Good Morning friends, I’m back for another round of It’s OK Thursday!
It’s OK…
… to watch boy meets world every morning
… to love my pretty poinsetta in the living room
… to be filled with holiday cheer because it’s feeling looking a lot like Christmas around here! (It’s 70 degrees in Mississippi yo! ridiculous!)
… to be ecstatic about traveling to Houston this weekend for a very short trip because it means I at least get to see some of my favorite people in the world!
… to have 2 posts I need to publish, they are not written yet, but I may schedule them for this weekend.
… to feel awful because I fell behind on sending my ornament for the ornament swap, I’m usually not this terrible and I feel awful! It’s going out today, PROMISE!! Please don’t keep me from other swaps!
… to feel like December snuck up and smacked me in the face, I didn’t get to do a lot of the stuff I planned
… to wish I could create such a successful link-up!
… to wish I knew all you fabulous ladies IRL!
… to want to experiment with crafting ideas over the holiday break! Y’all may see a changed woman in the new year!
… to be stressed about something that I need to just let go of, so I’m asking for prayer on an unspoken request, thanks friends!
… to comment on an instagram photo immediately when you wake up, then immediately realize that it was not the person you thought it was who posted that photo and find no way to delete your comment… so you must leave another one explaining
… to be excited about getting a new blog design when I reach 100 followers! If you like what you read, follow along! 🙂
Happy Thursday sweet friends!!
Look for my Mississippi String Art Post and my Christmas Cookie Decorating Party post this weekend!
As y’all know, I’m getting in this pinterest kick. Friends and I are trying to do a new pinterest project every two weeks, so let me know which are your favorites. I’ve already done the string art project and the date night jar and those went great, so I’m excited to get started on these!
This would look great in a vintage inspired kitchen, I don’t necessarily have one of those, but I’d love to create this project and use it in the future.
Sometimes I wonder where my life is going and what I’m doing. I realize I’m only 23 years old, and I’m suppose to have my whole life ahead of me still, but what if you don’t? You hear about people who are unexpectedly gone at any age and it’s heartbreaking. Did they live their life to the fullest? Did they get to do everything they wanted to do in life?
I’m thinking through what my new years resolutions are going to be, and I want 2013 to be remembered. I want to accomplish a lot of my 100 in 1001 goals, I want to see beauty in every day life, the type of beauty that stops you in your tracks and makes you smell, see, and hear everything around you at that precise moment. I have a lot of goals for my life and a lot of career paths I want to take… will I get that chance? More importantly, will I take that chance once I see it?
There are a lot of things in my past that I’m like “geez, what was I thinking? (kind of like the above)”. I hate the fact that I didn’t take full advantage of living at Disney World, I missed a lot of opportunities at the park and spending time with friends because I was more concerned with getting the program over with so I could get back home, getting proper amount of sleep so I could work as much as possible, now that I look back on it, it was ridiculous! I didn’t take advantage of that great opportunity until the last month and I regret that. That’s my most recent experience and the one I relate to the most at the moment, but there are no doubt others…
Are there things you regret not making the most of?
Is this something you think about often?
Do you feel like you’re missing out on the beauty of life sometimes?
I’m working on improving my quality of life by enjoying every moment to it’s fullest. I don’t always suceed, in fact, I rarely succeed, but that’s my personal goal for 2013. I realize it’s a little early to discuss and I’ll probably bring it up again, but why wait until January, why not start NOW!?
