I'm Sick of this Shit.

Yes. I went ahead and said it.
I am Sick. of. Shit.
Don't get me wrong. I have a shit-ton of stuff to be thankful for, and I can appreciate what I have.

But I am out of time. I want to do a ka-billion things and my time is limited. It annoys me. While I can appreciate the fact that I have a comfy office job within a pleasant environment, it drives me bat-shit crazy to think about all of the things I could be accomplishing if I didn't spend my day getting paid by someone else. Top off these 8 wasted day-light hours with family obligations, cooking/cleaning, and just general exhaustion..and well, you get just about nothing.


For shits and giggles, I will make a list of some things I would do that would not cost me any cash. Because if I had all day, I probably would be a bit short on money.

1. Clean the basement. It smells like mold, must, and dirt. It's gross.


2. Vacuum the dead lady bugs that have been in the corner of my bedroom for um..about 7 years now.


3. Use the paint that I have bought for miscellaneous projects that never got started because I haven't had time.


4. Laundry. And then I would hang it out to dry.


5. Sew something. Knit something. Paint something. Yes, I have all of the materials for said projects. I just don't have the time.


6. Plan meals. I love cooking and baking. But since I have no time to plan, I end up throwing shit together at the last minute and we eat in front of the television. It sucks, although I am reaaallly good at Cash Cab.


7. Wash my windows. Which would look awesome after I painted the outside trim (See #3), washed the curtains (See #4) and repaired or made new accessories (See #5).


8. Blog the shit out of my Blog. Get followers. Get famous by blogging about all of the great shit I do now that I have time (See all of the above).


9. Research and write some articles for submission. Practice up to write a book and pick a couple main ideas to play around with.


10. Clean and organize my closet. I have a lot of nice clothes, shoes and accessories that are piled everywhere. Sometimes I can't wear something because it is so wrinkled from laying in a pile on the floor.


11. Rest. In my bed that would get made every day, on my pillows that would be fluffed every day.

Ah. Dreams. How do some people do it? Have I spread myself too thin or do I just totally suck at time management? Sometimes I think that I wouldn't be so annoyed with my job if I could just catch up a little bit at home. I would love some input on this subject - what works for you?
