Nah...it's not a dissertation on how to get your whites the whitest...although I do wonder how it is I can come to a laundry day and find many more articles of clothing than I own...
( ** The Laundry Gremlin** - a topic for yet some other post/blog)
*sigh*
I had wanted to write something yesterday, but it all came out like some complaint or gripe and I was so desperately trying to avoid that...LOL
I had gotten some sort of killer stomach flu/virus/bug and made me embarrassingly sick at work in front of my co-workers...so I'm still recovering...and still feeling puny.
That's why the title - I feel as if I've been put through the spin/rinse - rather beaten up at this point...LOL (and I thought I was more of a Dry Clean Only material - who knew!)
*** Tools for Today ***
I'm not certain I'm all that excited about hearing me talk to me - on a tape or otherwise - I've said plenty in the past and not much of it has been pleasant...so I don't know about you - It's going to take me sometime to pay attention to anything my voice would have to say...
Coach said something about people not liking the sound of their own voice - it's probably because the noise in our heads that we hear most often as we talk to others - isn't anything like the REAL noise we put out...
which makes me think - noise? sound? or something of substance...
I read somewhere that a fool empties his head every time he opens his mouth...Ha, and I'm about to go and record all of this...Great!
Don't get me wrong - I'll do it - and yes, there will be a bit of kicking and screaming (okay - not so much screaming - but more of an under the breath grumble or two...) but so far the coach hasn't been wrong...but who would I be if I didn't at least have some skepticisms - well first I wouldn't be me...and I can't say that it would be right to just take things at face value (yes, yes - I told you before I have trust issues)...I'll do it - I promise, but guys (gals) come on...

I'm with you...
I didn't like this task, either. Did it, didn't enjoy it. Haven't listened to myself since. But will today. I need something...
Give it a try. It's interesting, to say the least...
Making Tapes
I didn't think I would like it either but I found that when I got started I didn't mind it at all. I didn't mind listening to myself either which rather surprised me. I was a bit behind on the tape thing as I have had that stomach thing myself. It wasn't fun and I didn't feel like doing a thing. Today I had some time so I finished the first tape and listened to it. It wasn't too bad at all so I jumped right in and the the second one as well. I agree, it's interesting and a new thing for me. But I figured what the heck, there's no one here but me to hear what I am saying (well no one but my dog and he pretty much ignored the whole thing) and no one except the dog to hear the tape when I played it back so why worry about it?
