I'd like to start this post with a Weekly Challenge! This week do something for someone, even a complete stranger because we all need help. We ALL need help. Help someone because you may be the answer to that persons prayers. Love those who despise you. Love those who persecute you. There's too much hate in this world so lets LOVE each other. Let love fill up your life and let go of all that hate and I promise your life will be BETTER. I promise you will be HAPPIER. I promise better things will come your way. And you will be a better person because of it. Now watch this awesome music video by OK GO... LET IT GO On to today's project...  I have been trying to think of ways to make my life a little easier and less hectic. I really like to cook and usually make dinner almost every night, but sometimes I'm just too tired. I remembered seeing a blog where this woman would spend a few hours ever couple of weeks making ALL the meals at once and freezing them so she

Wow 2 posts in one day! I actually forgot to mention that I have accepted a 30 day challenge my friend posted on her blog. It's a challenge to do (or do not) do something for 30 days.

You can choose to not do something for 21 days, for example... "I will not smoke for 21 days". Now THAT is a great goal! Smoking is terrible for you. If you can stop smoking for 21 days, why not go 30 days? Why not push yourself a little further? Can you see how BIG of an accomplishment that would be? That is something to really be proud of, and one nasty habit that would do you good to kick to the "nasty h

   Today has been quite the lazy day. My back is giving me grief so i am taking it easy. However, relaxing isn't an easy thing for me personally. I can't watch tv for long periods of time because i start looking around the room thinking of things i should be doing instead of watching tv. Sounds great, yeah? "How productive of her!"  No! I mean it is a great joy of mine to cross things off a to do list. The downside is that I tend to get carried away with organization, cleaning and just getting things done around the house. I will spend an hour organizing papers, or just cleaning one little room in our apartment. I try to accomplish too much and i end up hurting my back yet again. Then i am incapable of doing much the next day.        This is the reason i have done nothing today. So, I am forced to take some time to do the things that keep me sane. I am trying to get back into my art and writing. It has been a huge void in my life that i have ignored for a couple of
