Getting on track. Loosing grip. That's been the cycle recently. The part that has me excited is getting on track because it takes a lot of work for me to do such a thing! It's easy to loose control and let things such as bills, car work, general "real life" stuff, go spiraling from your grasp. I am quickly learning that trying to get these things to be manageable all at once just sets me up for failure, that I have to go about it one or two things at a time.
The biggest struggle currently is keeping school under control. I managed to get caught up and then let things go again and am now getting caught up on work once more. It's been easier getting out of bed lately and just get going which has been nice considering just a few weeks ago and a great deal of the previous years were difficult. It was a chore. And some days it still is, but I'm recognizing that this isn't something I want to fall back to on a regular basis.
My next big clean up I want to get under my belt will be my financial mess. While money wise, I'm doing well enough, paying bills on time is a whole other story. It seems such a daunting task to go through and one, organize all of my piles of bills, paychecks, paper work, loan crap, and other odds and ends, and two, face the music, figure out how bad my credit is and try and fix it as well as I can. I would also like to work on this part as quickly as possible knowing that I may find myself needing a good loan in the near future.
On top of all this are just little tasks and projects that I like to keep myself busy with, little things to make me happy really, cleaning, organizing, drawing, writing. I would also like to get in a good novel or two over break if I have time.
I got to keep the negative away. Life is too good for that shit.
