Dreaming of gardens and trouble proof computers

Inspired by spring, the question for I Want...Wednesday #75 is "What do you want to grow?"

I would love to have a beautiful flower garden and a productive vegetable garden.  I am not a gardener, but I am a gardener wanna be - very much so.  You would never know it if you were to visit my yard.  Most of my gardening takes place in my  head.  I would love to have a flower garden that bloomed with color in every season and a vegetable garden that provided us with our favorite fresh vegetables in the fall.  Problem is I have a very, very small yard and I very, very "ungreen" thumb.  I keep saying that some day I'm going to fulfill my dream, and maybe I will if there is gardening in heaven.  :)

They also asked "What else do you want this week?"

Well, after the day I had today I want a trouble proof computer, one that would never, ever gave me any trouble.  I was thrilled last year when my mom and sister surprised me with a laptop, but it has caused me much grief in the little over a year that I have owned it.  For some reason I have to totally reformat it every month or so.  I am no computer expert so I have no idea what causes it to do what it does but at least I have discovered how to reformat and it clears up all my problems, at least for a while.  This is fresh on my mind because I had to reformat again today.

I want to have more time in a day

I can't seem to find enough time in the day to do all that I need/want to do.  Mind you, if I were perfectly truthful, I'd have to admit that I waste a lot of my time and if I actually stuck to doing what I should be doing I'd have no trouble fitting it all in.  Sooooo, while I think I would like to have more time in a day I'd probably just end up wasting it away again.  Truth is I really need to prioritize and not get side tracked.  With that thought in mine I'll answer this week's question for the "I Want Wednesday meme".


"What do you want to change about yourself?"

I want to get my priorities straight.  I want to stop getting sidetracked and stick to the really important things.  I want to get back on track in my sleeping/waking schedule.  I have been totally messed up in that regard for quite a while and it's wearing me out.  I want to feel energetic and revived again.  I want to get back on track with exercising again.  I know that will help with the energy and probably even the sleeping.  I want to change.  Now, how do I make that happen?
