During off time this week I decided to do some food-stylist type activity in my kitchen. Eating right foods is difficult as it is when something quick and ready to eat is less satisfying. The way food looks on a plate also helps in deciding what to eat.
Pay close attention to the television and any of the +Food Network programs. Usually when the chefs are preparing something to eat in their kitchens, all of the utensils and foods are out on the countertop for quick and easy preparation.
Food Style works hand in hand with an easy to navigate cooking and prep area. Does the inside of you're refrigerator look like something only used to store take out leftovers? Can you visualize what items you've got on hand in your pantry cabinets without looking? If you want to prepare a meal using what is in your pantry, do you first need to clear a sink full of dishes? Do you unload and put away dishes from the dish washer shortly after they've been washed or wait until the next load needs to go in?
These are just a few thoughts. For me, the joy of cooking and preparing meals gets lost when I try to begin from a messy prep station. Try to think 2 or 3 meals in advance when cooking meals at home. Remember not every time you want to make a meal going to the grocery store might not be an option.
Right now decide- is there anything in your freezer that could be defrosted? What seasoning will be used to prepare fish, beef or poultry? Do you find yourself more likely to make heavy hourdurvs for breakfast lunch and dinner? What does your idea practical meal look like?
Eat what you feel comfortable preparing. Imagine every meal you make being featured on television.
Marinade something ahead of time then be marveled. The most amazing meal Ive had in weeks came from my kitchen pantry at home.

Set better examples to better yourself
Driving along on my way to find a spot to park for a time today. I thought back to the times I wish I had payed more attention in class. So many topics I want to bring to attention but my pen and scratchpad were not within safe distance to reach for. I Want to do better by setting an example of how to be where you are. Not being distracted and preoccupied about where else you want to be or go. My immediate initial thought to just stop at Destination 'A' to enjoy Destination 'B' to return to destination 'C' calm refreshed awake and ready to do what has to be done. To continue momentum. Somewhere along the way, this point becomes vague. How come i just cant seem to be less aware of what is going on around me. Even when there's not much happening?
Adult conversation avoidance
In every way I believe this is a way to conquer free- down- sick- time. Sleep. What is my time? What gage is set? What am I wanting to prove? What is this to be criticized?lallygagging my focus is compartmentalized- scheduled- pre consumed, therefore i aim to focus outside the box. of what is my time? listening- watching- for something be criticized. Picking fights with a news crew just for drama. What I was doing at the beginning? Believing this whisper of how an intuition gift should be cherished and nurtured. First I need to read less newsprint. How do I know what I lack? When this is poured. when I know I claim this as writitng for hours a skill (I become critical and downplay) rather fill pages with words from within, the book-a book, gets left out of this free think flow. Invested. Pour.
Write music instead but I dont like that rhythm- I cant make that sound -It doesnt move, or ask, or count, or want my opinion. Its not crowded or ashamed or unclear and recognizes superiority.
Poor study skills in an idea space when I'm lonely surrounded by friends. Home-sick and disagreeable. Inaccurate transcripts of Blue and Red. Misrepresentations Losing the luxury of being comfortable while trying to write about how my words want to speak for themselves. a way to ignore what i don't want to sort out or move against or be slowed down by or confronted about. Fitness where some studies have naturally called me to reproduce on.

| Navytimes ran a article about the closing of some base theaters. Due to extensive budget reviews several military base theaters will be discontinued. The reason I gathered from reading is a matter of cost relating to the expense of upgrading some outdated facilities. On base theaters are competing with a demand for Imax ready cinemas that have become popular off base. Fortunately the Navy decided to compensate by upgrading. |
Here's to a completely sober funny bone
Here's to this bottle of wine going down the drain in my money pit. Heres to that devoured bird. Here’s to recycling. Heres to this stadium being filled and heres to building better leaders. Heres to fueling my ego and believing. Heres to mention of the sideways pulpit and finally, heres to making appointments. Ive completely misplaced my audience. What do you want to learn today? Will you respond to this writing with friendliness or hostility? BTW enough with the formalities, I can barely drive as it is. How are your demographics and attitudes again?
seems you’ve stumbled across this bit of internet fart from my desk because I have no grasp on the meaning of ‘world wide web’.

Many many verses from a great poet have me mused at the moment. (Fightin was real, livin was hell.) Reading them over and over only help me to find the reason my 484 seems to be staring over my shoulder, out of patience, overworked and underpaid. Not my fault someone knows how to work themselves out of a job. We could do this all day but cant get over the deep seated burn by my side that ensues. Oh this hook I’ve grown to love so dearly with plugged ears might be the reason these hours and minutes seem to never take away, never seem to interact or respond. My ear has long been away from the sound of these implosive groans begging for more room. I see flowers and think, how disgusting! those little devils! making a stink and doin it right in front of me! No wonder they stay blushed. Oh. That’s just me, standing up and not recognizing myself. Now was that the phone I heard ring. Too bad, I don’t know where she’s at or how those lights just turned on themselves. Someone loves me some eggs and spam!
No, i don't intentionally sound like a miserable old woman reading to myself. just comes across that way. Surely my joy is abundantly shown over the length of this silly note. Would I rather read an article of newsprint, an article of clothing, or a note? How about an overpriced tweet?

reading some of the posts here and seeking encouragement.
Just thinking about getting back into a serious job hunt has me rattled.
The competition out there is cruel I remember from past experiences.
Seems like I have to sell myself short just to score a position that takes more out of me than I can afford.
Transportation to and from with a +170k mile vehicle, public transportation that would add 4 unpaid hours easily to a workday, the know it all associates, the need to know it all associates, the happy front needed to maintain working relationships, and the uniforms or dress code are things i do not look forward to.
then of course my PDA would become an issue, warning me not to be preoccupied on the clock.
Seems like I'm just stuck with the mindset of a retiree who doesn't want to go job hunting or deal with middle management interviews for a minimum wage position.
I'm satisfied.
Despite the difficulty admitting this, I haven't the motivation to be rejected, therefore choose not to pursue a job search at this time. this doesn't sit well with me.
Any advice on getting myself out of this rut without lying to myself and further upsetting my household that's lost the ability to renew faith in attempts to map a career path?
I'm an able bodied, intelligent homeowner yet cant see past the driveway. (don’t consider this your invitation either, tea drinker, aka well to do info hog aka nothing better to do than take this information, add me to some mailing list for bullshit work at your leisure data dump communication) Fed up with pretending that I’m not smart enough to make decisions for myself. Fed up that this has become all about an individual rather than what I want to share. These people and their dogs again…I’m over it.
go note don't worry its not reel
