30 Days of Truth – Day 2

Day 02 → Something you love about yourself

Another simple question to me in the 30 Days of Truth thing. I honestly (because it’s too easy to list my breasts, eyes, or even smile lol) love my personality, and yes maybe that’s a cop out answer but I do. I am wild, silly, loving, caring, funny, and unique. I’m me and I don’t even care really if you don’t like me at all .. :ahem my mother and a lot of the husband’s family: I don’t care if you don’t think my jokes are funny, or you think that I’m weird because I have a slight problem with the whole stop talking thing.

I grew up being taught to be myself and if no one likes it they can kick rocks. I could nave easily spent my life trying to be my sister or brother in hopes that my mother would like me, or that girl from school all the boys liked … but I didn’t. I was and am Brandy in EVERYTHING  I do. My grandma always told me life was too short to try and please people, plus you can’t possibly please everyone at the same time so why not focus on pleasing yourself first and those around you will fall into place or fall out of line.

30 Days of Truth: Day 1

I’ve been reading Misadventures In Baby Raising‘s blog about a month long challenge called 30 Days of Truth this was really interesting to me but I didn’t have the time to put into it when she started it. She said that she found this meme through Angel Believes. I think this is a great one that allows you to open up with only what is comfortable to you. So with this out of the way here is Day  1’s topic:

Day 01 → Something you hate about yourself.

This is an easy one. I have a few things I hate about myself .. my acne, my insomnia, my eeth, my belly fat etc, but if the point is getting personal that doesn’t cut it does it? I would have to say what I hate about myself is that I’m a BIG procrastinator. I don’t know when it started but I am and I hate it. I have SO many things I WANT to do but when it comes to doing it … eh I don’t really want to do it THAT bad. It’s so freaking annoying, though I have gotten better about it.

I think that it goes back to at my mother’s house. After school we had a list of chores to do 9 times out of 10, and when I say we, I was usually the one trying to get it all done instead of last minute. Once I moved out and in with Jeff, his mom did a lot of things for him and it was hard and awkward for me trying to fit into her routine. I think this is where it started. As we’ve grown it just gets worse and worse. I get a list of what NEEDS to be done and I get so overwhelmed that I don’t want to do it. I always say ‘well if you help me then I would do it more often’ but sometimes even that’s a bluff. I just dislike feeling like I’m doing all of this by myself, even if I AM a stay at home house wife …. that doesn’t mean I need to do it all (but that’s another rant for another day).

So that is what my truth is for today …. be sure to check back and if you are doing this link me up as I’d love to read it.
