WOW!

So.......to say I'm slacking at writing you is quite the understatement.......talk about a crazy couple of weeks!!!??!! Where has the time gone? I feel like we were just enjoying summer and before we know it, its going to be Halloween! The older I get the quicker time flies. Anyways, thank you for your sweet words of encouragement the past few weeks. I love the fact that you don't tell me what I want to hear and you won't let me settle for something just because it is comfortable. You are always ever so gently nudging me towards being a better person each and every day. And, you know me all too well! I believe your words to me the other day were, "The only reason you aren't doing "this" (this=new changes and challenges in the upcoming weeks that I am procrastinating on) is because you are scared. It has nothing to do with capability, or not wanting to, its just that you are letting fear overtake you and drive your decisions." HA! Talk about calling it like you see it! I needed that, I needed to hear it and not just think it, I needed it to be confronted and not just floating in my heart and mind. Thank you my darling, that is one of the many reasons why I am so madly in love with you.

On a lighter note....I found this website where you make all kinds of lists. It is like your life in lists. Oh how it is so straight up my alley....I LOVELOVELOVE it!!!! They make journals that prompt you to make certain lists about yourself; life, career, friends, and a bunch of other things. I take the ones that I like and leave the ones that don't really apply to me. I thought it would be fun to do a few on here....it really makes you think and its super fun (atleast I think so ;)

I figured we could start out simple and then move into the more complex subjects....if a list could ever be complex?

Here it goes...
