Less Complicated

I'm on my way to having a simpler lifestyle. And, hopefully, that will simplify my life. I don't like having to deal with malfunctioning cars or packing tons of stuff or not fitting into clothes.

Today, I filled another box with stuff to go to Goodwill. I also tossed a bunch of random papery things I had been saving to someday to a collage. Really? A collage of magazine cutouts? Yes, that'd be great if I were an active collager, but I've NEVER been that. I've never been the scrap-booking type either. Perhaps I'm not very sentimental. But it was hard putting a couple of my stuffed animals in the Goodwill box.

Tomorrow, I will get a new title for my car and call the guy that showed interest in looking at it--and hopefully buying the thing.

What I have yet to do is faithfully exercise. As I write this, I'm dressed for going on a run. I meant to get to they gym (yes, I'm paying monthly for a gym membership) today and go to a pilates class and then a yoga class, but that just didn't happen. Now it's "late," so I wonder if I should just jog around my neighborhood. I procrastinated very well--part of the reason I got so much done today (I also did laundry) was because I was not wanting to exercise. Yet just today I went shopping with a friend (I bought a pair of shoelaces. I know, big splurge. They were a dollar. And, yes, I have a pair of shoes that need new laces) and tried on a lot of clothes and my main complaint was that they didn't fit or were unflattering 'cause of my current fitness level.

If my car sells, I'll probably get more in shape. I'll have to bike to work.
