Maybe I think too much?

So do you ever wonder, if for example, if the green of a leaf looks different to you than to another person? Yes, I know there is the color blindness thing...but without looking it up on the internet, I like to imagine that when someone sees a green leaf that to me that I see it totally different than you...maybe as boring as that we see different shades of green for that leaf. Like to you a certain green is always a lime green but to me it is kelly green. Like even as drastic as me seeing pink and you seeing blue or something like that. Hehe. Just my wacky thought process.

Okay so it's snowing today! Erk! Not sticking on the roads, but hello! Ah well. Better than the strong wind yesterday and the dirt that just hung in the air all evening.

Anyway, happy last day of March! Remember to say "rabbit, rabbit" tomorrow morning...first thing.

Reaching Up

Once in a while I love to stretch my arms and hands above my head. It feels soooo good. Go ahead, you know you want to do it! Anyway, it does feel good.

I had a good afternoon yesterday. Went to the track- that felt great! Went over to my mom's and had a good evening hanging out with my mom and niece and nephew and sis in law. It was just a relaxed evening. I loved it. Two more days till the kids get baptized! Very exciting.

Happy Tuesday and happy stretching!

(P.S. I really don't have dark eyebrows...in fact you can hardly see them...but I made them dark in the drawing.)

It's Monday and I got in some extra sleep hours. Yay!

Happy Monday! A good weekend. Something every day this last weekend but great milestones in our family and in a couple of friend families. Happy Monday! I hope to accomplish a ton o' things this week.

Happy Sunday to all!

Just a good day. Off to a missionary farewell today. Spending time with family and friends again. Love that. Just grateful.

A side note...I keep feeling that I need to be accomplishing more in my life. That I have been given talents and blessings and that I am not doing as much as I could be with them. The days go by and I feel that I need to do more...or even something at times. I have to admit that losing my brother this last year was such a huge thing in our family...it threw me off in a lot of ways. His passing has sombered me for sure. But I know he is okay. That he is happy. That he wants me to accomplish what I was born to accomplish.

Hmmm...I really need to ponder on this. Though I have been for the last few years or more. But I really need to start setting goals. Maybe thinking outside the box...though that term gives me a bad taste in my mouth at times because of a misunderstood experience (on my part) about 5 years ago. But it is a good term. I feel that I don't live up to the potential I have inside me. That my heavenly father gave me. Especially lately. Yes, I am accomplishing things..a lot of things---where I have to because of a job and needing to pay my bills (and I am so grateful for a job and that push at work because I know it strengthens me more and more each day and I have learned so much about the industry. I learn more each day.)..but there is so much more, on top of that, I could be doing. So yes, I need to think outside the box when it comes to my goals...my dreams for myself. So here's to doing that. Somehow. One day at a time. That I might break the barriers I have put up for myself. I know that I have been given these talents for a reason. And I guess that is what is frustrating to me. I so easily get stuck and don't try. I take the easy road always it seems. Can you tell I have been thinking about it a lot? I am so proud of my friend Holly. I am amazed by her. I need the security of a fulltime job for sure...but I also know I could be doing more outside of work. So I need to stop dreaming and stop being afraid...and actually do something. I actually have quite a big freelance job to get done in the next while but I also need to get moving and push myself to the potential I know I have in me.

So here is to goals. Goals accomplished by talents that are inborn in each of us. May we work each day to do a little more. In all areas of our lives. Physically, spiritually, and mentally. I can work on all areas for sure! Here's to the rest of 2010. This year is just getting started. Lots of time for lots of potential. Here's to many years of accomplishing many things for all of us. I will do a lot more thinking from now on. And some doing for sure.

Happy Sunday!

A good day

Happy Saturday! A good day. I got to watch my sweet 8 year old niece Jenna get baptized. A good day to be with family and realize the importance of this day.

Happy Friday!

Just a little note to say that I am very thankful for all that I have in my life. I really am grateful.

And here is a non-calorie, non-sugar cupcake... that you can pretend to eat. ; )

Happy Friday.

And just to add...how thankful I am to serve at the temple.

p.s.s. and can I also add...can the weather be more odd today? Seriously, folks. Snow rain mix one minute...then to straight rain...then to blue sky...then about 5 minutes later, snow again. It's been doing this most of the morning. The sun is out at the moment with partly cloudy skies. It is cracking me up.

Ever wondered what germs look like?

So my cute nephew, Marcus, drew the germs he had inside him when he was sick a few days ago. I think this is exactly what germs would look like, don't you agree?

Happy Thursday!

Queen for a Day

Wouldn't you want to be queen for a day? (Besides being a superhero...maybe you could alternate the two positions every other day?) I guess most women who should be called queens really are superheroes with all that they accomplish each day.

Bow to me, my minions! Haha. Kidding. No way do I accomplish much as compared to those women who are mothers...trying to juggle a million things. But I do keep busy for sure!!! I can be queen over my home domain...or at least queen in my mind... ; )

Happy Wednesday!

Ever wanted to be a superhero?

So, I was thinking...have you ever wanted to be a superhero? Able to right the wrongs, the injustices, and maybe a few things you'd like to redo in life that maybe didn't work out the way you thought they would? I think it would be great. Yes, maybe there would be some responsibility issues. Maybe you wouldn't get much downtime...R & R... but think about all the good you could do! Especially with some things happening in our world in the past while, I truly would like to whip out my cape and take to the skies... (also, if only to save on airfare.)

I can't believe it is nearing the end of March. Wow! So much stuff going on this next weekend. Friday, a wedding reception of a friend. Saturday, Jenna, my niece, gets baptized. Sunday, a mission farewell for a good friend. And next week, Jason's kids-Kiley and Kolby- get baptized. I know he will be there. Also, soon comes the year anniversary of Jason's passing. Still so very unreal to us. Just a lot going on.

So get that superhero cape on and make a difference in your life. I know you already are making a difference...just maybe a little incognito.

Happy Monday!

Yes- Monday rears it's ugly head way too often...kidding...sort of...I appreciate Mondays but I appreciate Fridays more...like we all do. Had a hard time sleeping Saturday night. Tossing and turning. My mind was going all directions. I am glad to report that Sunday night was a normal sleeping night for me and I slept well.

Anyway, my thought for today...let someone know that you love them.
