Yes, I am still here. I have made a mistake. I know that you cannot believe it either. I do this EVERY summer! Over scheduling myself and now I have subjected David to the madness. Work, photography, scrapbooking, dinner, family, pool, daytrips, shopping cleaning, weeding, church activities, friends... and all the crazyness that goes with this season!
David and I are working on what we want for ourselves and our family, though it may be small now. We need more of a plan. Living, breathing and bills is NOT a plan for us and it shouldn't be for you. David and I are going to work on a budget and I am going to be more accountable with the spending that I do. If we could save half of what I spend we would be set. Sad I know. We are going to make more of an effort to keep the house clean all, okay most, of the time. We are also going to get a plan for my business. The big one we are going sit down and make an exit plan out of Olathe. It may not this year or next b/c we know that we are going to make my photogragphy and creative process first. Who knows.
Another thing that David and I are going to do is work on being more in tune with the Spirit. For me I want to be calmer, more even tempered and more understanding of others' points of view. We need to pray more as a family and be reading our scriptures and talking more about our blessings.
I have so many blessings that I forget about daily. I am blessed to have my family that I love and loves David and me with all of their hearts, a cute little pup, a job I enjoy, hobbies that are full filling and make my heart sing. I am blessed with an abundance of talents and more good friends than I think most people are lucky enough to have. I really have it all and I don't let myself know it.
I need to be centered in my love of the Lord and family and not the things of the world. This is my goal. Now, I have to get to work.
