Where Are Your Thoughts Taking You?

(From my friend Linda Wagner)

Where are you? Where are your thoughts taking you?  Are you living in the past, playing reruns of all the mistakes you’ve made or the people who did you wrong?  Or are you constantly trying to predict the future?  Will I get that job?  Will I find my soul mate?  Will I ever find my true passion?  What if I don’t succeed?  What if I end up alone? How much weight have I gained because I totally enjoyed sweet potato fries twice on Sunday and went to YogurtLand three times?

Listen, you can’t relive the past and you can’t predict the future so you may as well live in the present.

Eckhart Tolle says in his book The Power of Now, ”Nothing ever happened in the past; it happened in the Now. Nothing will ever happen in the future; it will happen in the Now…Life is now. There was never a time when your life was not now, nor will there ever be.” THIS. IS. IT. LIFE IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW and if you are daydreaming about the past or the future, you’re missing it!! Bring your thoughts back to the present moment.  



Enjoy today!

High Five For Friday!

Hey Y'all! I am not sure of anyone is reading this because I am off Facebook for Lent but hey, that's ok! I know one cousin who reads my blog and I have three subscribers so that's good enough for me! It's also kind of like an online diary. I miss when I used to blog a lot and hopefully with Lent I will be able to do some quality posts :)

It's been a bit since I did a High Five For Friday so in no particular order, here's what's been happening this last week!

1) This morning I worked Keggs and Eggs at Lodos! Reported to duty at 6:30AM. It's a super fun event and I worked it with Kari who I love! Here is the post about last year!

2) Peyton is doing much better now that I don't keep her in cages. She is a lot more calm. Here she was yesterday resting her sweet little face on my leg as I worked :)

3) Finding BRAND NEW UGGS at the Goodwill is always a good thing :)


4)I had great intentions with my eating this week and totally meal prepped Monday but at work I have had some pretty serious run ins with Easter Candy and you know that stuff is amazing. Let's hope it's out of my system!
5) This definitely happened Saturday night. Cousin Britney and I ordered Bad Grandpa on On Demand and had a grand old time! Note the Peyton photo bomb :)

Have a great weekend Friends!

Check Out Your Girl!

Hey All!

I got to do an interview for "Colorado Conversations" a couple weeks ago that will air next weekend but it's already live! If you click this link and click the "South Broadway Antique" interview, you can check it out!

 
I think I made us sound really good! (Which we are of course!) This was one of my first big gigs this year for the Association that I am President of and I think it came out really well!
