Well...last week was busy, although I can't remember why-haha! This week marks the end of our 2008-2009 school year, and I couldn't be more ready!! Tomorrow I get to be a chaperon for the middle school kids at LAGOON!! I love Lagoon and I am very excited to go and not be here for the craziness of the last day of school. Then on Thursday I will still have to be at the school, but there will be no little tyrants running around-whew!! I am really glad to be doing summer school-it will be a great prep to ease me into next year and my new position in the elementary school. Oddly enough, you would think being done with school would bring about more time, but thus far that is a no cigar!! I am hoping to start packing next week and get my house in order for the new Hobby Swap Night my friends Shanoa and I are starting. I will be hosting this first one, and I am hoping for a really great turnout!! It will be a potluck and I will be doing a demonstration on felt flowers and how to turn them into a headband, bow, or scrapbooking/card embellishment. To add to that and the swap I started with my friends and family from back home, I entered into an on-line swap that is due August first, so June will for sure be a busy month!!! Eric and I have vacations planned for the first 2 weeks in July, and then I am hoping to come home and start on the fish paintings I will be doing for Eric. Sneak peeks of all my swap stuff will be posted soon!!!
Anyways, This week I will continue to:
*Do something active for 5 out of 7 days
*Make healthy food choices and be aware of what is going in my mouth
*Read my scriptures and a church article for 5 days
*Play with PSE...fix photos Amber's photo's
*Finish up my handmade gifts
*Pack 2 tupperwares
*Make a couple layouts using my swap stuff
*Do something nice for Eric and one other person each day
*Organize scrap room....especially with all my new goodies!!!!
*Finish my swap stuff for the online swap, and for the summer swap with my ladies!!

Change Will Not Come If I Wait For Some Other Person Or Some Other Time. I Am The One I've Been Waiting For, I am The Change That I Seek. The Journey Of A Thousand Miles Begins With A Single Step, My Step; Thus, Let My Journey Begin.
Because I have waited to long to be the person I want to be-I will start becoming me, today. This Is My Journey of Self-Discovery and Improvement: Mind, Body, and Soul.
Starting With Me
Change Will Not Come If I Wait For Some Other Person Or Some Other Time. I Am The One I've Been Waiting For, I am The Change That I Seek. The Journey Of A Thousand Miles Begins With A Single Step, My Step; Thus, Let My Journey Begin.
What It's All About
I know...A 3rd blog...what am I thinking? I wanted somewhere to write down the things that I am working on. I needed somewhere that I could challenge myself, somewhere I could remain accountable for true change. Most of all I needed somewhere that I could remind myself that I can change, even if it is one small thing at a time! Each week I will be giving myself new goals, in various area's of my life that I feel need improvement. I will also give progress on how I am doing with each goal, and post things that I am doing to stay creative. I truly believe that by starting with myself, maybe someday I can help to make some global changes-and if not, at least I will have become the person I want to be. If any of you would like to join me, please do so, and let me know where your journey is leads you.
Harriet Tubman:
Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.
Henri Bergson:
To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.
Leo Tolstoy:
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
Mairead Maguire:
We frail humans are at one time capable of the greatest good and, at the same time, capable of the greatest evil. Change will only come about when each of us takes up the daily struggle ourselves to be more forgiving, compassionate, loving, and above all joyful in the knowledge that, by some miracle of grace, we can change as those around us can change too.
Pablo Picasso:
I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
W.E.B. Du Bois:
The most important thing to remember is this: To be ready at any moment to give up what you are for what you might become.
Mary Englebreit:
The best changes often start as a single, simple thought. Think big, and discover the ways to make your dreams real.
Unkown:
If you don't like something, change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.
