Changes

I, like Madonna, believe that the unexamined life is not worth living. I am always striving to be a better person. I know I have flaws. I am trying to fix them. Well, I know I can't fix everything but maybe make my flaws less than they are now. I guess there isn't much more to say than here is my list of

3 Flaws I'd Like To Fix

1) Impatient- I am not a good wait-er. I just hate sitting or standing around with nothing to do. I am also impatient in general with people. I thought becoming a mom would have given me more patience but it just didn't. At least not as much as I think I need. Every day I try to be a bit more of a patient parent than I was the day before. I am lucky that I have a kid who doesn't regularly test me.

2) Complainer- I like to complain. As an adult, I realized that I get this from my mother who also likes to complain. I will complain about anything really. I hear myself sometimes and think, "you're doing it again, just shut up" but its so ingrained in my behavior that it isn't that simple.

3) Procrastinate- yes, I too note the irony of this combined with flaw #1. I put off many things in my life that I just don't want to deal with. It always comes back to bite me in the ass later. Currently, it is my weight. I am now seeing the effects of being overweight for a while on my health. At least I know when the procrastinating has gone on too long.
