Too undisciplined to be anything but that &#8211; fat.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I always worked hard. I&#8217;ve always taken initiative at my job, I dedicate myself to the things I love, I would never consider myself lazy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; A bit of a slob, I guess. But, never lazy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Lately, I have fallen into this pattern of&#8230; sloth. I really wanted to use a cute sloth photo on this post, but when I saw the dog in bed (so photogenic!) I went with that instead. Anyway &#8211; off-topic!<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; In recent days, I have noticed that I am just&#8230; lazy. There&#8217;s no other word for it. I have all these grand plans, but I end up spending hours watching Netflix and dreaming. Dreaming, but not doing.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; And life is for the doing.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Is it possible to be utterly happy and yet utterly miserable? Because I am so content with so much in my life &#8211; my wonderful husband, our beautiful puppy, gaming and laughing and just being together&#8230;<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; But I hate how hard it is for me to get motivated. I am not satisfied with many things in our household &#8211; like the way we clutter up the kitchen for days at a time, then have to do huge piles of dishes and stuff all at once. I am not happy with the way we often fail to hang-up our clothes once we wash them. Or how hard it is to get myself out walking daily. How difficult it is to make myself do all the things I dream of doing&#8230;<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Getting healthy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Getting our house in order.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Keeping healthy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Keeping our house in order.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Work, writing, school, excellence.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; We have goals and dreams &#8211; buying a house, publishing our novels, getting another dog, having a baby&#8230;<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; But right now, I&#8217;m finding myself very lazy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Very stagnant, and that&#8217;s no way to be. Its time to pull myself up. Make the changes I want to see in myself and my life.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Make it so, Captain!<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; No more Lazy.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I guess it is time to make a list!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/jeezjosie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/signature.jpg\" alt=\"Signed, Josie\" width=\"92\" height=\"139\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13\" \/><br \/>\n<i>Note: Image is &#8220;relaxing on a lazy afternoon&#8221; by (Silerhawk) from SXC.hu<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I have been a fat chick as long as I can remember. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; And I have always railed against the stereotype that fat people are just lazy slobs.
