Auggghhh, MONEY!!!

It's amazing how much our lives depend on money. It really makes the world go round. I have been thinking about being a child life specialist (the financial part anyway) and I am very curious as to where this will take us financially. I don't want to sound prideful, but I do want a career where I can make pretty good money. I understand that I won't be rich, because we all know that dealing with children is not a money maker. I do, on the other hand want to be well off. I know you are probably thinking...what about Karnell? I want him to be successful as well, but this is a personal goal of mine. I was just thinking, my 10 year high school reunion will be in May of 2008! What have I accomplished in 10 years? It's a very good self reflection question. Not only that, but between now and May, what can I do, to push myself a little closer to my dreams? For that matter, what are my dreams? For all of you reading my blog, what are your thoughts?

Today is a good day...



Can you believe that was snow on the ground! (in Oct.)




At the airport!



A view of the mountains...very blurry, but something!

Me! Going to ge our luggage!







Today is a happy day! Nothing going wrong... You just gotta love days like that. I am so happy that it's Thursday. I forgot to tell you about our trip to Denver! We had a blast. I love the mountains. For those that are just tuning in, Karnell was in a drum competition in Denver, CO. Neither one of us had ever been, so it was really exciting! There were nine great drummers. We really enjoyed the competition. Karnell didn't win, but the guy that did win, really deserved it. The judging was fair and just. So I promised that I would have pictures for you to see; so here you go!

A new outlook on life...

If you haven't noticed, I changed my title from being "inadequate" to "powerful beyond measure". I have really taken this quote and ran with it. It has been the answer that I have been searching for for months. I am strong, I can do all things through Christ. I have to overcome my mind, and therefore, I am! It's such a simple concept, but the human mind is so strong. Just to tell a little bit about myself; I use to be a "go getter". I was very self motivated. Over the past couple of years, I have become, someone else. I hated seeing what I looked like in the mirror...what I had become. Well, now that is all about to change, I want to be what I was called to be. Sure, it may take some time, but with God's help I will do big things for Him! Stay tuned...more of me, is on the way!
