I'm gonna ramble here

I'm here to ramble. To get how I feel out, so I don't drive people crazy with it later ~ you're more than welcome to stick around and hear me out :)


I think it's kind of been hitting me lately that I'm not pregnant. Especially when I hear about other people expecting. It almost stabs me in the heart a bit, because I SHOULD BE THERE! I should be struggling with morning sickness, getting close to little flutters in my stomach. Dang it! I'm sad.


I feel so torn, because while I'd love to jump right back into the TTC action, I know that there's a couple of things that need to be taken care of first.  

• I need to get my hormones checked.  I really feel like my progesterone issues that I had with the Mirena might have had a little something to do with losing this baby.  SO I have to go in and get my hormones all checked and make sure that I'm okay in that department.

• Next... I REALLY want to lose some weight before getting pregnant again.  I don't want to go into this pregnancy unhealthy, so if I could drop even 20 lbs before getting pregnant I'd be THRILLED.... if I lost a bit more I wouldn't be too sad about that.

• I want to get finished with my Unfinished Business list.

Then I can make a baby ~ when it does happen though I think we'll keep it to ourselves for a while ~ because if we have a repeat I dread telling people.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!  NEXT WEEK IS A THEMED JUST A MOTIVATING MONDAY  

~MARRIAGE~

This week I read in my motivating book I'm currently reading called The Power of Focus that we should make a list of our unfinished business. Then next to each item write how it will better our lives if we complete that item.


I decided to immediately write that list. I wrote things I've been procrastinating on, big things, little things, anything that's been on my mind. So I have this list, and I have just dove into tackling it. I started with something small like cleaning off the top of the fridge, mailed off some much overdue items that needed to be mailed off. Today I tackled a couple of larger items, and I FEEL AMAZING AWESOME!


I'm challenging you this week to do this. Just make your list and put next to each item how it will positively effect your life if you complete this item.... and hang that list up where you can constantly see it. You want those items smack dab in YOUR FACE!  Then start small, and work yourself up to the big items.... get your brain feeling clear of having that nagging to do in your head.  Let's get our unfinished business out of our life!

It's really unfortunate that our world is filled with so much unhappiness. I'm going to be simple and to the point this week.


Happiness is a choice.  I'm a STRONG believer that  we create the things in our lives all by ourselves.  If you're unhappy it's more than likely because you are choosing unhappiness.  Heck, if you are constantly focusing on the negative things in your life, the people around you's life, you can bet your butt you're gonna be completely, miserably unhappy.


Focus on what you have, focus on the happy moments that happen in your life.  If you focus on those things, guess what.... it's the most amazing thing EVER.... you'll have more of them.

“Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.” —Oprah Winfrey

I look at that quote by Oprah and think that this most definitely has a lot to do with happiness.  Not just things.  Happiness is something you either have, or don't have.    


Focus on happiness.  


Choose Happiness.


I hope this little snippet on happiness will inspire you from here on out, not only for this week but for the rest of your life to choose happiness.  We are too blessed to be depressed!

A Year of Personal Growth

This is my year to.........................................




2010 ~ I'm not big on resolutions. I've tried them, I forget about them, and my life continues on without them. So I've dedicated this year to personal growth.  Personal growth to me, most importantly happens not only in one's self but also within their family.  I want to map out a little bit and sortof get a blue print going for how I will be going about my personal growth.


SELF:  


~ Read at least 10 pages of motivational reading EVERY DAY
~ Plan out my days.... do not wing it!
~ Spend 20 minutes every day silencing my mind
~ Scripture reading every day
~ Avoid any and all negativity!  Gossip, downers, complainers... you get the point.


FAMILY:


~ Ensure that my family goes to church EVERY SUNDAY
~ Preplan and have Family Home Evening EVERY MONDAY
~ Make sure that I set time aside that is ONLY for the kids
~ Make sure that I set time aside that is ONLY for my husband
~ Make sure that I set time aside that is ONLY for us as a family




The above is simple, little things that will help with my Personal Growth.  There's a reason for each item I listed.  They're not resolutions... they're a blueprint for me to reflect throughout the year how I can continue on my personal growth.  


I can't even begin to describe how excited I am also about a workshop that I am going to be participating in that starts on Tuesday, January 5, 2010.  This workshop is HUGE!  This is a workshop that every person that is breathing should be taking advantage of.  I don't know if you know who Darren Hardy is, but he interviews the most successful people in the world and is the publisher of Success magazine.  His workshops that cover the stuff he will be going over in this one costs people roughly $1,500.00.  PEOPLE, IT'S FOR FREE!!!!!  If you aren't heading over {HERE} to his blog and checking this out you are INSANE!!!!

This year coming up I'm kicking resolutions out the door. I'm not about to spend another year making a list of things that I ended up forgetting about 27 days into the new year. Nope... this year I have found something that is DEFINITELY going to work for me!


Personal Growth is HUGE for me right now. I have spent tons and tons and tons of time talking and talking and talking about it on my blog. It's so important for us to grow in our lives, and there's no better way to jump on board with personal growth then what I'm going to share with you.

Your Dreams


Do you dream big? So many people in this world are stuck in what I call a big, fat rut! I'm so like this myself at times, but sometimes we get to a point where we are comfortable and used to the same thing every day. What growth are we getting from this? I'm getting to this point. Everyday I wake up to the same thing.... there's no challenge, there's nothing big that I'm working towards and that will keep me in this rut.


So I'm changing this. I'm sitting down and mapping out my dreams... it doesn't matter how big your dreams are, what matters is that you have dreams. If you don't have a dream of what to work towards how in the world do you expect to ever progress in life. You can easily get lost in the every day life if there isn't something motivating you to be big.


Why are you doing what it is that you do every day of your life? Are you at a point in your life that you expected yourself to be at? If not... why? Do you have your goals and dreams in a place where you can see them every, single day? The only way that we can grow and achieve things that we want is if they are in front of us... every, single day.  Make a dream board, make a dream journal... just make sure you are seeing your dreams every day and are doing what you can to achieve them.

Day 2 of Productiveness

New Years Day I woke up MOTIVATED!!!!! I've done so many projects around the house and it feels SO GOOD! Here's a list of what I've done:

I've done MANY MANY MANY loads of laundry.... and I'm going to keep doing this throughout tomorrow until it's ALL DONE!

I've cleaned out my linen closet and organized it to where it's a beautiful sight when opened

I cleaned out the coat closet and donated 5 coats

I went through my closet and Gino went through his and we donated everything we haven't touched in the last 3 months... unless, of course it was special

I've tackled the dreaded junk corner of my room

I'm making schedules for what I'd like my days to be like in 2009

I cleaned the inside and outside of my car plus got Gino's car & my car's oil changed and tires rotated

And I got rid of my housekeeper. I don't see the point in paying someone to do something that I think I can do better.... so, Flylady on Monday I'm a new faithful follower.... I even have my control journal out and ready to start flying!

My main focus right now is decluttering. I don't want the crap I hold on to anymore. I'm taking tomorrow to finish up the inside of the house (Garage is Monday's project) and I'm determined to start work on Monday with a newly organized and smooth running system. This month is going to be extremely busy, because I have so much on my to do list concerning work that all has to be done by January 31st.

I hope I motivated some of my readers, because just reading this is getting me motivated all over again.

Tomorrow's main goals....

Finish all laundry
Finish all filing
Organize Jayden's room
Go through boxes in Jayden's closet
Clean all bathroom & kitchen floors

I hope I'm as motivated tomorrow as I've been these past couple of days.

Welcoming in 2009

As 2008 comes to a close and we are yet approaching another year, I get excited inside. It's a fresh new start and I think tomorrow I can wake up and everything that I did wrong in 2008 doesn't matter.... or what I didn't do. It's a fresh new start to start over.

I'm happy with myself. I don't have a resolution to lose weight, but I would like to start working out on the Wii more - for health reasons, and dropping a few pounds wouldn't be too bad LOL.

I want to do more homemade gifts for people for their birthdays. And learn more about sewing and expand in my photography. I'd even like to pick up a couple of classes/seminars on these.

I want to read more to Jayden. I'd like to get through the whole series of Magic Tree House books this year. We read the first book today and he loved it! And I really enjoyed reading it. I think they're great books that he can learn a lot from. I also would like to see Jayden reading more books himself. So.... reading a BIG thing for 2009 for us.

I suck at scripture study, and usually opt out and end up reading the Ensign instead, but I want to be more deligent in this area this year. I would like to have my Book of Mormon blog updated daily. Even if I'm just reading 1 chapter a day out of the Book of Mormon I'd be happy.

I want to pay more attention to my husband, and not let the little things in life distract me.

I want the kids to watch less TV this year, and not use it as much for a babysitter. Being a Work at home mom, this can be hard, but I need to be more creative in my efforts.

I want to be on top of things with my work. I want to have a set working schedule and to make sure that I get so many hours in a week so things don't build up on me.

My biggest goal of 2009 is ORGANIZATION!!!! I want to do the Flylady and stick with it. Even use her tactics with my work. I need order and a smooth running home/office in order for me to keep my head on and strong!!!

I hope everyone reading my blog has a Very Happy & Safe New Year ~ we'll just be hanging at home tonight watching movies and being with our babies, because there's no other way we'd rather bring in this New Year. If you're drinking this year, please don't drive. You could take away someone's life... including your own, and that's no way to start out a New Year.

Day 3 of a sick Jayden

Today is Day 3 of having Jayden home. Today's the last day of school before his big 2 week Christmas vacation. He still has a fever, and I just feel so bad for my little guy.

Ella's saying cool now. I guess she's been saying it for a while, but it sounds so much like cold that I thought she was saying cold when she was saying cool. She still says cold, but about 5 minutes ago I put on Barbie Mariposa and when the menu came up she sat up and looked at me and said, "Cool!" *sigh* where did my baby go?

I'm doing the 15 minute house cleaning tip from Flylady today. I'm going to spend 15 mintues in the kitchen, then 15 minutes in the living room, then I'll take a 15 minute break and probably head over to Etsy and dream about the day I'll be able to make stuff like the girls over there. Then I'll continue on w/the bathroom for 15 minutes then folding clothes for 15 minutes. When I'm done with that...

I'm sewing. And that's how I'll be spending my Friday.... sewing.

I've been MIA from my blog for a good reason!

I haven't been blogging lately, and there's a reason! I've actually been productive. I'm on this kick to be organized all throughout the year of 2009. In order to achieve this new goal I have to start a little early. My office stuff is almost completely 100%, perfectly ORGANIZED! Huge accomplishment! This next week I'm going to be focusing on my closet and the kids' toys.

I should've taken a before picture of my office area, but I will post an after. I'll do a before & after post of everything else I accomplish ~ the big thing is going to be the garage.... it's scary.

My mom is on her way up right now and should be in here in about a half an hour. I'm excited to be able to spend time with her. It's so weird how I went from seeing her at least once a week to only seeing her a couple times a year. Jayden is REALLY excited to see his favorite Grandma. I actually asked him who his favorite Grandma was (I know, I'm terrible) and he told me my mom was. Then I asked who his favorite Grandpa was and he told me that his dad's dad was his favorite Grandpa.

Friday I'm hitting up the Black Friday sales. I'm going to try to do it small this Christmas, which is going to be SO hard for me. Christmas is a really big thing for us, and I am going to try to bring back more of the spirit. If anybody has any ideas on some Christmas spirit things we can do please, please share with me!! I'm tired of buying a ton of stupid toys that Jayden doesn't even pay attention to just so he can have lots of presents to open. I want whatever it is that we buy them for them to appreciate it, and I don't want them to be overwhelmed with so many presents that half of it goes unnoticed. So... this year, simple for us.

Tomorrow's Thanksgiving ~ I'll try to come on and give a nice Thanksgiving post about the things I'm thankful for and how our day went. In the meantime I hope that everyone has a safe & Happy Thanksgiving.

Gloomy, Beautiful Saturday!

It's Saturday today, and strangely it actually FEELS like a Saturday. We woke up early (thanks to Ella) and I've been doing laundry ever since my feet hit the floor. I'm sure the flylady would love that.

The weather outside is gloomy. Not raining, just a little overcast and peaceful. I love that. It makes me feel like I can have an inside, accomplishing day and not feel guilty about it.

We're all feeling better and the house has been sanitized, so hopefully this icky bug is out of our lives for good!

Our Halloween was awesome. I'll be uploading pics & video a little later today. If I start working on pictures it'll take over my day. I have goals for today and so far I think I'm going to accomplish them.

1) Filing - I want it ALL DONE TODAY!!! I'm doing quite well on this goal.

2) Laundry - This I also want all done today, but let's get real here ~ probably not going to happen. However, I've already done 4 loads and am not planning on stopping until tonight. My laundry is out of control, and that in turn makes my life out of control. So, if I don't accomplish it all, then at least I can make a nice dent!

and those are my goals for this gloomy, wonderful Saturday! I think it's so wonderful because it's the first day in a really long time (besides our sick days) that I don't HAVE to leave the house. Jayden's done with soccer (pictures and video to come on this as well) and Gino works, so it's kinda like a my day in a weird way.

Also ~ it's Digital Scrapbooking Day so, if you're in to Digital Scrapbooking I'd be high tailing it over to Ikea Godess (CLICK HERE), because there's a TON of freebies going on. That'll be my fun evening downloading as much as I can.

Week's Goals

Well, the Flylady is in the Master Bedroom this week. Thinking I might need to jump on in and get to working on my Master Bedroom/Office.

I have goals for this week! Here they are:

1) Do a total of 10 loads of laundry (I let it get a little out of control ~ surprise surprise)

2) Get tenant files moved into the new plastic tote filing thingys I bought ~ this way Ella can't get them.

3) Financial reports done by Friday - I HAVE TO DO THIS!

4) I'm trying to work on my evening routine. It's important for me to have my living room picked up and my kitchen clean for me to wake up to. My goal for this week is practice doing this EVERY SINGLE NIGHT! I have a much better morning when I do this.

Goals for Jayden:

1) Make sure he practices EVERY SINGLE NIGHT this week on his piano
2) Get his karate notebook put together and work with him on his code of ethics
3) Practice Reading every night

No goals for Ella

Goals for Marriage:

1) Stay positive and don't nag

and that's it on Goals for Marriage :) that's a REALLY hard goal!

Okay ~ so these are the things I'm working on this week - I'll regroup on Friday and see how I did.

Today my friend Jenise is up from Sacramento visiting. We're going to the pumpkin patch today and **whispers** we might have some video of it to upload if I get my Flip video camera like I wanted YAY!!!!

Some more goals...

I'm getting extra doses of my husband this week. He's had Sunday, Monday & Tuesday off. Then he also has Saturday, Sunday, Monday & Tuesday off. That's a lot of time together. It's been nice though. I'm getting work done, and he's hanging out with Ella. If he knew I was really up here writing on my blog I don't think he'd be too thrilled :)

I accomplished the majority of all of my goals last week. I did my 2 loads/day, my work items were done, the only thing I really messed up on was a home cooked meal every night.

Here are my goals for this week - now until Friday....

1) 2 loads/day

2) Read scriptures EVERY MORNING & NIGHT (I started my day out w/reading w/Gino and I feel great!)

3) 15 minutes of filing/day

4) Do as the flylady tells me.... I seriously need to get back on track with that!

They're all leaving....

Remember when we moved to Oregon and it was just us. There was no stresses, we were just peaceful and happy. Well, we're moving in that direction once again. Mitch is moving out tomorrow. He found a room to rent!!!!! Very happy about this. My Grandma is leaving today, and I'm hoping that after the winter she moves back here so we can set up the office at her house. Norm should be leaving w/in the next couple of weeks.

I AM GOING TO BE FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's only Tuesday, and I wanted to voice a couple of my goals for the week.

2 Loads of laundry/day - includes folding & putting away
A/P filed in my new cute hot pink & blue filing totes (I have a sick obsession w/office supplies)
Norm's bills paid
All deposits in the mail
Brochure completed
Home cooked meal EVERY SINGLE NIGHT!

Those are very easy goals for me for the week.

We're Back!!

The trip to Reno was AWESOME! Not so much being in Reno, but driving to Reno and home. We listened to Twilight on CD and Gino was finally brutally forced to understand what I've been talking about all this time. He likes it too. We're only half way through the book, so I anticipate either him reading the rest (don't see that happening) or us listening to the CD's in the house.

The seminar was actually a lot of fun. I learned a lot and my tenants are going to hate me, because by law there are certain things that have to be in the rental agreements that aren't. So, they'll all be having to resign rental agreements when they just did that 2 months ago. Sorry tenants

Gino and the kids just hung out in the room while I was in my seminar and watched movies. After I got out we went swimming in their gorgeous swimming pool. Then we ate a yummy buffet and went to see Ksee and the kids.

It was such a quick trip, but it was such a nice break to get out of here.

Today is going to be spent doing all the things I don't want to do.... I'm going to do laundry, organize the office so it's ready for some major work accomplishing on Monday, avoid the Harvest Festival going on outside (I know, terrible, terrible mom - but come on!), get grocery shopping done.

I finally opened it

August 2nd I was at the store buying the much anticipated Breaking Dawn. Then I got scared. I had flashbacks of the first 3 books completely overtaking my life. I couldn't put them down. I fell in love with another man (Edward Cullen in the book). Then I got scared about it ending. I'm scared to finish this book and not have another one (Until Midnight Sun comes out) to read. Tonight I sucked it all up and opened up the book.

I read the first 2 chapters and actually was able to put it down. Not because it's not good, but because I'm so exhausted from this day that I really need to go to bed.

I bought my Wii Fit tonight. I didn't try it out, but Gino did and it seems REALLY cool! It's definitely going to be fun to do.

Notice none of my goals from today are checked off? Yeah, I went to go and lay down w/Ella to get her to sleep and ended up falling asleep with her. There went my afternoon. Better luck tomorrow.

Not a Sac Girl Anymore

I know, there's still no pictures. It's not as easy with this new camera, because I have to resize them for the web.... I promise it will be soon.

I however needed to come on and elaborate on a few things going through my mind. First of all, I really think I don't like Sacramento at all. I promise it has gotten so much more ghetto than it was before. I couldn't stand looking at all the ghetto. Besides the fact that I have a very dysfunctional father that lives here, I'm really happy we made the decision to move here. I will never live back in Sacramento if I can help it. I will always be a Cali girl at heart, but it's so not the place to raise your children.

I believe my brother just might have a job. Done in 1 day and w/out the help of any of my family here. I'm sad, because he really did want to have the plumbing experience from my dad, but the job I believe he got (they already drug tested him and he passed it!) is a great one. They'll even give him a bus pass, which means I DON'T HAVE TO TAKE HIM TO AND FROM WORK! Very pleased with this one.... please cross your fingers and pray with me that he indeed got the job.

Here's my goals of the day: If I come back and cross them off that means I accomplished them ~ I wouldn't expect too many cross offs, but you never know!!!

1. Print Checks and mail off for work
2. Prepare deposits and mail off for work
3. Statements sent out
   
4. 3 loads of laundry folded & put away
5. The toilet fixed ~ maybe I'll just pour Draino down the drain and leave it up to Gino
6. Room cleaned up ~ it's a mess since coming back from this trip.
   

Okay I'm off to go and try to get the work side of things and 1 load of laundry started.

One more thing!!!! Today is day 5 with no coffee. I am passed the migraine part (YAY!) and my anxiety is better and I'm replacing coffee with breakfast and vitamins. Huge accomplishment for me. I wasn't just making my coffee at home, either ~ I was spending $5.00/day having it made for me. So, with the amount of money I'm going to save this month I'm buying myself Wii Fit.

Freak out panic - goals will help!

Sometimes life just seems to fly by so fast and I feel like it's slipping through my fingers. I've finally been given the perfect opportunity to be able to work at home and raise my kids and I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am to be in a position like that. Yet, I still feel like the world is moving so fast.

Ella will be 1, Jayden will 7, I'm turning 26 and my husband just turned 27. Wow. I remember my mom being 26. Sadly, it seems like it was just yesterday and that scares the crap out of me. There's so many things that I need to do and want to do and instead right now I'd like to put my face in a pillow and scream.

I was on a great track, with a great schedule. Things were getting done and all was happy!!! I feel a little unbalanced right now, and I need to get myself and my children back on a healthy schedule. I need to have a home cooked meal on my table for my family at least 5 days/week. I need Ella to be on a set napping/eating schedule and I need to have a set working schedule. It's hard with Ella, but there's no reason that anything should feel out of control ~ and honestly it really isn't.

Lately Ella hasn't wanted me to do anything but sit on the floor and stare at her. She's a total Leo! She wants all the attention and the world needs to be centered on her ~ sometimes it's hard. However, now I finally get to see what my mom got to deal with. Yes, I too am a Leo.

I've taken time to get organized, and I'm not 110% there yet, but I will be. I think that once things are perfectly filed and organized & my spreadsheets are updated and accounts reconciled things will be okay with me. My job honestly does not take up that much time, but it does if things aren't organized the way they're supposed to be.

I'm giving myself 2 weeks to be caught up on everything in my life. I need my schedules back, I need my family to feel like a family again and I need to have SET working hours.

I think I need to start off by setting myself some daily goals. Things I MUST accomplish in my home, my family, my work & myself. Sadly, sometimes there's not enough hours in the day, but I need to start allocating my time better. I owe it to my family & myself. Tomorrow is a new day..... Here are tomorrows goals:

Work:
1) Spend 30 minutes on filing (this will probably accomplish it all)
2) Send off deposits
3) Pay all bills

In regards to my work - there's a lot to do right now, and there's a lot of ideas that I'm working on to make the business better. I'm going to work on a master list and I think this is going to help out so much!

Household:

1) Do 3 loads of laundry - 1 of which is bedding
2) Babyproof my room/office
3) Clean kitchen (since I'm too tired to do it tonight)

With Jayden:

1) In the morning work on reading workbook & 1 math sheet
2) Play board game w/him during the evening

I feel better. Getting things out in a list always makes me feel better. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day!

I actually tackled some things this week!

I'm a little late here ~ had a busy day, but wanted to chime in on Tackle It Tuesday

I didn't take a picture of my new office, but I mentioned a couple of weeks ago how my kitchen table was overtaken by my office. I had papers and files and it was a little chaotic. Thanks to Brittney, my sister I'm just getting to know, my office area is now in my room and it ROCKS!!! It's such a cute little area and I will get a picture of it up soon ~ maybe tomorrow. Things are filed, organized and I'm feeling on top of the world in that department.

I've also organized my spice/medicine cupboard. It was a little out of control, and I threw away old medicines that weren't needed anymore and empty spices. Feels good!!!!

CABINET BEFORE

CABINET AFTER

Some goals that I'm going to work on tackling for next Tackle It Tuesday is:

1. Get laundry caught up
2. Picture frames that are lying around w/out pictures up on the wall

Simple little goals, but must be done ;)

To see what other's have tackled you could always go over to 5minutesformom.com and get some great ideas on what you should be tackling.

What I did and what I need to do!

In my last post I talked about how it just dawned on me that it's Tuesday. Not good. So, I'm a little late here, but it's Tackle It Tuesday.

1. My main tackle of the week was keeping up with my laundry that I finally accomplished.

2. I went through all of Ella's clothes and bagged up anything that didn't fit her anymore and took it to my cousin for her to use on her baby.

It was such a busy week that's the only major accomplishments I did.

I'm going to write out some goals that I hope to have done for next week:

1. Organize spice/medicine cupboard

2. File away all of my work that has consumed my kitchen table

3. Go through my closet and bag up clothes to take to goodwill

Those are simple and very easily be accomplished. I will have before and after pictures next Tuesday :) ~ In the meantime have a very happy week!!
