Quote

Life is not graded on the curve. You don't have to be better than 50% of the population. You just need to be the best version of yourself.

New Couch

We picked out a new couch yesterday. Now to only wait for 10 weeks before it comes in. Oh well, a good exercise in patience.
8 more boxes unpacked and sorted.
Another 20 plus items gone.

Goodbye Dishes

64 plates, cups, mugs, bowls and glasses all ready to go out the door.
Used some tax return money to buy a Kobo since hubs has taken over the Kindle.
I can get books from the library on it which makes me love it even more than the Kindle!
Clutter free and free!
Paid off my Mastercard with tax return.
Dinner with my parents.
Worked on some 12 x 12 books and "About Me" flip books.
Lining up life with my priorities. Love it!

Minimalism

I'm so tired of stuff.
Stuff everywhere taking up my space and time.
I've been reading Minimalist Mom and Zen Habits.
The last couple weeks has already been about getting rid of stuff and simplifying our life.
Now I'm even more focused on that.

Simple.
Minimal.
Easy.

True Story

Hubs: Hey hun?
Me: Yes?
Hubs: Let's have a date night tomorrow.
Me: Okay...
Hubs: But not like dinner out or anything. Just the good stuff. You know the stuff that happens after dinner.
Me: Haha. Okay.

New Beginnings

I was hesitant to start a new blog but in the end I decided it was just what I had to do.
Life has brought me the chance for reflection and it's left me with a desire for some big changes.
I love that life allows us the opportunity to constantly reflect and evolve; to recreate ourselves.
I aim to have this blog for keeps and have it evolve with me.

But sometimes you just need to start over...
