2 Things That Will Motivate You To Get Stuff Done This Weekend

I don't know about you but I have a hard time getting motivated. If I'm going to get anything done I have to first hurdle over Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime to get there and let's face it--that is not easy task. But if you start slow you do eventually get somewhere.

1. A Podcast: Podcasts are great because they entertain your mind while you get on with other things, and once you're addicted to a podcast you find you don't want to just sit there and listen so you end up doing other stuff (like dishes and laundry). It's a nice boost if you're trying to get some things done because you're not stuck to watching something so you're free wander around and do what you need to do.

If you like the supernatural and history I recommend Lore. I just finished all the available episodes and started over. It's amazing. There's also a show on Amazon Prime that's was renewed for a season two so look out for that too but that will suck you into Couchland so watch it as a reward lol.

2: A Book: Audio books work about the same as the podcasts do, but traditional books are good for me because I always reach a point where I have feelings about what is happening and have to stop and talk about it (I talk to myself, my cat, and dog mostly but hey), but while I'm sussing out my brain I have a lot of nervous energy and will start cleaning or doing something productive until I have calmed down enough to go back and start reading again. Plus reading is always good for you anyway.

I just finished The Broken Girls by Simone St. James. It's a murder mystery with an added supernatural element. I'm glad I read it though I have feelings so stay tuned.


These obviously aren't the only two things--these are just the things that I find the most enjoyable.

What things do you do or listen to get you motivated? Share and comment below.

Remember to be kind and drink water.

Sincerely,

How to Declutter in 3-ish Easy Steps!

Do you have more crap than any human person should be able to accumulate in one lifetime? I do! And if you're anything like me you constantly look at all this crap and wish it would all just go away--but when you actually go to get rid of it you suddenly have a deep emotional attachment to everything and you leave the endeavor disappointed to say the least. So after my closet declutter I have some tips and advice for all the budding hoarders out there to help us all avoid the embarrassing but seemingly inevitable moment where authorities have to bulldoze their way into our homes and physically remove us. Tip #1: Clear. Remove everything from the space. Everything. Even the stuff you know is going back. Get it out. This will help clear your mind and start deciding what you want and need for that space. Tip #2: Clean. This gives you more time to decide what you want but also helps to reset the space in your mind. This really makes me view it like I'm moving in again and star...

Why You Need to Watch "Timeless" Sundays on NBC 10/9c

Ok, so I have feelings about this and all the #Clockblockers who campaigned for it's renewal in 2017 will know the struggle is real. They'll remember the disappointment when we heard it had been cancelled, and how elated we were when we heard that we changed NBC's mind. So I'm going to tell you why you should jump on the Lifeboat with us, because I promise you it's worth it. It's honest about history : Not only does Timeless maintain as much historical accuracy as humanly possible when it comes to events, but it is real about the times. Any of my fellow Whovians will remember Martha (incredible, GOOD, Martha), and the Shakespeare episode. She's black and asks the Doctor if she'll be ok--to which he responds yeah and tells her to just walk around like she owns the place because that always works for him--a white guy. While I don't condemn them for sidestepping an issue people are afraid to talk about, it does encourage the glossing over of histo...

The Four Things to Keep in Mind While Raising a Puppy

Raising a puppy is lot of work--and I mean--A LOT OF WORK. They're cute and all but no one ever tells you that they're basically the unholy union of an infant and a toddler (until now so you're welcome). They wake up early with more energy than should be legal, they confuse the carpet for grass and they teethe, leaving you looking as if you've gotten into a street fight with a badger. Yeah, that's right, a badger. It's a lot, but I can also tell you it's wonderful, rewarding and incredibly fun so I thought I would share my wisdom. I got my dog Jasper in May of 2017. He was 8 weeks old and I fell in love. He's almost a year old now, and I can happily say he's a happy, well-behaved pupper. ***DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A CERTIFIED DOG TRAINER. THESE ARE MY EXPERIENCES SPECIFIC TO MY DOG. YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL*** These are the four main things I've learned to keep in mind while living with, and raising Jasper in order to harnes...
