This is part of a writing challenge at {W}rite-Of-Passage, a community of bloggers who are looking to get back to the writing part of blogging and brainchild of my friend, Mrs. Flinger. Today’s challenge was to write about resolutions. Do you believe in them? Have you ever done them? Beliefs? Success? Goals?
——————————————————————-
Yes, I've made resolutions and, seeing as I'm old (okay, older than most mom-type bloggers, I know, DAMMIT!) there are quite a few that I have made/failed to achieve, consistently, like:
- 1. Lose weight – #fail
- B. Get out of debt – #fail(ed)
- 3. Get organized – #epicfail
You see where I'm going with this, right?
[bows head in shame]
So, in lieu of a new bill, banning ALL resolution-making in the future (seriously, it could happen) I've come up with a theme song, inspired by Frank Sinatra, instead:
I Blogged It My Way
And now, it's a brand new year
And so I face, another 12 months of perpetual pms and a really bad complexion
[takes deep breath]
My friends, I'll say it clear
Being a mom-type blogger sucks, of this I'm certain
Laundry baskets are full, the dishwasher is STILL broken
And yes, I've blogged it ALL
I blogged it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, I probably blogged that, too
You're welcome
What, so would you, when raising 4 exemptions
Stuff just doesn't happen, it hits the fan, watch where you step
This IS my mantra
And more, much more than this
I blogged it my way
[clears throat]
Yes, there were times
I'm sure you knew
When I blogged more than I could chew
(???)
But through it all, when there was doubt
I sucked it up and blogged it out
I Facebooked it all and STILL stood tall AND blogged it my way
[sound of crickets chirping]
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
Twittered it too, no matter how confusing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I made this, too
And may I say, not in a shy way
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I'm still a dork, aaaaanyway"
[last verse, you're welcome!]
For what is a mom, what has she got?
If not for my blog, I'd lose my train of thought
To say the things I truly feel, keyword Gods be #damn(ed)
The record shows, even though my traffic numbers blow
I blogged it my way!
[instrumental]
Yes, maybe we should ALL just blog it….aaaaanyway!
