Work Smart, Not Hard...

When I worked at Wal-Mart, my favorite co-worker and friend (60+ years old) gave me the best advice I could have ever obtained from another human being outside of my family!
She noticed my grunts of frustration as I struggled with the task at hand. She stopped me by touching my arm and gently stating "Work smart, not hard." She smiled and simply moved the object I struggled with.
Since that moment, I tried practicing that very statement. Sometimes I'd get lost and stray from that mindset, but instilling it into my life, over time, it really started to sink in. That little sweetheart was so right!
Could I ever "Work smart, not hard"? Is that a possibility?!
With hard work, can you just ease into working smart? Maybe!
I'm not where I want to be in life, but I am living the life I agreed to. My inner self has so many problems, I always get knocked off any horse I find. Taking chances is something I'm kind of bad at, I mean, I don't take chances! I usually only run on LAST MINUTE mindset, thats how I get things done...Last stinkin' minute!!  When I fail (often) I beat myself up for so long, all that time wasted on pity parties when I could've been learning from my mistakes and stopped making stupid excuses for my actions (or lack there of).

I'm trying really hard to be what everyone needs, right now. Including myself! I need me to get my thumb out of my ass and do what needs to be done. The immature brat in me is actually cowering at the fact that I now have TONS of responsibilities out of no where...again. But, this time is different, I know what to do. Work. Like, real work. But, work smart...not hard! That means, no over thinking, just doing without over exertion! The applications are sent, now I wait impatiently :)

BTW, I've been taking a lot more chances since the house burned down...scary!

Another Week and I'm Frazzled

It's the beginning of a new week, we have quite a few ideas about HOW this week should go.

Foiled plans:

  1. UPublic never accepted my rsvp (sad)
  2. Early workout (it's 10:30...hasn't happened yet) 
  3. Clean house (I still have time, right?!) 
  4. Planned on being rich by now (just kidding, still broke lol)
  5. I told myself to limit the coffee intake (already shaking like a leaf)
Upublic is a local broadcasting station that offers classes, hookups, equipment and props. I rsvp'ed over meetup because the free classes are today, but no one ever replied so we can't go.
Me and the G-man wanted to start working out again, we were very lazy over the holidays, but it's always a pain. When one of us feels like working out, the other doesn't!
I need to clean this house, its technically my job! I just never wanna.
For a few years, I expected that I'd be rich by now, I think we all have those fantasies, lol. 
I said to myself "If you know what's good for you, you'll only have one cup of coffee today!" Well, I grabbed the biggest cup I own and filled it to the brim!  

As you can see, we are off to a funky start! Never fear, we have a TON of video material lined up and we really want to post more than once a week! 


Side story:
This really adorable woman I'm subscribed to on youtube doesn't have many subscribers...because she only posts once a month. But, I can tell she puts a lot of heart and soul into her videos, oh, and time! Why only once a month? She never talks about it. 


We hit 119 subscribers on my channel, YAY!! I messaged a few of the newcomers, I'm kinda worried that they'll be like "Oh, she's weird, unsubscribed!" HAHA my anxiety is so ridiculous!

I love you guys and gals, I hope to see and hear more from you <3

My Youtube Channel (It's Disturbing)

My boyfriend and I have started a new thing on my youtube channel…

We have WTF Fridays, this week we are talking about ARMPIT DYING!!


Being an alternative individual myself, I thought this would make a perfect first topic, LOL!!

If YOU lovely followers like it enough, The G-Man will let me dye his armpits. I want to leave it up to the viewers as to which color(s) they'll be!

Then, I would love to vlog a little bit. The biggest issue we have with making videos is my grandma. If you follow me, you know that she suffers from Alzheimer's and it's SOO difficult to make videos when she's having an episode of sorts. I guess the thing I'm getting at is, will you guys want more and how patient can we be with MAW MAW? 

Let us know what you think, because I would really love to make more videos and create a community with you. No matter how big or how small, I need my group of peeps to help keep me sane!

I love you so much and I hope everyone had a great New Year!!
