Thinking about Spring Flowers

In case you missed it, there was a HUGE snow storm that hit the Midwest - it was not fun. Tons of snow, ice and wind. The whole time, I just kept telling myself that no matter what happens this summer I am not going to complain about the heat.

I'm pretty pumped that everyday that passes is one more that gets us closer to Spring - yay!!! One of the things I'm most excited about for this Spring is all the flower planting I have planned. I've been collecting pics of flowers I like....here are a few that I'm just loving right now...

L-O-V-E all these!! They are all just so delicate, pretty and PINK!! A bouquet of any of these would be just perfect for Valentine's day....don't you think? ;)

Happy Birthday Molly!

I just can't believe we've had our little Molly for about a year now!! I feel as though we've had her forever. She has been such a blessing to us - she is just the sweetest little pup!!

Her birthday cake....from one of Molly's favorite place in the world, Three Dog Bakery

I tried to get a picture of her with her cake before it got demolished, this was the closest I got. She was pretty excited about her cake.

And, of course, she LOVED it!!! ;)

The "P" word...

Yup, I'm talking about Procrastination.

I don't know what has gotten into me lately but I just cannot seem to get (and stay) on track. I start my day with such great aspirations and then around early afternoon, I just run out of steam. I manage to get a few items on my to do list checked off but, I'm constantly left feeling as though I should be able to do more. It's almost as if I spend way too much time and energy thinking about all the things I need to do - crazy, I know.

So, after a while of this craziness, I did what any other 20-something girl would do - I turned to Google. Because after all, Google has all the answers. ;) I found a great to-do list that breaks down tasks in order of importance. I'm not sure it's going to solve all my "p" problems but, I do think it will help me visualize my goals better.

As a side note, I've talked to a few people about procrastination and so many people have recommended I read Steven Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People...reading this book is definitely going on my to do list. ;)
