Never be afraid to try, remember Amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic. Author Unknown.....

Today I will not be afraid to try something new. I dont know what it will be yet but it will be something and I will not be afraid. I will set my sight and follow thru. I am so excited that I got up this morning and the number on the scale has decreased by 1 lb 8 oz. Not much but I will take it! Not to bad for not really having the chance to exercise. Today I will try to throw in some exercise. I have a million things to do today...but that is ok...what I dont finish today will still be there for next week. I am looking forward to this weekend. I have a family reunion for the first time ever. I will be seeing cousins that I have not seen in years. It is sad that it took another death in the family for us to do this....but at least we are doing it. I will be thinking about Rhonda a lot tomorrow, this is so something that she would have loved and been right in the middle of. I really wish things had been different between she and I over these last few years. But they weren't. I have to move past this and keep my journey going. I want to make the most of this journey, live each day like it could be my last and have no regrets. If I were to die tomorrow I want people to happily remember me, not hate that they have known me. I think this next week I will start a bucket list. Do I plan on dying anytime soon...absolutely not but we are never promised tomorrow. So I will make the most of today! I will love all that life has to offer me and be thankful that I have been blessed with what truly matters, life, love, family, and friendship! I read yesterday where a lady was living paycheck to paycheck on $174,000 a year. Really....we live paycheck to paycheck on A LOT LESS than that....maybe an 8th of that....really...Selfish much. We are always scraping to make ends meet. But we make the best of what we have and for that I am very thankful.... This blog has been kind of all over the place....but that is ok...its mine... :) and I am kinda all over the place!! ;) I am learning to truly love me for me. and I am ok with that! I know that must sound corny but it is true....I hope you all have a wonderful day...and the thought you should be thinking today I have adopted from Brooke Noel is that :Something great is going to happen to me today and I cant wait to see what it is.: I am super excited to find happiness in the little things in life...like finishing a photo session, booking another photo session... my big puppy curling up and laying her head on my feet, the unconditional love of family, the amazingness of friendship...true friendship....the absolute thrill of learning something new in photography. But you know what makes my day...is my husband sneaking up behind me and wrapping his arms around me and snuggling in close and kissing my neck and him telling me that he loves me and he is so glad he is here with me....the little things are all that matters..... Its the little things in life that bring me the most happiness!!! Hopefully I will be back later today to tell you what was new that I tried today.....
