On my mind

It's been raining all week and I have not one complaint. This time last year we were praying for rain. It was so dry that there was a water conservation put out. We could only water the grass, wash cars, etc... On certain days. Then the foundations to people's homes were beginning to crack. That was amounting to lots of money and insurances of course go up during crisis such as these. Trees were dying and had to be cut down. Almost no one had grass, just dirt. My front lawn sure did disappear! It was pretty bad. So, let it rain, let it pour!

These pictures below were from my drive to my son's school this morning. It was a bit scary! I don't like driving in the rain one bit. I'd much rather be home. Days like these are days I wish I had an SUV.

Can you imagine being in a small size car and driving between these two towers?

So, I have a few things on my mind. Work is one, since I will be going back in a few weeks and getting into the regular routine again. But first let me talk about my 30 day challenge. You know I love a challenge! I'm not as active as I want to be...so I challenged myself to do 30 miles in 30 days. I wonder if I can do this? I'm on day 4 now which makes me feel safe to talk about it. What is the rule about how many times you have to do something to make it a habit? Well, not only do I want to be more active, but I also want to be more healthy. So, I'm even doing my best to stay on a 1200 calorie a day plan, not a diet...but a plan. I don't like to say diets because I don't like them. They are too restrictive. As soon as you go one one you want everything you can't have. With this, I can have what I want, but I just have to keep it under 1200. If my plan works, I won't just be more active, but the bonus is I will be more fit. Hope I can pull this off!

This thing is not always my friend...but I'm going to try and at least play nice.

Lots of walking can go a long way!

And last, but certainly not least I have my new adventure or shall I say my new hobby on my mind. I use to watch and hear about my little sister sell her Mary Kay and how creative she was at doing it. I loved her style and decided I want something like that. I came across Thirty-One and I love bags and purses so what better than selling what I love! So, this is what I want my display to look like.

But this is what it looks right now-only different style.

The one on the right is the hot skirt purse I want to get! I love how you buy the purse then you just change out the "skirts" to change up the look. Gives you a whole new look without having to buy a whole new purse!

I found this to be so cute with my name on it. This is one of those picnic blankets. Cute don't ya think?! Yes, even the bags can be personalized!

I really need to get to this store to get some crafty things to make for my business.

Hope you all are enjoying your summer! And while you are at it....tell me what's on your mind?
