Plans to Make Next Year, (Almost), Perfect ;)

   Well, ya'll, October is almost over.


I can't believe it.  Only two more months and then 2014 is over.  O-V-E-R.  It's so sad.

If you all hadn't been able to tell already, I'm a bit of a procrastinator.  No, really!  I know how hard it is to believe; with me always have Tacit Tuesdays on time, and such. ;)  But, it's not that I want to put things off.  I mean, I'm not constantly thinking to myself, "Oh, I'll just do this later."  I just waste time.  I'm the world's worst time waster.  I mean, I'm busy!  I don't lay around the house all day.  I just manage to do lots of things, without getting anything done.  Long story short; I'm behind.  In blogging.  In reading blogs.  In responding to emails.  In walking my dog and cleaning my room.  In school.  Especially school.

My life is busy.  In any given week, we are out of the house, all day, or at least all morning, about 2, or 3, times during the 5 day work week.  High school is 5 full days.  So, obviously I have a problem already.  But, you see, my real problem is that I don't do school when I get home after those half days.  My problem is that I don't do school after dinner, or on the weekend.  My problem is that I think my school will just eventually get done, rather than me actually getting my butt out there to do it.

But I'm learning.  And I'm working on it.  One of my big motivators that made me focus was the prospect of a BIG trip with my grandparents next spring.  Like a fly-out-to-California-then-drive-back-home-with-my-grandparents-visiting-land-marks-along-the-way kind of big.  While the trip is less than shaky, I really would like to be ready and able to go if it works out.

   So, to bring this all back around to blogging; I'm going to try to take a different approach to my blog.  So far it has been a constant "catching-up."  Often I end up rambling rather than saying anything really worth saying.  I'm going to try to change that.  Rather then just thinking, "Oh, I haven't posted in a couple days, I'll ramble about something," I'm going to schedule posts.  I'm going to actually try to say something worth while.  I have a ton of post ideas; some even written completely out!  I know I won't always get posts out on time.  I know that I'll still ramble plenty.  But hopefully I can improve my output while still keeping the same friendly feel that I hope you all love.

This isn't an official post.  I started out trying to make it one, but low and behold, I rambled.  Oh well.  My grandparents are here all this week, and then as soon as they leave the next 3 days are packed.  I'm sorry for any of you whose blogs I follow; I'm so behind in reading and commenting.  I promise I will eventually read all of them.  I might not end up commenting, but please know that I read it and loved it. =)  Also I'm sorry on responding to comments.  I am reading all of them and they are all making me smile.  The biggest thing is that I can only respond to comments and read blogs on my laptop; not my phone.

This was a very long post. Sorry.  Kinda.  Okay, not really. ;)

~Love Jess

ps.  My wonderful sister's birthday is tomorrow!  If you all would be the best followers ever and go to her blog and comment; she would be thrilled!  I'm going to post on her blog in a minute to give you a post to comment on, but the URL to her blog is: http://awesomecowgirl.blogspot.com/ Her posts are cute and funny.  I need to repair her "FOLLOWER" button, but if you want to follow via your home page, please do that.  I'm sure she will be so happy!  =)  Thanks! <3

pps. I would put some pictures to break up this really long span of text, but my internet is not being friendly tonight =(  I'll try to add pictures to this post tomorrow.  Sorry!

  1. I'm with you on the procrastinating Jessica, it seems things keep just piling up and I'm still lying around the house doing nothing. ;P What I've been trying to do is cut out my main distraction, movies. Which hasn't been as easy as I thought. =P Sounds like a good idea, even if we do like your rambling. =) Well, happy birthday Julia! =D
    Hum, I probably need to stop procrastinating about school and get off the computer. But I'm I going to? No. ;)

  2. One thing that I have found easier to get my work done wwaaayyyy earlier, is getting up earlier! Even 8:30, as long as I don't sit around I can all my school by 11:30 or so. Sure, I don't like getting up early at all, but once I'm up I enjoy it much more and find more time to do other things in the day! :D I like random posts! :D Ohhh, don't say that! Only two more months?!!! I didn't even think of that... :( ....2015.......Yeek..
    Happy birthday, Julia!
