Settling in to 35

Today I'm grateful for.....

Finally feeling like I'm finding the real me. Feeling true, honest and just being me.

Getting a better grip on my own questions about struggling with how I was raised to behave and live, and what I believe in and how I want to live now. Starting to take action on living the life I want to live. ...I feel like I'm sort of in the middle right now, this idea started shortly after Michael passed away and has slowly been evolving and progressing from my head to actual physicality and I'm finally starting to follow through with some of my wants in the way of living. (greener living, being healthy, experiencing new things, continuing education,etc.)

Being stiff and sore from golfing, ...it's good for me, good for my body, good for my soul. (golfing, not being stiff and sore :)

Getting it just like I like it,...life that is.

Christopher McCandless, aka...Alexander Supertramp.

An interview on Monday for a part time job doing something that I consider fun. Rebecca has been after me to work for her for about three years now and I finally said yes :) ooh and looking forward to creating new relationships with the strong confident women I'll meet at work.

The opportunity to earn extra money to help pay for my massage therapy schooling that starts this fall.

Spicy Basil noodles, I'm so in love with Thai food and I treat myself about once every couple of months.

One of the new magazines that Josh gave me has directions and plans on how to build a rain collector. Josh and I are going to build a collection tank to put under one of the down spouts to collect the rain water and use it to water my plants this summer.

Conversations with Josh about building a compost bin, woo hoo!

My tiller attachment works, which is going to make it easier to bring the lavender fields of Washington to my back yard :)

Continuing to try new things and create memories and fantastic experiences in my life. Knowing that at 20 years old I never would have imagined my life would turn out the way it has. At 35, I am grateful for every experience I've ever had, good and bad, for they are what make me who I am. I'm excited about what is still to come in my life, all the adventures I have left to enjoy and am thrilled to have a life partner, someone I love who wants to share those adventures with me.

I am enough, I am beyond good enough, I am a powerful woman who dreams and makes things happen, and I have always had everything I'll ever need.

I am forever grateful for the two amazing young ladies who happen to be my daughters and the opportunity to be a strong influence on Calli.

Teaching myself how to run again. I'm sooooo out of shape, but putting one foot in front of the other and gaining momentum.

Settling in to 35 and being happier than I've ever been in my life.

Good things are happening for the people I love.

You my little noodle you.
