Obsessions

I have them. Sometimes they are larger than life and then other times, notsomuch. I don't know about any of you but you know-certain kind of gum or certain kind of linens for your bed, certain kinds of pizza that you like or always want or being obsessed with nail polishes (like only I can be).

I'm thinking that means I am somewhat compulsive. Maybe -maybe not. I'll tell you what I AM most definitely obsessed about and that is the Littlest getting naps. His bedtime. That he gets enough sleep so he's not cranky or that his lack of sleep could ever make him cranky. . crazy thing to be obsessed about but can a human being help what they are obsessed about? In my opinion, no.

I am not (so not) obsessed about cleaning the house. That we can check right off the list. Go ahead, consider it gone, right off the list.

Summer time is a time for festivals. Festivals almost every weekend. I am not obsessed about festivals. Too many people. Food is expensive. PortaPottys galore. Disgusting. Festivals can be fun, and ours are fun, I used to go all the time; BEFORE I had kids. Suddenly the world is so different when you have kids. You think different, you change, and sometimes, you don't know it till you are looking backwards, like me, right now.

I am obsessed about watching gymnastics during the Olympics. And ice skating. And syncronized swimming. I am NOT obsessed about that one sport where they push a weird shaped ball down a shuffleboard looking thing and pray it gets on a certain number and move their arms back and forth like a maniac to help guide it in. That sport, in my opinion, is not a sport. That is, well, I'm not sure WHAT it is. It's R. Fill in the blank.

In the summer I'm kind of obsessed about being tan. Lets get something straight. I don't want to be the kind of tan where I look orange or it's unhealthy. Just a healthy sun kissed summer glow. Some people tan and then stay in the sun constantly. I want no part of leathery skin when I'm a mere 40 years old. People now can never guess my age, and I like it that way, they always think I'm younger than I am. Love that. Healthy sun kissed glow=good. Cancerous orange glow=bad.

We all have them; obsessions. What makes you nutty? What are you obsessed about? I'll tell you one thing, I can do without lists like these. Sorry I'm serving you up a plate of it!

Happy Friday (tomorrow) to all.
