Great movie

I know this may sound very girly, but I rented the movie Sex and the City and it was GREAT! I have watched every episode on HBO and finally broke down and watched the movie. And of course, I cried. It ended in the best way that series could end. I highly recommend it to all who have followed Carrie's escapades.

And the job hunting begins

One of my classes this weekend was my business class where we are getting down to nitty gritty, yep, talking about getting a job. I'm a little freaked out. I haven't been to a job interview in 12 years. I know! And my resume...on a disk. I don't even own anything that can be worn to an interview. I'm a mommy, my clothes are pretty much jeans and Tshirts. Pretty scary huh.

I graduate in 3 months and I have yet to know what I'm going to do and where. Man this is hard. I forgot how to be a working woman. Any suggestions are welcome on a really nice interview outfit, just one thing, I hate skirts. Also anyone that knows of some websites that have really great ideas on resume layouts?

Just a thought...

A "secret" movie

A few months ago, I was having a hard night in class. We were discussing affirmations of ourselves and how special each individual is. I have always had problems acknowledging myself in a positive way. And of course, I broke down in the middle of class. Our instructor for this class called for an early break and came over to chat with me for a bit. My instructor, Michelle is not only a massage therapist, but she is also a life coach and stated that she could tell that I put a good face on, but down deep she knew something was wrong. We all do it, and now it was my turn. I had reached my stressed out level and that night was my night to "pop". Michelle told me to go rent the movie "the secret" and watch it that night. So after class off I went to the local Movie Gallery and got it. And it was AMAZING. I cried through the entire movie, and watched it 5 times before I had to return it.

So, back to my original point. I was cleaning out the entertainment system drawer out and there was the movie. So I thought ok, lets watch this again. And again, it reminded me that I preach to friends about the law of attraction, and how their thoughts were creating some of the bad mojo going on, but so was I. It was no accident that I happen to be cleaning that drawer at that time. I have been off this path for quite sometime and never realized it. So for the past 3 days, I have put the "secret" back into my life and it has been a big "wow" moment. Now I know some people say that all the law of attraction is a bunch of who ha, but for me, it works and it works every time. Everything from things with friends, financial issues, even making a doctor appointment with a new doctor (got in to see her in one day instead of 30). Now the hardest thing, staying on this path that I know I'm supposed to go down. I'm keeping my head up. Today, I got up just to watch the sunrise and my one thought of gratefulness was.."thank god I'm alive".

Family visit

This past week my grandpa and my aunt (mother's sis) came for a visit. I haven't seen my aunt in 8 years so this was a great visit. I only got to visit with them a few times since I've got school, kids gymnastics, and blah blah blah. The entire family on my mom's side live in Spokane WA, so of course the question that came up all the time was "when are you moving up their to be with us?" Me and my hubby are not to interested in moving. The kids are in school and have made alot of friends and I don't want to do to them what was done to me and my brother every 4 years. I think that its very important that kids establish friendships early in childhood and have them grow such as they do.

Today I will be in clinic most of the day. I haven't been there in almost 3 weeks. But my favorite clinic supervisor will be there and the weather here is dark and rainy, and when weather is like this people love to come in and get massaged and they don't care how you do it, they just want to sleep. I love days like this! What's sad is that I'm a massage therapist and I haven't had a massage since May. Sad huh?

Hope that all who reads this today has a great day!

A quote of the day that I received

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." Mahatma Gandhi

Blogger Mom



This news clip really got to me. I knew that there were good people still out there. The thought that total strangers are coming together and helping out their fellow blogger is amazing!

My thoughts and prayers go out to this family.

Updates.....

Thought I'd give a few updates on stuff I've wrote about. First....my car light has now been repaired and NOT by my Caddy dealership. And it didn't cost $1083.00 either. Found an auto salvage guy in Harrison AR that did a nation wide search for us and found a new headlamp assembly in NC. My hubby who is a walking brain (sadly he doesn't have a lick of common sense) took the front end off and replaced it. Although, he did come up with 3 extra pins...hmmm....

Second, Riley has been such a good boy since I wrote about him eating anything and everything. I was at my wits end when the manager at Pet Warehouse asked me the most obvious question, "how much do you walk him?" And I felt like an idiot. I watch the Dog Whisper every damn day and it never hit until that moment. Since then, I take him on a 5 mile walk everyday. I did catch him last night eating a huge grasshopper. To bad chocolate is bad for dogs.

And lastly, the past few weeks, I've been emotional and stressed out and eating like a damn horse when I realized that there is a good chance I could be pregnant. Now all I can think is, oh my god! I'll be 40 next month, I have 3 kids (hubby included), a dog, school. What the hell am I going to do? I'm not supposed to have kids, the tubal took care of that 5 years ago. And then I think, crap, I could be premenopausal. Why does life get this way for women at this age? Where did I put that helmet?
