7 & 8....staying the course!

Staying my course I am. I can feel the strength in my body....just can't see it yet. Which is a challenge when your trying to stick to anything...when there is no visible results yet it makes it tough. But like I said I can feel it so I keep at it. Also when I'm out there walking I can feel the changes happening in my mind. It is really making me stronger inside & out! Which I love! I do love my body! I just want it to be stronger...for me...for my kids!
Day 7
Day 8

Day's 3-6

Sorry it took me so long to post days 3-6. Here they are.
Day 3 I used a page out of my journal, I love the color's and I liked how it was a pocket that enabled me to add in extra pictures of Boulder Hill aka: my daily torture!

Day 4:

Day 5: I used a vinyl pouch to add in some of the stuff I got at the Victoria Police recruitment seminar.Day 6: Action! I realized today that action doesn't always have to be big life altering action...even little bits of action go along way!! :)

Till tomorrow xo

Energy!

ENERGY - That is today's word for the 21 day challenge. It's a good day for me to focus on Energy!! I need it! I have it! This is day 5 of my changes! I will hike Boulder Hill later on today because this morning I have to get the kids to Crown Isle to meet my mom. She is going to take them to their soccer games while I go to the Victoria Police recruitment information session!! So excited for that. See need Energy to pull all this off in my life! So that is what I'm going to focus on....the things I have journalled about! I have completed pages 3 & 4. Will do 5 later today as well (I'm hoping to get some bib's & bob's at the session that I can include), then I will take pictures and post!

If you missed the 21 day challenge check it out!

I'm sure I've said it before...maybe I haven't blogged it....anways...the 21 day "thing" is about changing something. "They" say that it takes 21 days to change the information highway in your brain. Every habit you have, every similar reaction is because your brain is literally little "highways" that the information travels on....well the information travels the same route every single time...hence a "habit". So in order to change the "path" that the information wants to instinctively travel we need to make a conscious effort every time to change the path. After 21 days of making that conscious effort apparently the highway will have altered and a new habit will be born! Neat hey! I've done it before and felt it worked. So I'm doing it again. Changing some major things about me that I realized were me! That's the gist of it!

Cheers

21 days challenge results so far

Here is my day 1 & 2. I started this on day 3 so I had a bit of catching up to do. I am going to get day 3 & 4 done today so I'm caught up. The whole process really is a change for me. To make time every single day for 21 days to create a little something will be a challenge for sure...but a fun one! I am including in the journal the process I'm going thru right now as well. I have decided enough is enough with not honouring myself!! So join me for the journey ;)

Day 1 - Cover
Day 1 inside with journalling:



Day 2:



Day 2: flip side
I won't always do two pages per day, but so far that is how it has turned out :)

I'm going to try and figure out today how to post the 21 day challenge link in my sidebar....cause one of my things I'd like to learn more of is how to make my blog a tad bit better....for me! :)

Cheers

Blogland

I used to have plenty of time for blogland, had one of "those" jobs that I basically sat there trying to find ways to entertain myself. At first it was good...but then it got really really really boring. Also some other stuff happened that caused me to leave. So now I'm back at home, searching for a job, and searching thru blogland again.

I've heard before, and told many a friends, about the idea that it takes 21 days to break a habit. I have never actually thought about it as 21 days to create something...neat concept though. Anyhow...I've recently gotten really tired of the way I was doing certain things in my life and have decided enough is enough. So I decided to make some life changes. I hadn't even really thought about the 21 day rule for awhile...then today while I was in blogland I came across a blog that had a 21 days challenge that incorporates art. Which I love. So I'm going to give it a go and wanted to share with anyone who might be reading my blog ;)

I'm thinking it will set my changes in stone! lol...well on paper at least...but it should be a fun journal that I look back on and say "good for you girl" ;)

Here is Rhonna's website with the challenge. I'm not the best at links etc.....so hopefully it works...and yes, that is one of the things I'd like to change...gonna work on figuring out this computer links & printing thing! ;)

hope you enjoy...and maybe join? ;)

blog yah later!

Managed to play!

Well I managed to sneak in some adult playtime! It was actually fairly easy because we had a real "do nothing" week before school started...just to let everyone calm down! lol
