F oFF From Reality…

Posted by christiekennedy on November 9, 2011 in General |

Do you ever find yourself in a mood you struggle to explain?

Every once and awhile I find myself in a bit of a funk. Nothing for any of you to be concerned about, just wanted to share that even me ‘miss positivity’ has down time. I think it is healthy (maybe just a way I personally justify) to be a little higher and a little lower every so often. As long as it is ‘so often’, not regularly or more often. I allow myself a day (or night) here and there to just ‘F off from reality’ (FOFR). To just sit back, chill, feel no guilt for not doing what I ‘should’ be doing. To check out from responding to FB, Text, Twitter, Email, asap. To not be bothered by the
dishes that sit dirty on the counter…to just check out and ignore life per-say. 

I have started to see a pattern that brings me to my ‘F off from reality’ times. If I had to choose one word, OVERWHELMED. I also have figured out how to limit my FOFR times and the two words I would choose would be, TIME MANAGEMENT. I enjoy so many things, I am a professional procrastinater, and a bit anal when it comes to ensuring things are done to my standards. A SCATTERED PERFECTIONIST. I believe I can do it all (and properly ;) , hence the sudden Holy F and I check out. I must say I find great enjoyment in almost everything I do or have access to. I am also aware that sometimes we need to lighten our load and just enjoy the moment.

Because of my realization as to what causes and how to limit my FOFR moments, I want to get my shite together and calendar plan, prioritize and commit. So I am putting this blog out into the universe, knowing I am an accountable person (just tend to be least accountable to myself), I hope this helps me stay committed to first managing my time better and committing to my plan…

So here’s to F’ing off tonight and a fantastically productive start tomorrow with Crazy Christie back in action, implementing better time management, and enjoying the moment! Mwah!

Adious Funk…in awhile crocodile ;)

  • Love this post baby! Thanks for putting this out there.

  • So true! I like your FOFR … I think everyone needs to check out for awhile and put the focus back on what makes you happy – so you can fill back up that energy and positivity tank! I use yoga – my time to get back to me :) Thanks for sharing!

    Feisty!!!!! Feisty Christie – now that has a ring too it. Love the use of the F-Bomb. In these days of political correctness etc, it is refreshing to see you “keeping it real….” and it makes me chuckle too.

    Your blog is Fab. I am always intrigued about the concept of time management. Think of all the ways we refer to time, i.e. Time drags, time stood still, racing against time etc. In fact time moves at the same rate continually. In essence self management is the key. Now I wish I could say that I was Fab at time management, but in actuality, I am F…… crap at it. Alas we are human, and born to f… up! Checking out (resting) for a while is huge in our development – you and Dai (being Gym Bunnies) know the benefit of rest. So chill, recharge the batteries, and henceforce continue to illuminate all those that surround you. :)

    Crap, tried to leave a post and it failed, bugger – here goes again.

    Love your post, especially the “liberal” use of the F/bomb. In these days of PC anxiety, it is very refreshing….and made me chuckle too.

    I am always intrigued by the concept of time management. We use the term time in so many ways….ie, time flies, time drags, time stood still etc. In actuality time moves at the same pace continually, and thus managing time is like trying to hit the hammer with the hammer itself! In essence it is self management – something I am personally F…… crap at. Hence we are human, and in the words of “The Human League” (dating myself here) “born to make mistakes”

    Now, being that you and Dai are both Gym bunnies, you understand the benefits and importance of rest – in fact it is essential to your development. So rest, recharge, and henceforth continue to illuminate all those that surround you! Oh, and pat yourself on the back too :) Mwah!

    Wow, I made a right mess of those didn’t I? Actually, am laughing at myself at present. As you have probably gathered I am also Anonymous! First time on this thingy! LOL

    It’s so funny reading your description of yourself, cause that’s really similar to how I would describe myself were I more eloquent.

    “I enjoy so many things, I am a professional procrastinater, and a bit anal when it comes to ensuring things are done to my standards. A SCATTERED PERFECTIONIST. I believe I can do it all (and properly , hence the sudden Holy F and I check out.”

    Yup. That about sums it up! :) Thank you for sharing. You are an inspiration! Keep it up!
