My work schedule isn't like the average person's work schedule. I work some weekends and have off on weekdays. So my weekdays off, most people are at work and can't play with me.

Therefore, my days off usually consist of an apartment or wifely duty. This means grocery shopping, laundry, cleaning, organizing...the list goes on and on. And if you recall my complaints about "coasting", it was just these days off that have come to make me quite crazy. It was the same day after day after day.

Well, today I broke that record and it felt pretty great. I didn't do one errand that wasn't for me and I didn't wash a dish or organize one thing in my apartment. And it felt pretty great.

I slept in until 10 and I am not ashamed. I had a very work driven weekend and it was nice to play a little catch up with my exhaustion.

 After my nice sleep, I had a very abnormally large cup of coffee that I definitely savored.Did some blog reading, watched some morning television and dragged myself into the shower at a time many people are sitting down to their lunch.

 

It was then I made the decision to make a trip to do a hair refresher. My poor hair has been in need of some serious highlights and a spruce up of my new short do.' This whole short hair thing has been growing on me but I needed to give it one last try. Many foils later, I was refreshed with new highlights for fall and a freshened hair cut.

And then I might have made a stop to the dreadful place called Wal-Mart. I mean, we do need to eat so some food was necessary for a proper dinner. Well, I think the universe was yelling at me for ending my me day. Because let's just say I walked out of there with not a single thing even though I had shopped and had a cart full of stuff. (No I didn't steal!) I just find it a little crazy I have to wait in line longer than my actual shopping trip.

Walmart: "Let's buy 30 cash registers and only keep 2 open!"

I was also able to squeeze in some time to do some fun editing for our honeymoon video! It is a fun side hobby that I like to do. OR pretend I am good at and I can't wait to be finished and share with all of you.

"A" helped end my night with the Pretty Little Liars finale. Yes, I love this show and was way too excited for #WorldWarA.  And my thoughts are... didn't we do the whole boyfriend is "A" thing before? I am just having a hard time convincing myself it is Ezra. 

So you take days of rest on your days off? What do you like to do?

Where am I coasting to?

Ever feel like you are just coasting along?

I wish I was coasting here

The days just keep going by and the same thing happens every single day and you are just butting your head at the ceiling trying to get out of this never ending flow.

It seems I have gotten myself in the awful, peace less flow and I need to get out of it.

My days consist of going to a job that is slowly but surely eating me alive 

Why yes, I am educated and smart, you ungrateful human being of a person.

 Then I come home to an apartment that never seems to be clean or organized. What's that about?

Maybe that's why..

My days off are grocery shopping, cleaning. Grocery shopping, laundry. Cleaning, organizing. 

Even though this sounds like the MILF life I desire, I assure you, it is not even close.

And my weekends are also spent at the previous job responsible for eating me alive. 

So husband, how are you enjoying your night out with all our friends wifeless?

Does this sound like a fun way to live? No, it's not. I am at the point where I want to give my two weeks notice, throw all the stuff away in our apartment and move with my husband across the country. 

Is that too much to ask?

Yea, but that's not real life, Krista.

Oh, well in that case...

I still want to throw everything away and get brand new things and hire a maid and professional organizer to make it look pretty so I can stop spending 80% of my time organizing and cleaning. 

I don't have time to even write a well meaning blog post because I look around and see everything I should and need to be doing. Or my nice husband reminds me ;) 

I want to get out of this flow. I want to get rid of everything that is cluttering my life. And I want to get back to having good blog posts and writing. I truly miss it. Who wants cleaning as their hobby?

Goals for August:

Come up with a game plan to get a new job (online courses. quitting?)

 Throw away at least 40% of my storage unit (new things are always better anyway for our future house)

Put our wedding album together to have something pretty to look at on bad days

And you are welcome for the most random, all over the place blog post. 


If this post scared you, please come back soon anyways because I have been asked to review some wine glasses and you know where the best blog posts come from , am I right?
