I'm moving

I think I've had a hard time blogging here because this blog doesn't represent who I am. So I'm on a journey and hope my new blog will be me...

Love Day

I have no strong feelings towards this day either way. I think its more important to love eachother every day. The commercialization of it all is amusing to me. The stores full of mean trying to make up for a whole year of neglicence. So they spent tons of $$$ on useless chocolate and overpriced flowers.
We decided that we would make today all about our little family. Our family date will consist of chili cheese dogs, fries, veggies and a special ice cream cake Jason is picking up for us! Cohen is excited to finally be allowed to be apart of a "date."
Today is so beautiful here! I took the boys on a walk and for the first time Pax didn't scream the whole time! On our way home Cohen said he would like to go out for lunch. So we walked to our favourite soup/sandwich place and had a mother/sons date:) (I took a picture but I can't figure out how to get it off my phone!)
Make sure you take the time to appreciate the ones you love today whether you can be with them or not.

Birthday Goals 2012

Today is my 25th birthday. I'm not afraid of getting older but I'm afraid of being old. Does that make sense? One of my life goals is to make sure I use my life wisely. To make sure I am always on track I give myself daily, weekly, yearly goals. Not on paper necessarily but in my mind. Here's the list of things I would like have accomplished before I turn 26.
1. Read 2-3 books a month
2. Finish the boys baby books
3. Set up my etsy/online shop.
4. Get another 2 personal training clients.
5. Receive my Nutrition and Wellness Certification.
6. Aim to Eat clean and balanced.
7. Go on an awesome 6th anniversary trip.
8. Sew pillows for our bedroom.
9. Learn to quilt and make a quilt for Cohen's big boy bed.
10. Run at least one 10k race perhaps even a half marathon!

I'll start with 10 goals and I'll go from there.
I'll get back to my coffee and kitkat cheesecake now:)

writing the truth (a ramble)

At night, I sit in my bed, pen in hand. My hand trembles with the words it wants to write. The blank page screaming at me. What's so scary about writing something on paper? Terror grips me. I want to write. I want to    document my feelings..my thoughts. The truth is raging beneath my skin. I don't think I'm hiding anything big. Sometimes its just frightening to believe that am.
There's the issue of heart, and who has it. Contentment. Perfection. Responsibility. These are things that everyone thinks about.
I'm given one life. Just one. Then I will be judged according to what I did with that life. What if I'm not doing everything I can?
Seeing the words on the screen or on paper..that's forever. What if other people think the way I'm thinking? I hope..I'm not the only one.
