I don't like to watch the Tele

i don't like to watch the tele,
especially the news.
i'd rather play football then
watch it monday night.

i like a good film now and again,
mostly for background noise.
there are times i feel so lazy,
i can hardly move a muscle.

there are days i cannot be stopped,
when i decide to go.
i get so tired at the end of a day,
my eyes will cross, my toes cry out
"stop! and let me be!"

my heart beats loudly in my ears,
like quasimodo found a new home
i don't like to sit around and stare
my walls are white and plain

but that is not what bothers me
i like them white it looks so clean
it's sitting, wondering
"how else will i fill my time?"

i don't need people every moment of my day
in fact i'd rather shoot my toe,
with a gun and buck shot
blow it clean away

i only do what i must
because i know it's right
however
without my right toe
i'd be watching football
every monday night

Making some changes

I'm always busy. If there is one thing people know about me...I'm always busy. Lately, I feel the need to take it down a notch. For years, people tell me I do too much. I think others, do too little. We have so much time in the day, where do we spend it? However, as of late, I have been so exhausted, that can't be a good thing. Tired is one thing, but exhausted? That's a whole other story! So, I am preparing to take the necessary steps to change what I am doing.

I want to make a list of things I want to focus on for the next month. I figure if I take it one month at a time, I will get all the things I want to get done...done! It's hard deciding what to cut out of the schedule...so many fun and worthwhile activities to choose from. We'll see how it goes!
