Who is Simple?


I've decided to try to get back on track of my day to day life on this blog. I always seem to stray and lose track. T says I have too much going on in my life and its time to simplify. I don't know simple. Don't believe I have ever met that person. Can someone please introduce me to this Simple?



First off T says, " to simplify means to let go of things". Starting with the things that drain me of energy so that I have enough stamina to deal with the things I must. I've started this process by letting go of material things first. Cleaning out closets, e baying things to get rid of them. Its a small step in getting to know Mr. Simple but it is, after all a step.


The next step will have to be the people in my life who are unhealthy for me and drain me of my energy. Its a toss up between my daughter and boyfriend. They both drain the hell out of me. I know the daughter must stay so does that mean the boyfriend must go so I have enough energy left to deal with the daughter. Really one does not have anything to do with the other. Daughter is very demanding of my attention. She has a very low self esteem and needs constant re-assurance from me. If I don't tell her where I am its like she's the mother. She calls all over town looking for me. Its like she has a fear that I will abandon her. The boyfriend on the other hand is a whole different story. I will hit more on him tomorrow as that will be time consuming.


To wrap up, I plan to spend a lot of time trying to get to know this Mr. Simple. But I really don't think he and I have much in common. It may be a short lived relationship.
