“You don’t get to choose how you’re going to die. Or when.
You can only decide how you’re going to live. Now.”
~Joan Baez
I hope you are having a FABULOUS day!!
I have just received an e-mail that summed up my morning!!!
“Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”
~I Corinthians 13:4-5
That just made my day – I have always loved that scripture!!!

Good morning!!
Today is Valentine’s Day!! I have decided that I was going to blog a little differently than usual! I am going to blog on the go for the entire day!!! Stopping in the moment of actually being out living my life, I will share a pic and how it is going at that exact moment – the epitome of online journaling!!
Right now, I am heading to work! Because I have night blindness my sweetie drives me to work – man I just can’t say it enough – I REALLY LOVE THIS MAN!!! π
I am hoping not to have a stressful day at work today, so even though I don’t have control of EVERYTHING I am going to DECIDE to have a good day!! Wish me luck!!!
Until I post again in a few hours…
Have a FABULOUS morning!! π

Good evening!
What I wouldn’t GIVE for 1/8th of my mother’s courage!! In the whole 23 years my mother was around for me, I don’t EVER remember her worrying about what other people thought of her!! She was able to follow her gut, her intuition, and do whatever it was she felt she was put on this earth to do!! As much as I am like her, why couldn’t I have inherited some of that gene from her??? I find that I am constantly worried about what other people think of me, which is probably my GREATEST WEAKNESS!!! This fear keeps me stuck where I am at, and I have decided that
DON’T WANT TO BE STUCK ANY LONGER!!!
So, Life, I am a coming! I am not sure what that exactly means, or how that is going to come to fruition, but Life, you are just TOO short, and I am going to LIVE YOU IN THE EXACT WAY THAT I WANT!!!
Have a FABULOUS evening!! π
Thank God it is Friday evening!! My stress level is so high, that my eye has started to twitch – NEVER A GOOD SIGN!! LOL! My go-live week, at work,Β is technically over, BUT we have sooooo much work to do!!! I am going to have to work a little bit this weekend, but if it gets me even a little bit more caught up – it will be worth it!! I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel – WHOO! HOO!!
On a completely different note a WAAAAY more UPLIFTING NOTE: I have been getting a lot of questions that go something like this, “Ok, I have created my vision board, now what???”
So I thought that I would take a some time to answer this question! Take your vision board, a pad of paper (or journal), a pen (or a bunch of different colored pens), and go find a comfortable place to sit and write. This part may take you a little while, but in my opinion it is one of the most important parts of making your images on your vision board come to fruition. Deciding what DIRECTION you want your life to go!!
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”
“That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat.
“I donβt much care where–” said Alice.
“Then it doesnβt matter which way you go,” said the Cat.
“–so long as I get SOMEWHERE,” Alice added as an explanation.
“Oh, youβre sure to do that,” said the Cat, “if you only walk long enough.”
~Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
I know I have posted this before, but just for a refresher, here is my vision board:
Ok, so make sure you have your vision board out where you will be able to see it! Grab your blank piece of paper and write your name write in the smack dab middle of it!! Don’t write it too small – this is a mental representation of your presence in your own life – so make sure are visible!! π
Next, while looking at your vision board, decide what are the top 5 or 6 things that will get you to the life that your vision board is describing??? Write those things in small descriptive sentences around your name.
Now is the fun part! On the back of this sheet of paper, you need to figure out what steps you would have to do to get each one of these goals. This may seem kind of tricky, but this is how I make this work for me:
Choose your first goal that you have written: I want to be fit, healthy, & vivacious!
Re-write it like this:Β How can I be fit, health, & vivacious?
Then spend the next 10 minutes, 30 minutes, hour, day, week, or however long you want to give yourself just writing down ANYTHING & EVERYTHING that will make this goal a REALITY in your life!
Some of my list items could be:
You get the idea – write IT ALL DOWN!! Not everything has to be realistic/feasible, but that crazy, zany idea might open your mind up to that ONE IDEA that clinches your mode to success!!!
Do this same thing for EACH of the goals that you have chosen!!! This may take you a while, matter-of-fact, I am sure that it will, but you are laying the FOUNDATION FOR YOUR FUTURE!!! So DON’T skimp on this step!!
WITH EVERYTHING IN ME – I KNOW YOU CAN MAKE THIS LIFE HAPPEN FOR YOU!!!
Let me know, in the comment section how this goes for you!! Even from afar, I am cheering you on!!!
Have a FABULOUS evening!
Good morning!!
I am feeling a little like Alice in Wonderland’s White Rabbit this morning!! “I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date!”
I should technically be in the car and on my way in 1 minute, BUT I didn’t want to skip blogging this morning, and I still have a few tasks that HAVE TO GET DONE BEFORE I leave this morning!!!
I slept sooooo well last night after our evening of swimming, I always do!! However, my sweetie is sick with some kind of a head cold, and he did not sleep well!!! POOR BABY!!! π However, it has to be said, it is amazing how a small cold can turn my big, strong, burly man into a giant, man-sized baby! I am sure I am not the only woman with that issue!!! π Anyway, I hope he feels better quickly! π
Tonight Jason is going out with the guys, and I am going to stay home and LIVE IT UP!!! WHOO-HOO!!! I am going to get some things done around the house that I have been wanting to get done for a while, and I will be able to just be a super-anally-organized-neat-freak-WOMAN!!! I will be tackling some of my 90 day goal tasks this evening!! I can’t wait!!!
CLEAN CRAFT TABLE, HERE YOU COME!!!
As I zip out the door to get my booty to work on time!!!
Have a FABULOUS day!! π
