2014 Plans

2014 Plans

Many people start out a new year deciding on resolutions, big purchases or declarations.  When it comes to planned purchases for a year typically one plans for something big, like say a house, new car, computer, maybe even a boat. 

Me, I am going for more simpler things this year.   

This year I vow to purchase MORE BLANKETS!!!!!

I'm talking good old cotton blankets and throws. 

Comfortable and convenient.  

Sounds simple and small, but I declare: 

it's a desire and a must!!!!!!

Come on 2014 - Show Me What You Got

★ Me Time ★ Vitamins ★ Freedom Tattoo ★ Stretching ★ 

★ Veggies ★ Hydration ★ Meditation ★ Art ★ Laughter ★ More Jazz ★

My dreams for 2014.

Sharing My World With My Girl


My daughter has decided she wants to start a blog, so to give her an understanding of the variety of what a blog can be about I decided to share mine with her.   We read through all my posts over the past 5 years.  Whew, a lot happened!  The good, the sad, the silly!  We laughed, we cried (I cried a lot)!

 I love sharing moments like this with her.  Maybe her inspiration will drive me to write on here more.  Maybe not. No matter what, this was a beautiful moment shared with my little love!

Birthday Bliss

Some wish for expensive bobbles. 
Some wish for parties surrounded by many. 
Some wish for travels galore.

I wish for serenity, peace and love.
I wish for sun, warmth and comfort.
I wish for gratitude and acceptance of my life both past and present.

As I sit here today, I know my wishes have come true.
Happy Birthday to me. 

Dreams coming true.

Want vs Need

There is a difference between want and need. It is okay to want.

Right now, in this moment, I want:

• Indian Food 
• A Cannon EOS 60 
• To watch basketball with my daddy 
• To learn to make Vietnamese Soups 
• More Coffee 
• Dinner date with good friends 
• To be warm 
• More beads to do projects with 
• Not to work 
• To walk on the beach 
• To talk to a friend that has gone too soon 
• My own home to do with what I want 
• A new bed 
• A new Beetle 
• Printer ink for projects 
• Parmesan encrusted artichoke hearts 
• To laugh 
• To be skinny and tan 
• A bathroom decorated in Eastern Indian colors 
• More free time 
• A hug from my grandmother 
• A new tattoo

It’s okay that I want these things. Not many I need to survive.

- Well, I NEED more coffee.

Gratitude

I am so grateful that gratitude is a vital part of my life.
