day 12 of 30

day 12- how you found out about blogger and why you have one

i have NO idea how i originally found out about blogger.
i guess i just started hearing about friends who had blogs
and i would bookmark them so i could keep up with them.
plus i just love looking at pictures!

why i have one...well i started our blog when it was just
steven and myself. it gave me a place to rant and rave
and to have a place where family could keep up with what we are doing.
there wasnt much on the blog until little miss evelynn came around!
now its just me being a mommy talking about my baby and life in general.
it gives me a little bit of "me time".

day 9, 10, & 11 of 30 [3 for 1 day!]

ok, so i'm tardy. [sounds do elementary school!] anyway, i started back at work full time this week. which means evelynn goes to a sitter all day. so when i get home i don't want to do anything but hang out with her. so i've been waiting to blog after she goes to bed. but then i just want to hang out with steven. so...all this to same, I'M LATE! oh well...

here is back to the 30 days of me...

day 9- something you're proud of in the past few days

one thing i am proud of is a close friend who wants to get closer to Jesus and see what life can be like when she lets Him into her heart. i'm so happy for her and can't wait to see what's in store for her and her family. i'm proud because she is making this decision for her and her family, despite what other family members may think. yay Jesus!

day 10- songs you listen to when you are happy, sad, bored, hyped, mad

there is no way i can narrow this down by specific songs. i think a majority of the time, no matter what kind of mood i'm in, i'll listen to worship songs. be it happy, sad, mad, whatever, i love listening to hillsong united. they definitely make me smile and love Jesus even more.

and sleepy time music is a whole other story! i love me some sigur ros and godspeed, you black emperor!

day 11- another picture of you and your friends
not this one again! :] i'll keep it short! Here is my original post of friends...

[me. sister. brother. warped tour 06 in salt lake city!]

[jenny b and i. we made a yummy dinner and then took it to church! i miss you jenny b.]

[michelle and i. aka: barbie & dora. halloween '08]

there you have it. three days for the price of one! enjoy sunday, cause tomorrow is a new week!

day 8 of 30

day 8- short term goals for this month and why

well august is almost over. so i will make my short term goals to be through september...setting goals makes me nervous. i just think about the looming failure if i dont accomplish them. and goals dont seem to be like the alarm clock where i can keep pushing snooze and it be ok. i can put off goals if i set them...so lets see here.

one. begin couponing --> which leads to saving money
two. get back on the wii fit bandwagon
three. start doing my art journal again
four. drink lots more water
five. lose five pounds [honestly, this one scares me to actually write down]
six. really get a grasp on my organization

im sure there are so many more, but we'll stop!
im going to set an alarm on my phone and write an update on my goal progress.
what are some of your short term goals?

day 7 of 30

day 7 - a picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you

in thinking about who or what has the biggest impact on me i think first of Jesus and the Bible. cliche as it may sound, it's the truth (in more ways than one). i was going to try and think of something else that has an impact on my life, but i'm going go stop there. sure there are people and things that impact my day to day life, but Jesus is by far the most important. my relationship with Him is what gives me the strength to get through this crazy life and what puts happiness in my heart when things are quite right (according to worldly standards). so this is where my impact starts and ends.

day 6 of 30 [a day late]

ok...so i'm not slacking,i promise! i was typing this blog out yesterday afternoon when all of a sudden all the electrical appliances in our house clicked off and the monitor went black...just as my picture was uploading. so yes, i am a day late, but with a good REASON not excuse!

without further ado...

day 6- favorite super hero and why

my favorite superhero(es) would have to be the incredibles. they're a family unit that sticks together. they're there for each other when they need it the most. and most of all...the mom is awesome! she is the super mom! i wish i could stretch like her sometimes. either that or having a 3rd and 4th retractable arm!
