Times, they are a changin'

A good friend once told me that you aren't going to tbe happy all of the time. My first response was that of the ultimate optimist. After I thought about it a little more, I realized that he is right. I am happy with where I am in life right now, but there is always a little something that I wish I could change: my job, my pay, gas prices, where I live, seeing my family, doing what I really want in life, changing my nail color, buying that cute necklace I wanted... There are always little things on my mind.

Today, as well as the rest of the week, my goal is to be happy with whatever I am doing and to free my mind. I am going to focus on what I have, what I do, what I need to do, and I will stop focusing on what I don't have, and what I can't do.

I don't have much to say other than that. Thanks for reading and sticking with me this long. It certainly means a lot to me.

California looks good on you...

Thanks Megan. I needed to hear that. It's a funny feeling to go back to a place where you spent your whole life. You know every nook and cranny of the place, yet you are visiting. you're not staying... just stopping in to say hey.

I made my trip home to Alabama a couple weeks ago to visit my friends and family. It was such a wonderful trip! I got to be with my 2 neices and my lil man just about everday! I spent everyday with my mom, got to see my dad play drums and got to see some old friends. The week went by way too fast...

After that, I flew up to Illinois to drive out to California with Donnie. It was a very long road trip, but we had a great time and got to see some AMAZING scenery!

Iowa's sunrise was actually really pretty.

Packed packed packed in so tight.

CUTIE.

Colorado = LOVE.

Love my polaroid camera.

Utah!

Cool trees...

...and pretty flowers.

So Donnie is here for good. We've had lots of fun over the last week :) I am so excited to be hitting the beach soon. Work hours got cut a bit, which kind of sucks but at the same time it's nice to have a little free time. Ross, the other half of The Heroic Charade, is coming to visit in less than 2 weeks and my boy is on cloud nine.

Not too much going on right now... school starts in a few weks and I am actually pretty excited about it. The west coast is pretty mellow these days.

I wanna know how everyone is doing... Send me an email, a text, a banner in the sky... just about anythign will work. :)
