $..... " Then post
So my son went back to his dad's yesterday afternoon...his dad decided he could take him after all...only 2 days late. Never mind having him the extra couple days - but JJ loves his nan so dearly, he doesnt like to leave her side, so naturally he wears her out, her patience gets thin. Must admit mine has been of late as well, I think the sleepless nights are catching up with me.
I actually sent my resume out for a couple local positions yesterday! Oddly enough Im both scared and excited about returning to the work force. Miss the money definitely, but also the lack of time to spend it - some how when you've got less time to do things, you get more done. Quality time I guess...maybe its just the way I work :)
Im so lucky sometimes - I dont even realise it. Even when things seem really down, and no way out - something happens to snap me back out of it. Found a couple new communities thanks to a new friend here on LJ, and they actually seem busy too, unlike some communities where no one posts to anymore. Wish they had a browsing section though, rather than having to look by a word typed into the search engine. Its like you are limited by your imagination. So I guess it has both its good and bad points.
So its 9am on saturday, and I still havnt slept. Going to get more serious about losing weight again - I cant believe i put on everything I lost last year, knew my ex was bad for me - and my hips it seems. Going to stop being so mean to myself, give myself a break (mentally speaking) and maybe then I wont be so mean to myself, or to the ones I love, theres so few of them after all.
I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
W.B. Yeats
So my world get turned upside down, and yet life proceeds with or without me. Im dumped beneath the waves, and not sure which was is up, but thats when you are suppose to stop and be still, and you will start to rise up naturally, then you know which direction to swim. Atleast this is what Im telling myself, I need time to recooperate, learn to trust myself again before I try to trust anyone else. Ive found out things since he left, and it seems I never really knew him at all. I still dont understand how he could be with someone else and then come back to me as though nothing had happened at all. I have spoken to one of his many, and now I dont know if he was ever true to me. I had wanted him to go, had asked him more than once to leave, but to be betrayed like this actually hurts.
Im not sure how to rebuild my life, but I need to do something, and I dont believe jumping back in the waters of dating are the way to go. Ive had offers come out of the woodwork, which surprised me. But I dont believe any of them are true, just after sex, and Ive had enough of that, I want someone who wont just fight with me, but will fight for me. Who'll be beside me through thick and thin. I want someone I can believe in...but perhaps I need to believe in myself first, be the person I want to be.
Been getting calls last couple days and found out he's hugely in debt, but I dont see how running away will help, it'll still effect his credit rating. How can GROWN men think they can just run away from their problems. He never gave any clue that he was thinking bout leaving - in fact I'ld asked him to go before and he refused point blank. I believe Im better off alone for awhile, get back on my feet, learn to trust myself first. Concertrate on raising my son, on leading a good life and just remembering who I actually am. I dont believe I could trust a man right now, not after everything else I've been through. I deserve a break.
Hold it at a proper distance and it can be examined and properly classified.
Throw it at your feet and it can be seen in its true setting, just one more tiny bump on the pathway of life.
The next time a problem arises, use your imagination to cast it to the ground as quickly as you can. Then you need only step lightly over it and get on with the business of enjoying life.
May you always remember that problems, no matter how big they might seem, are really no larger than your perspective insists they be.
Be the light...give out of love.
HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, "Always do what you are afraid to do." |
This quote is good advice, theres so much in life I have missed out on because I let fear rule me, and now I regret it. I wonder what I could have accomplished if I had more confidence in myself, who'd I'ld really be. But then, my current life isnt real bad, im sure there are some people out there who'd actually be jealous. Sad, lonely people, but all the same I have alot to be grateful for too. My son is the main thing, he gives me a reason to be a good person, to strive for more.
I've decided I need to do something more with my life though, I need some reason to be proud of myself. A course or a job, something to be part of the world again.

If you could be God for a day, what three things would be at the top of your to-do list? Submitted By |
I believe their is more to this question than meets the eye, did you notice how many people would "kill" or "smite" someone? Why would you waste the power you had to hurt someone, as opposed to making someone's life better, even if it was just your own. Why not make some good out of life, instead of something bad? Yet how many of those people dont even believe in god in the first place?
1) Rid the world of disease, so that maybe people would live long enough to enjoy the life they were giving.
2) Make the things that are actually good for us taste delicious and be non-fattening. (fat free chocolate, who wouldnt want that?)
3) Make it so no parent would ever have to outlive their child.
Out of those answers that I read, I found the below to be my favourite -
I would give everyone empathy so they could see the effect they have on others.
Make Education (at all levels) Free, Everywhere
I would make vegetables taste like chocolate so my kids would eat them.
Book List Thing
The Big Read reckons that "the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed.
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who haven't read 6 and force books upon them ;-)
