One Day at a time!One Day at a time!

When I sit and think about things that are going on in my life I wonder how do I do everything I do.

That when it comes to me, I take everything one day at a time. I don’t know how much time I have on this earth and I want to enjoy all that I can. My mom always told me to make each day like it was your last, tomorrow is never promised. I know that I try to learn something new or even make something I have never made before. Plus I think about what makes me happy and what makes me sad. I know that you think that is crazy but the fear of the unknown is scary.

I have started to write down my thoughts and what I hope my life and kids life will be like. Everyone’s life is different and you can learn from them. I know over the years I have learned a lot from my friends and family and what not to do.

I know that if you want someone in your life you have to make an effort to see them or even call them. I know that I have friends that have busy lives too and are not always free to do something. I still try but after a while you have to stop trying, There is a reason that a person does want to communicate back with you. So that is when you move on.

I am grateful for the ones I have in my life and make me happy. I will continue to live each day to the fullest. I don’t know where the road will lead but I am willing to try.

Thank you for all that read this.

What to be thankful for?What to be thankful for?

It is the week of thanksgiving and you start to think about what to be thankful for. I know life doesn’t always go your way, but there is always something to be thankful for. I know I have my family, friends and animals. My health I wish could be better and one day it will be.

This is also the time of year we like to give back to others that don’t have as much as we do. I know one day I will be able to give back more than I do now. Each year we find a family or two that needs a little help and give back or pay it forward. I know others would do it if they could but not everyone thinks the same as we do.

This time of year is a little hard for me to because I lost my mom around the holidays and each year that passes I miss her more and more. I know she would love to back and put a tree up and have family around. This is why I give back or pay it forward because I know my mom loved me the best she could. It was not always the fair way but she loved her grand kids and wanted to make sure they got something they wanted.

Just remember that there are animals that need us too. It is getting cold out and they don’t have somewhere warm to stay. Give back to all is the greatest gift of all and it is a way to say that you are thankful for what you have.

So thank you for letting me do this all year long and I will continue as long as I can.

RoughRough

This week was a rough one for me. I had the week off from baking for shows but my health problems have not been that nice to me. When you try your hardest to make sure you stay away from others that are sick it doesn’t always work. I had to do extra cleaning this week to make sure whatever my husband and daughter have or had I don’t get. It was not fun for me at all. As I did that it took a toll on me alone.

I have tried to do things to help me on my own but that has not helped. I told my doctor and I ended up in the ER which is never fun for anyone.

They could do much for me but give me pain medication and hope to talk to my doctor about what is going on.

This week begin baking for another show again and I hope that I will be able to work thru the pain and low energy and get it all done. I know that I will try my hardest. For those who know me well they know I will do whatever it takes to get the job done for this weekend.

This is a short one this week because my medication will be kicking in and I will be sleeping soon.

Holiday seasonHoliday season

It begins during the holiday season. The weather changes, the decorations start to come out and change in the stores. I know for me it’s hard to see Christmas stuff out when Halloween is not even over. I know that people start to shop for Christmas time. Thanksgiving is one holiday don’t get any credit.

I know that this year I have a lot to be thankful for. I am doing better and had a lot more fun this year. I know that I told my daughter to have more fun in life then just work and she has done that this year too. There have been a lot of changes in my life but I am just fine with most of them.

This blog has helped me a lot, I have got to let others know a lot about my life and what I go thru each day. I know that I have more to share and let others know. I enjoy talking about subjects that I want others to know that others don’t know about.

We all deal with different things in life. You never know what one person goes thru unless you’ve been in their shoes. We need more people that see the whole picture and not just what they hear.

I always want to try new things too. I am going to continue learning how to bake and cook more. Plus I want to learn to become a writer or freelance. I know it would be fun to learn. Just remember to follow what you believe in. No one can make you believe in what they believe in.

Remember is there is something you want to know about just comment or email me.

DecisionDecision

What is a decision – it is define as a conclusion or resolution reached after consideration.

We all think about the decision we make, if it will be the right one or wrong one. Some even stress out about the decision that they need to make about life, work, and important information. I know there are times when we go back and forth about what the right decision is going to be. We never want to hurt anyone with the decision we make.

There are times where some decisions are easy to make and it will go well for all involved. There are those hard decisions we have to make for someone else , like a pet when the time is right for them. It may be one of the hardest decisions you have to make in your life.

Those easy decisions on what to wear or eat or even if you want to go out or not. There are hard decisions and easy ones. Sometimes you don’t see any easy answers to either one but life is the same way.

I know that I have the same problems when it comes to myself. I am not sure what to share with others or what to let go. All I know is that I think about a lot of different things in my life and wonder what it would be like if the decision I made is the wrong one. I don’t always share a lot about my life, but for what I do share I know who I share it with matters to me.

Just remember that love ones are there when you need something, so lean on them if you can. Maybe it is friends that need you to lean on, be there for them. I know a lot of people will think about this post and wonder if they make the right or wrong decision in their life.

Decisions can be changed at any time in your life, so don’t think that the one you make today is the final one. It is only final when you want it to be.

HobbiesHobbies

What are some of your hobbies that you do everyday, every week or every year?

Hobbies are activities done regularly in ones leisure time for pleasure. Any activity you enjoy doing in your spare time. Some activities conducted in your spare time are for recreation or pleasure.

I know that I have a few hobbies I do regularly, like baking, reading , listening to either music or a podcast. I have others that I do like cooking, crafting, gardening, watching movies or shows. There are some hobbies I like to learn as wells like learning a new language, canning, or photography.

I know that everyone has their own reason for some of their hobbies. I know that each one that I do helps me in a different way. When I think about a new hobby I look into it and make sure it is something that I could do or have the time to learn. Just remember you have your reason for the hobbies you do and you never have to explain why to anyone.

Please if you have the time let me know what fun hobbies you do and maybe we could learn something new together.

ChangeChange

Season changes, leaves change colors. What do we do to change? We change our clothes for the weather. So it is time to look back at the year and see what we have learned about ourselves and what is going on around us.

Start making plans on what to change the following months or year. I know that I have been thinking about what I want to do. Some things will be hard and slow, but I just have to make my goals small and have little victories.

There has been so much change in my life right now, I feel overwhelmed at times. I have a hard time dealing with it, so instead I stay busy and not think about it for a while. I know that it will catch up to me and I am going to have to face what is going on inside my head.

Sorry this one has taken me a while to write but I wanted to make sure others understand what I am going thru and what I have in front of me to face. I know some will have helpful tips and I am welcome of that. The others that have comments that I need to face what is coming and deal with it because it happens to everyone have no idea what it’s like in someone else’s shoes.

TimeTime

I know we all wish we had more time each day to get everything done. I know I am one of those people. I try to make a plan to use it all the time I have each day. I have a hard time trying to get everything done. I know others except me to do things all by myself but I know I can’t get it all done. When I don’t get things I feel bad. I feel like I failed others that count on me.

I look around at what I have and I feel blessed. I know that I should do more. I just know that my health is what I should work on. I know that I have been trying to, but it has become hard these past few weeks. I am learning to live different from what I can eat.

Life is hard when others don’t know what I go thru everyday. I keep a lot more to myself than let others know. I have a few great friends that listen to me and don’t judge me when I can’t handle life. I decided to take a step back to others that I have a hard time talking to. I know the ones that are there for me and that is all I need in my life.

I even step back from talking to some family members, because I have a hard time talking to them. I’m trying to figure out what one family wants me for. I know that I need to talk to this family member about what is in my mind.

This is a hard post for me today. Others would read this and wonder if they are the one I am talking about. I want to thank you for listening.

my journey will continue later this week. hope you keep reading.

LimitsLimits

This week I like to talk about our limits and when they get pushed too far. I know that I have had this happen to me these past couple of weeks. I was not sure how to handle it. So I had to look for something that would help me calm down.

Remember what makes you feel at peace and happiness. I know that I had to think and push myself into what I need to do. It is not always easy but it works in the end. Baking and reading help me. When I am baking I listen to pod cast and that also helps direct my mind to something else and calms the rest of me.

At night I go to bed early to read and that directs me to what I am reading and calms me to be able to sleep which I need. I know what I need and I just have to figure out how to make it happen for me.

I know this post has taken me a little longer. It’s hard to type one handed that is for sure. When you have a lot of things to do, but when you have to do it slow and one handed. I just know that my limits have been tested , but this is a time when I get to know myself. I know that changes are happening and I can’t stop it.

Thank you for following my journey and getting to know me.

Rest in PeaceRest in Peace

This week was a crazy one, it started off overwhelmed to sad. It is hard for anyone to lose a parent. I know this is because when I lose my mom. There is so much you need to do during this time.

The month of September is a hard time for a lot of people because of 9/11 and a lot of people lost a loved one. My husband grandfather passed away this month, he lived a great life. we will all miss him.

I know this is going to be another short one, because I have a lot going on and figure it out. I know that I feel better after the month is over.

I have some topics that I am working on to post in the upcoming month. So please stay tuned.

just make sure you spend time with the ones that matter because one day they will be gone.
