Pulling Weeds

I was out in the back yard.  It's a rite of spring to rid one's garden of weeds.

I think that we should do this act in our lives as well.

Somethings that we tolerate (and even enjoy) might not be the best for us.

Many people start each  January 1 with a list of resolutions to do better, work harder, think smarter, be thinner, be richer, save more money, etc.

I am going to pull some of the weeds in my life.

1.  I am going to buy a pair of athletic shoes that fit.  The shoes that I'm wearing now were a gift.....that I got about ten years ago.....they looked great.....about ten years ago.  I can't say they ever really fit.

2.  Today, I'm going to clean the refrigerator and get rid of the old salad dressings that Bill and I don't use.  When my refrigerator is organized, I feel like my life is organized.  This one is a no brainer.

3.  I am going to send via the US Mail a project that has been on my desk for almost a year.  I mean to drop it by Central to one of my teacher friends everytime I go to town.  I'm a slacker.  No excuses.  I just procrastinated.  It has traveled at least 20,000 miles with me this year.

4.  I'm going to the garden and finish pulling some real weeds.

Speaking of weeds, have you watched the HBO show "Weeds"?  That Nancy is a hot mess.
