Ready, Set, Jet!

So how do you know Spring has (almost) arrived? I'm hearing new song birds, or else the local birds are learning new tunes and the trees are flowering. I think you can hear the birds in my super short video. Good Afternoon! I’ve been MIA again, but before I give you another lame excuse, know that I was thinking about you dear reader. Because I truly was, I haven't had time to blog, but I was thinking about you. Mostly I've been wondering why you keep coming back? Why you care about my silly little blog and what the HELL I should write about. So after much thinking, and hardly any writing, I think it's time for a Thankfulness Challenge again. You remember, like we did in the good old days? I found a 30 day (Goodness!) Challenge while I was googling *err, I mean Working* today and thought I would give it a try….and because I really am a dedicated hard, working blogger I will even filled in the parts I missed. So are you ready for a thought provoking, funny and hopefully interesting look at gratitude and thankfulness? Lets dive in! Day 1 challenge: List something about you, personally: Hmm, I think the thing I am most grateful for is my ability to learn. I have had so many opportunities and adventures because I was able to learn new skills. I don’t think I am terribly smart, (don't get me wrong, I'm not stupid, even if I can't spell!) But I am able to learn things quickly. This was an asset in every job/career I have pursued and I am grateful for this ability. Day 2: Something about you - physically your grateful for: Hmmm, I’m grateful for my body. I may not look like a swimsuit model, but I love the fact that I healthy. I love my body! It took me years to appreciate it, but now I marvel at it everyday! My body is my best friend and I try to take care of it and in turn we do amazing things! I am so grateful for my health and my body! Day 3: Your significant other or best friend: Hmmm, I have a lot of really good friends. People that have been through the ups and downs of life with me and I am grateful for every single one of them. And it would be easy for me to stop at that, but in the spirit of being "real" with you, I will be honest. For those that don't know, I married a lovely man whom I thought was my best friend. Currently, as I write this, I am in the middle of a divorce! But I can say I am grateful for the lessons it taught me. I have loved deeply and will again, I know this and am grateful. It was not an easy experience but it was worthwhile in learning how much I could love, what I could endure and how much of myself I would give up for another person. It taught me many, many lessons and I am grateful for the experience. Hmm this isn't as fun as I thought it would be, wtf?! This is more like freaking therapy! I swear when I went through the questions it sounded more entertaining. What do you think? Should we press on or stop this? Let's do one more today, maybe they get better.... Day 4: Your Children: Also really personal, OMG! As you know I don't talk much about my family here...but in the spirit of sharing I will. My son! I am so proud of my son and all he has achieved! I love him so much and am grateful every day for him. He was a good boy who grew into a good man. He is starting a new road in his life; taking college classes, adjusting to being back in the states and being an “official adult”. Our recent move and the divorce hurt him too, but his humor and steadfastness never wavered. He stuck to his plan and is moving forward. I know I am truly blessed to have him in my life and am grateful everyday for him! Okay that was 4 days of sharing my person life and gratitude. I'm sure it only gets better from here!
I will finish the challenge out and attempt to sort the 1,000's of pictures I have of my recent trips so I can get back to travel posting, yeah? Catch you later- Things that make me happy: 1.) Travel (Like you didn't see that one coming). 9.) Is of course being healthy. Without your health you have nothing. What makes you happy? I'd love to know. Catch you later ~ Greeting from the land of Chocolate! :o Hope you had a lovely Valentines. I did.....Sorta. To be quite honest you can have TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING. Like a buddy of mine just said, "He means well and all. But next time just tell him to go to Tiffany's and skip the candy crap!" These are nice flowers and all. But I really like roses. It's just like I don't want to bitch, but why won't he listen, you know?? I like the iris and the lily, too. BUT I told him NOT to buy for me. But I really like roses. I have asked other women what they do and 1/2 say."HELL my husband/Boy friend doesn't buy me anything at all! I would be happy with anything!" or "I just buy it myself!" WTF? Am I the only one getting flowers and stuff monthly? Then I better not bitch, right? BUT why won't he listen when I *hint* not so MUCH CANDY, not SO MUCH, STOP ALREADY! And ahem, in his defense HE didn't send all of this. (Looks somewhat guilty...But ya know I'm not married.) I'm going to go on a juice fast in about 2 weeks to get rid of all the crap I DID EAT.
Catch you later- Bonjour! How are things? Hope you are having a fun Valentines Day & your feelin the Love! I actually am. :D I will update the 14 days of Valentine Loot Saturday or Sunday when the rest is in. Read about some of it here - if you don't know what Im talking about. I've a date Saturday night, not tonight. (Be on the look out for more blurry food pictures, lol) I've been so busy I haven't really had time to bake or even shop for V. gifts. I usually, well I have in the past, ok a few TIMES, I have baked cakes and cookies...for friends, co-workers, etc. I have really good intentions, but thats about all. #FML I did mange to order this for my love. Rick sent me a text this a.m. to see if I had candy for breakfast... so I replied. I actually had a mouth full of food. You know the "See Food" diet, ugh! It was not very lady like, hence I fixed with the cupcake! #TeachHimToQuestionMyEatingHabits (I prob. should not have shared that with you. Just ignore it and look at this crazy tree blooming) I saw the peach trees were blooming. (WTF?! IT was snowing Monday?) so went back for camera.. I edited that picture with tangledfx only. The sun was that Freaking BRIGHT! OMG! I was blind when I returned inside. The weather is even crazier than normal. I met with a new client from Washington state this week and she was still in shock over how crazy the weather was here. She was telling me she had never seen anything like it. One day snow, next day wear shorts & flip flops. Welcome to Texas.. I only edited this snap with Tangledfx, as well. The grass is dead and was not very pretty. :x And And Should be worked out by Monday. Plans form last year all out the window. Why Year of Horse so full of FIRE? Already? Why change EVERYTHING UP??!?!? Is ok, I know everything will work out for best. So I'm just gonna roll with it. I will get back to France when I get back to France. :o Now I have a meeting to attend (Fun) & reports to sleep through. zzzzzzzzz Catch you later- Hey! How's your weekend going? We are having "odd" weather here..1st it COLD and now it's back to WARM..Wearing shorts and a tank top as I type this. #WTF?! The sky looks like rain or ice storm or possible UFO attack at any second.. Meanwhile the flowers are blooming like it's spring... I had a date this weekend, but canceled at the last minute because I still have not finished up my work projects. #FML (I still blame UPS) But he was nice enough to come by my office & bring me lunch (yes, it was tacos!) and this mysterious black box. It's a really nice box. (Fake leather and hinged.) I opened it to find.. Each is full size. I took a quick photo with a water bottle for scale. This is the fragrance I wear for work. It smells nice, clean and feminine without the "Hey, BABY" smell of most perfumes I like. I wear Gucci Rush when I am on a date or day off. It smells like "Hey Baby, Let me take you home" to me. :o Not what I need for work, lol (and he agrees, I guess.) This was a sweet, unexpected gift.
Now I have to get back to work. How the clients know I am at office today? (They have been calling me all afternoon.) I have no idea...Sometimes I think I should just rent my house out and live here. :( But only one more week before vacation... Catch you later- |
