Bootcamp Fun
Do you know those work out videos where the instructor is teaching and behind them are three people doing different variations of the same workout exercise. They suggest you follow based on your level. Well that’s what it’s like working out with these three.
Most of the time when we are finished they ask me to grade them based on how well they did.
It’s a great and funny way to start our day.
Enjoy The Present
Everything is temporary...even love.
I was talking to my friend the other day who started dating again. He’s been great at helping me in the past. He’s a secure attachment style. I had my share of being anxious attachment style that I always envied his capability to date so securely. I remember when I first met him a year and half ago we hung out for 6 hours just talking.
He really helps me look at situations differently.
It’s funny how my other best guy friend is a secure dating type as well. He recently ended a relationship and I knew the minute he said she was anxious and avoidance type at the same time I knew they wouldn’t last.
Why? Because everyone wants a relationship where two people are secure and don’t need eachother. They want to be with eachother. There’s no anxiety or tension or stress. It’s pure enjoyment. Intelligent conversation. As adults you can’t date with a 18 yr old mindset. You have to be mature and secure and so many people do not date that way. Married people
don’t even have adult relationships with eachother. So many date with that younger mind set that creates unnecessary arguments and drama and jealousy.
You have to break the cycle. Everything is temporary you never know how long situations will last but the more secure you become and independent the better off you’ll be.
So many girlfriends I have are avoidance dating types. Focused only on career and themselves. They don’t have time to date. It’s not true. I am divorced mom
Of 3. I work and homeschool all day. It’s not the idea situation but I still make time to date. So it’s not about time. It’s about avoiding something. It’s about saying I am going to stay in my happy bubble alone because I want to avoid issues dating triggers.
I don’t recommend that either. I recommend becoming secure and happy within that you can have healthy discussions and relationships without being anxious or avoidance.
Game Night : Googly Eyes
I didn’t have any meetings planned so I took advantage of the opportunity to have some fun with the kids. I used to be really into board games with them then we took a break now we are back on the band wagon.
Last night we played Googly Eyes. https://www.goliathgames.us/product/googly-eyes/
It’s a lot of fun. It’s like Pictionary but you have to wear these glasses with different distorted lens while you’re trying to draw. It’s pretty funny.
My mom joined us and asked how difficult can it be. Well when she put on the glasses she went to grab the pen and instead grabbed the pen top to write with.
Needles to say it’s not easy to draw while the images are all distorted. There are three different difficulties you can land on and you have to change the lens to match the card. Yellow is easy. Green is medium. Blue is hard.
You also have a set timer. You get 15 secs for easy. 30 secs for medium and 45 secs for hard.
Check it out if you’re looking for a fun game with the kids.
What games do you recommend?
My Wish For You
I hope the wait is worth it. I hope you have goodness in all of yours days. I hope whatever you’re holding on to has been worth your sacrifice. I hope you find what you’ve been waiting for.
