Vision

Have you ever created a vision board?

I have started compiling some pictures, words and thoughts which eventually will make up my vision board.  The board is basically a collage of items that you hope to have in your life some day with the hope that putting together your vision and then looking at it on a regular basis will help you achieve your short or long term goals.  It can be as simple as cutting out the car you would like to drive, the purse you can’t live without but it can also feature words to live by or pictures of the kind of life you hope to lead.

I like the idea of having a daily reminder about what we are working towards and the endless possibilities.  Once I complete this project I plan to hang it somewhere where I can look at it daily. Perhaps an office space? Or perhaps frame it and hang it in a bathroom?

Can’t you just see me walking along this dock...one day my friends, one day!

Happy Happy Friday!

The sun in shinning and I'm oh so ready for the weekend. Not much planned this weekend, which suits me just fine. We are having dinner with family tomorrow and other than that, I plan on catching up on laundry and spending some quality time at home.

Today I am grateful for...
1) Dave
2) My girlfriends- through thick and thin we have each others backs
3) Good books
4) Sunny walks with Chance
5) Music that takes me back to some of my favorite memories

Have a great weekend everyone!

Yahoo it’s Friday!

Happy Friday my friends! I am thrilled it’s finally the weekend, I am not however thrilled that we are going to get ANOTHER dump load of snow.  Silly weather!

Anyways, I received the following link in an email this week from a very good friend. 101 ways to be happy and I absolutely loved it.  I printed it immediately, and have read it over and over again. I love that it’s so simple and so true.

My favorites from the list:

14) Get enough sleep. Sleeping for 8 hours per night can elevate your mood and better prepare you to greet the day.

35) Smile. It takes fewer muscles to smile than it does to frown.

54) Get a dog. The studies showing the positive effects man’s best friend can have on your psyche are numerous: better emotional and physical health and a wagging tail.

63) Hold a baby. They’re cute and cuddly and without a care in the world—you’ll feel instantly uplifted.

94) Turn off your phone for a day. Let people know in advance that you are taking a personal day and can only be reached in case of emergency. Savor the silence.

What are your favorites?

Have a great weekend!

My Favorite Hound

I seriously don't know how we lived without him...he has been with us for just over a year and we love this little guy to pieces.

Spring Fever

Fingers crossed that spring has arrived in Calgary. By the end of the week we are supposed to be in the double digits, and I am pretty excited.  I’m dying to ditch my winter clothes for some fun spring colors.  Is it me, or has this been the longest winter EVER?

Besides warmer days, green grass and patio drinks the other thing that spring signifies in my life is IT’S ALMOST CABIN SEASON (yes, that’s me yelling) and I’m excited.  Almost the minute Christmas is over, I start thinking about relaxing weekends at my happy place.

Happy Tuesday!
