Reading "Water For Elephants" By Sara Gruen

I love to read and before I had my daughter I read a lot. So now I promised myself to get back to it hoping it will inspire me to write some more and motivate me to get my novels that are complete published-only if there were more hours in a day I would be able to complete all my goals!

So I started reading "Water For Elephants" By Sara Gruen and love it! I know there is a movie coming out so it inspired me even more to start it.

GREAT BOOK "Many Lives, Many Masters" By Brian Weiss

I LOVE this book. I read it in 4 nights. It is based on a true story written by Brian Weiss, an experienced Psychiatrist. His patient comes to him and under hypnosis she can remember her past lives. I must say it was inspiring, motivating and really made me look at my life and life in general differently! I loved it so much that I bought my own copy and his other book "Same Soul, Many Bodies."

3 Simple Things To Do With Leftover Ham

Easter is approaching and most of us will be having ham. I recently had it for Palm Sunday and used the leftovers all week. Check out these 3 easy things to do with left over ham:

  • Toss some chopped up ham in your salad
  • Chop the left over ham and stuff it in your breaded chicken breast with cheese and roll it. Bake at 350 degrees
  • Add it to your favorite Alfredo sauce recipe and pour over pasta
See how simple that was! Enjoy and Happy Easter!!

Go for What You Want Quote

"Pearls lie not on the seashore. If thou desirest one thou must dive for it. " Chinese Proverb


Happy Palm Sunday!

I love Palm Sunday. As a kid every Palm Sunday we went to church, stopped by my mom's aunt's house and had lunch at my Grandparents.

A lot of my friends do not celebrate this occasion, but every year I look forward to it. Since my grandparents have passed we all go to my aunt's and I still make sure we go to church. It is those memories of my childhood I want to carry on to my children. I miss my grandparents the most on this day and visit the cemetery every year with a Palm Cross for them.

It is funny how the little things we did as a child still carry on with us as we grow into adults and have a family of our own.

Happy Palm Sunday Everyone!!

Surround Yourself With Good People

I've been so blessed in my life to have so many wonderful, different groups of friends. My husband and I have met so many different people through the course of our relationship and built so many different bonds with wonderful people that we never really realize how lucky we are until we are around them and walk away feeling good about ourselves.

I am a true believer that if you surround yourself with good people; truly good, kind hearted people then good things will happen. Some people will suck the life out of you, hurt you, but when you build that relationship around the good ones life seems so much more enjoyable.

We all have something to learn from one another. We all should learn to cherish one another and those friendships that help bring the best out in us. For the ones who seem to bring us down, or are self centered try to keep your distance. Focus on the ones who bring the best out in you and you'll walk away feeling good about yourself and you'll notice good things will start to happen in your life!

"Surround yourself with good people and good things will happen!"

Life is too Short to Be Unhappy

It's funny how many of my girlfriends and I are going through the same emotions in life. We are all at a point in our lives when we are scratching our heads and saying 'there's got to be more to life than this.' We blame our moods on the alignment of the stars or full moons, but the reality is we feel life is too short to be unhappy.

Now I have a wonderful life, I have a home, husband, child, job, friends, family...but yet I feel I am a juggling act. My girlfriends are over worked, working in an industry where they make good money but are paying the price emotionally and physically. We get together and wonder how we ended up like this.

The positive thing about our "venting sessions" is that we realize we are not alone, we realize the grass always seems greener on the other side and we realize that in reality we are exactly where we WANT to be. See we think if things would be different we would be happier, but reality is we chose to be where we are. We like the challenges in life, I need my life to be a juggling act, I get bored easily, and I need to keep moving. My girlfriends always wanted to move up the latter and don't want an everyday 9-5 job. They enjoy the challenge and their pay is supporting their life style.

We are constantly wrecking our brains on what we can do to be happy, but in reality we are happy, we are where we want to be. We mistake our goals for wanting more and think that because we want more we are unhappy...but it is not true. We are determined to get more, be more, do more, that's who we are. Life is too short to be unhappy...we need to live for today, for the moment and realize we do have issues, we will make mistakes but we will learn from them and move forward because that's who we are!

Go For It Quote
