Happy Monday everyone! Last week, I took a break of sorts from blogging. Mainly because I was feeling very overwhelmed by life and more specifically by my job. Now that I've taken the time to review some things, plus had the weekend off away from work drama, things have become better. I'm working really hard to improve myself right now and so my weekly wishes today and in the future will probably reflect these things. Do you take the time to work on yourself? It just seems natural to me to do so. I always want to be my best self. So let's talk about what happened the last time I made some wishes.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Last Weeks Wishes



* Write - I did get some writing done! I wrote the 2nd part to the short story I'm working on. I haven't written anymore since then though. Maybe later this week, I'll be in the mood to get back at it and continue on with the 3rd installment.


* Finish a Crochet Project - I didn't complete anything yet, but I have gotten a lot of work done! I hadn't been to my crochet group in almost a year now, so I figured it was time to visit and get some advice on my projects. I swear I made at least 3 booties while there and had to frog two of them. They are coming along nicely now though, so Yay!


 * Blog Prepping - I definitely got this one done. Now I need to work on it again, until I can find a good rhythm that works for me.

* Set up Tours - I'm officially in the process of trying to change careers and I've decided to go back to school. This means that I need to start setting up tours with colleges and gathering questions that I'll need to ask. Any suggestions on questions I should be asking like: What is the success rate of graduates finding a job after graduating? Important stuff like that.


* Meditate - I know it's been on the list before, but I have fallen off the wagon! It would be great if there was another 21 day meditation challenge from Deepak & Oprah, but I will survive.



* Continue Reading Eat Q - I talked about reading Eat Q, a long while back here, here, & here. I put it down to read The Body Book and now it's time to get back into it. I really do want to live a healthier lifestyle and this is just a part of the journey to get there. Plus reading information about my goals helps me to stay focused.



This is where I conclude for today friends. Hope you will achieve all of your goals for this week or month. :)

Ciao!

Weekend Rambles...

Greetings!

I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend! So far, we've done some shopping downtown, tried some new restaurants (new to me anyway), and now it's time to get some housework and writing done. In the meantime I'll also be catching up on some movies that I have on my DVR. Yay! Speaking of which, we just watched 'Just Enough'. I knew I would like it, and it was funnier than I expected! Have you seen it too?

* I'm proud to say that I have finally chosen a college that will work for what I want to major in. Going back to school is way intimidating to me. Just thinking about having to take all the general classes again.. Blech! The only one I really fear is math. Lemme tell you something.. I am where math goes to die!!! The numbers race at me full speed ahead just to bounce off my head and fall dead to the ground. Lol. You think I'm kidding, but I'm not. Unless the teacher is really good and patient, then it's going to be a very long semester. People always tell me that math isn't hard because the rules never change, but I think that's what makes it hard for me. The rules can't bend and change like they can when you're interrupting a story or book so I feel constricted.

* Do you have a hobby? I always seem to have something that I'm into, but I never consider them hobbies. Take crochet for instance.. I don't consider that a hobby, but other people do. Sometimes, people are even shocked when I say I have a business selling crochet items. I try to figure out if they think it's weird that I have a business or that selling crochet stuff is business at all. Either way, it seems that I should be mildly offended. Ha ha. :)

* Have you seen those women that wear heels all the time? I've had some friends say that their heels are more comfortable than tennis shoes. I don't find this to be true. Let's think about this for a min shall we? Any shoe that forces your foot to be positioned in such a way as to where you have to walk on the balls of your feet all day cannot be comfortable. Don't get me wrong, I love heels. My feet just don't. :op

Okay, that's it for today kiddies. Share your thoughts with me.

Ciao!

Happy Monday you guys! The past week and a half went by in a flurry! Now that my birthday as past, I’m finally getting back into the swing of things. I didn’t get the opportunity to write a lot last week, but I’ll be making up for it this week. Lots of writing and crochet will be done in the following days, so let’s hope I can stay organized. Do you ever feel like you’re about to start a ‘New Season’ in your life? Something like be changes are about to happen for you? That’s how I feel and my wishes this week will reflect that. I know I missed a post for last week, so let’s talk about what happened the last time I made some wishes. :)

Last Weeks Wishes 

* Meditate Daily – This was a bit of a struggle for me surprisingly. It was almost as if I just couldn’t fit the time in to do this one. I will continue to work on this though, because I feel like it’s important. Plus, it will help build up my discipline.  

* Yoga - Oddly enough I did more yoga than I did meditating! It seemed like whenever I had a free moment I was striking a pose. Having the Daily Yoga app on my phone really made a difference. I just discovered that you can follow a few 10 day programs on there, so I just started one yesterday. I'm pretty geeked about it. Before long I'm going to build muscle and become quite flexible!  

* Finish The Body Book - I did it! Now it's in the hands of my mother so that the knowledge will continue to spread. Now it's time to put all of that know-how to good use.

* Research Colleges - I've been talking about making a career change and I've finally decided to do coding, as in build websites. Yay! I already have a degree in art and now this will give me the technical side of things. The best things about this choice is that the IT field is booming right now and is projected to keep on growing, I can still work at my same job, but possibly switch positions, and I can work freelance... Cha-Ching! So it's time to see what school is going to work best for me. I'm hoping that I won't have to be in school forrrrevvvverrrr to reach my goal, but I'm prepared to do what it takes to get to where I want to be. 

* Food Prep - I'd really like to start preparing my lunches the night before as well as chop up anything that I may need the for dinners I'll make the day before. That way I'll have more time to devote to the things I love to do. Plus, it's just good to be organized. I feel so much better when I am. 

* Send Packages - I was really supposed to go to the post office over the weekend and just didn't! I just gotta pick a day and do it. Yuck... 

Okay peeps, tell me what's going on in your world. What are you trying to accomplish this week or even this month? Let me know! 

Ciao!
