This past weekend I was at a little kid’s birthday party and I saw a lady there that I remembered talking with briefly the year before. As we were all singing and laughing while the kids were hitting the Piñata the lady asked me if we had any kids yet and I said no not yet. She gave me such a… Continue reading Marriage, Life, Babies, Happiness
Happy Valentines Day! If there is one thing I have learned over the years about this holiday it’s that its best not to put pressure on yourself or someone else and just enjoy that its another special day that you get to express love. Whether you’re in a relationship or not just enjoy knowing that… Continue reading Love, Every Day
Sometimes what you believe you want most in life is not always what you need. Today I received an acceptance letter from CSU-Fullerton for Fall 2011. I remember how happy I was when I received that same letter last year for Fall 2010 and how surreal it felt to me that I’d finally be attending… Continue reading Things Happen For A Reason
Sometimes I think I’m going to be one of the few women that ages naturally, well somewhat naturally (more on that later). My friend surprised me with a free subscription to Self magazine and I got my first one a few weeks ago. There were some really interesting articles in there that I enjoyed and then there was… Continue reading Whatever happened to aging naturally?
I have a lot of favorite words but the ones I’ve been thinking most about this week are “aware” and “responsibility”. I think we could all benefit from being more aware of things and taking responsibility.

These little Dove chocolates come with a “promises message” inside the wrapper and today’s was: Spending time is a greater gift than spending money This made me think of my husband… Continue reading A Chocolate Message
This one is going to be brief. Its been a great day today. I was able to workout in the morning and then my husband made me a yummy breakfast to eat en route to school. Speaking of school, I’m happy to report that this week there were no headaches. I’m a little tired right… Continue reading Bedtime is near…
I’m having one of those frustrating hormone triggered almost-everything-seems-to-annoy-me kind of days. I don’t get these kind of days often but when I do it’s like the very last drop of my patience and tolerance is tested. A part of me wishes I could find a scapegoat to lash out at and the other very rational side of… Continue reading A moment to vent, and then let it go
This bit of wisdom is from a few days ago but it’s never too late to share. I get these “day to day dogmas” every morning and it’s one of my favorite ways to start the day. This one made me think of Biggie. If there is one thing I’ve learned about Biggie is that he is not… Continue reading Some More Doggie Wisdom
Our Super Bowl “party” consists of my husband, our bulldog, and me watching the game. Actually I’m sitting here getting ready to read a chapter for my International Social Problems class while my husband is trying to fight taking a nap and channel flipping between the game and other semi interesting channels. Biggie is sunbathing… Continue reading Where’s the chips & guacamole?
