Life is lfe, take it as that :)

9:35 am - I am just going to put it out there...I woke up on the wrong side of the bed and I don't want to do anything. I don't want to work, I don't want to walk, I don't wanna do anything but be depressed and contemplate how depressing life is. I hate getting my child off to school on days like this; it is like she senses that I am off and has to push me every which way. THIS IS NOT ME....hopefully a walk will pull me out of this funk!

12:22 - It is a wonderful feeling when you set your mind to something and you achieve it. Today is Day 16 of walking and it has probably been the hardest yet riches day so far. While I woke up a hormonal, emotional mess and things just went downhill from there; I somehow was able to make the CHOICE to change the day. I still do not feel like a big ball of sunshine, but at least I am reacting to the day a lot differently. Life is good, I am just PMSing ;)

This thought came to me while out, when my feet move my brain does too...

"While what happened to you yesterday does not make you who you are today, it just merely changes the way you look at the present. This creates endless opportunities for each new moment, day and for the future. You have the choice on how to react to the present situation. You have the power to recognize current challenge and the courage to push through it."

Every second has gotten better since this thought came to me. Life is life, take it as that. Life's ups and it's downs and the hormones...it all seems much easier to chew knowing that this present moment will pass and that I have opportunities, choices and goodness with each moment that awaits. This is not a new concept to life or to me; I am not sure how I forgot but I did.

Love and light!

I did not take any pictures on the walk today. This picture was taken in my yard last spring. I wanted to share this one with you because...I have seen the light! LOL!

The day is not over until the sun goes down...

6:56 am - I am not going to make it on my walk this morning. There is too much to do still before I get Alyssa up and off to school. Looks like an afternoon walk is in my future!

1:16 pm - Poppy was so mad at me this morning for not taking our walk this morning, to funny! She would not listen to me, let me near her or give me any attention until she knew it was time to go. Never seen such a strong willed dog, or one that has such a spunky personality.

Spent some time in my daughters classroom this morning. It was nice to see that everyone missed each other over Winter break. Those little stinkers, gotta love 'em ~ even the naughty ones ;) Not walking until sunset today. That will be a nice change, hopefully I will get some good pictures to share. It is really cloudy today.

5:02 pm - Just got back from a walk with my daughter, my neighbor and the pup! Sunset is a good time to go. We walked all around the pond and got a quick snapshot of the sunset. Going to go again in the morning...possibly in the afternoon also ;)

Pretty pastels in the sunset tonight, life is good!
