A Rewarding Moment

  I went to the gym tonight and it was just a reminder to how much I love to lift weights, one machine I was up to 50 pounds!

After the gym, I saw a lady walking through the shopping center, holding her son, bundled up as best as she could.  In that instant, I rolled down my window and offered her a ride, she accepted and I found out her name was Marrissa.....:). I enjoyed very much helping out and it reminded me of all the time I spent in Dallas during college taking the bus all the time, just wishing some nice lady would stop and offer me a ride. :)

Proud of me

Can I just tell you that all week I have been getting up & 5:30 am and then exercising! I am outside walking/ running in the dark and I say to myself, "WHO ARE YOU?" This is the girl who has ALWAYS been a night owl and hated mornings, but what can I say, I want to change who I am. I want to be healthier, stronger and taking care of my temple like never before!

I am also having a BLAST selling Avon!!!!  It is SO MUCH FUN to do! It's just a bit frustrationg when certain local friends are not supporting my business as I did theres when they started, sad.

Oh well, it has been a great week & for that I am thankful!

Alive | Pocket Full of Rocks

Alive | Pocket Full of Rocks

I am Quite impressed!

So, you know, I have never been the great chef, that's my sis. But ever since I have been trying to eat better and a wave of Pampered Chef parties went through my friends, I am trying. Tonight I made Stir fry from scratch! I minced fresh garlic AND ginger, which I had never done and it tasted so clean so good with no preservatives in it, I even toasted almonds, okay, Bruce helped a bit. :) I am just so proud of me!

Today I became my own boss!

I was young when I have memories of sitting in the car with my sister watching my mom walk up to the front door of someone's home and deliver their Avon order and she was such a great Avon rep, that she won several awards! Now, I am a stay at home like my mom and I am following in her footsteps. Will I win awards? Only the Lord knows, but I am excited about the journey ahead!http://avon.com/

New to this

        I  heard of this blogging thing and never really thought much of it except caution for the fact that I was typing things out on the internet, but then I learned I could control exactly who saw it and it made me feel better, although I am aware that I am probably not totally secure.


So why have I decided to blog. Because as you know I have been hurt on face book with the lack of response to certain posts. Posts that are journal worthy, but words that would make me feel better if I typed it out. I am being VERY protective of this place and who I let in, because this is to be a safe place for me, one of encouragement from others and when I am done, I will feel better.:) So, if you are reading this now, know that I trust you and I thank you for sharing your time with me.
