Random Thoughts

Today I feel like life is rushing past me. Not in a Debbie Downer sort of way. Just a fact. But I want to do something about. So I am going to put down all the thoughts of things I want to do and somehow I will make them happen. Not just the BIG dreams. But the little ridiculous things I have always wanted to do. Also, all the things I recently keep telling myself to do but just don't think I have the time. And what better way to make myself accountable then to write them publicly? Awesome.

1. Go to England.
Status: Savings account opened and money slowly adding up.
Plan: Keep saving. Keep dreaming and planning.
2. Triathlon.
Status: Training schedule made and in use. Confidence growing in the swimming area...
Plan: Stick to schedule.
3. Make a necklace out of sea shells.
Status: Sea shells sitting in bucket.
Plan: Just do it!
4. Own or make room dividers.
Status: Looked online.
Plan: Do more research. Look at actual stores.
5. Stick to my exercise/diet.
Status: Been good for 3 weeks.
Plan: Stay positive. Think about the goal.
6. Do something exciting each week.
Status: After the awesome vacation it's been sort of blah.
Plan: Look for the exciting things. Make the exciting things happen. Be creative!
7. Finish my scripture study journal.
Status: It's a work in progress.
Plan: Remember to actually study...
8. Organize my space.
Status: Sort of getting there...
Plan: Just do it! And keep it that way. :)
9. Try something I have never done.
Status: I have some fun things in the works. Hopefully they will work out.
Plan: Nail down plans. And do it!
10. Keep educating myself.
Status: Books and articles piled up...
Plan: Actually read them in my spare time. Pick things I am interested in.

Looking at this list it seems like a lot of things. But it's not like I have a time frame I have to finish all these things... Most are things I need to always be working on anyways. Plus, I feel better when I have a plan and am doing things.

On a total different note: I would just like to say that I really have the best profession in the world. My jobs are so rewarding and I absolutely love them! I work with some of the most amazing people. They brighten my day every single day. Seriously. Some times it can be hard and challenging but without fail one of my clients will do something to totally change my day around. They have the purest and sweetest spirits around. I'm so grateful for them and the opportunities I have to work with them.

Family Vacation 2011

Dolphins, Harry Potter, Rollercoasters, Magicians, Food, Beach, Lighthouse



Awesome vacation to say the least. I didn't want it to end. But atlas it did. We had such a great time though.


Things you need to know:

Metling Pot- though expensive, totally delicious and fun meal

Discovery Cove- awesome. If you ever get a chance go. If you ever get a chance to swim with dolphins just do it.

Wizarding World- AMAZING. Most magical place in the world, simply put. Go. And I will go with you.

Sea World- Has this really crazy ride. You sit on the ride then it tilts you so you are on your stomach. And the ride is like that the whole way. Weird feeling, but closest thing I have ever felt to flying.


So many firsts were crossed off my list on this vacation. And I loved it. Man, I have such an awesome family.
