A mission of patience, peace and paper cuts.

Last night I discovered a cute little blog with a really cool mission behind it.

It's such an awesome idea, Sandy make them and writes positive word on it, along with the web page and then leaves them at random locations.

Step One, Two, Three...

So at work at the moment we are promoting wellness and healthy living, any one that come in for a quote receives a pedometer. Today me and my work mate thought that we would try them out and see just how many steps we took in a day.

I had never used a pedometer and thought that it would be interesting to see how many I would rack up. So my work mate sets up her pedometer, yep awesome they work she's walking around, numbers going up.

I set mine up just like hers and attack it to my skirt on my hip and off I go about my normal day of work. Come 3pm, i'm pretty interested to see just how many steps I have racked up... I look down and see.... 130 WHAT! stupid thing wasn't working properly, so we swap mine over for one that may work.

After some more walking around the office looking like a dork, we check to see how many steps I've taken..... 12! Yep still not working. So my work colleague attaches it to her skirt right next to her pedometer.... walks around.... and works perfectly fine.

These were some of the reasons my work colleague came up with to why it wouldn't work

Because...

~It doesn't like me

~I walk weird (which i don't! lol)

~I don't have a butt

~I don't have enough wiggle in my hips

~I don't have spring in my step

Wow, I think I'll go for... It just doesn't like me :)

Pity thought I was excited to see just how many steps I do in a day.

Craving...

I have a craving...

I want to enjoy a nice warm spring day,

laying under the shade of a green tree,

Enjoying a picnic with a close friend,

Chatting and laughing,

Watching the clouds go by...

Quotes

There are many strong women in history who lead extraordinary lives. Here are a coupleof their wisdom that I love and thought that I would share...

"Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around." ~ Katharine Hepburn

"Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present - and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future." ~ Audrey Hepburn

"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

Love her to bits!

Zoe is now coming up to being 4 weeks old, and oh how cute she is!! I love it that she's slowly starting to be awake a bit more, but she still sleep a lot. The other night me and mum went up to Ang's place to have a girls night- home made pizzas and a movie.

After I made the pizza's and put them into the oven to cook, for the rest of the evening you could find with holding this bundle of joy.

I swear she can sense when I was walking towards the couch to eat some of my pizza cause she would wake up again and threaten to get grumpy again, so I would turn straight around and start to pace again to settle her.

Sure one bonus is that I can give her back to her mother when she gets super grumpy. Gotta love being an auntie.

But most of all I love this little girl! Love watching her grow and well just love watching her, she's an amazing little thing!

Music...

Wow ok so my music collect is growing pretty well. For those who don't know me very well I love my music, I don't go any where with out either my iphone or ipod. I had being in a place where there is no music, sure I can stand quiet place, but not dead quiet, a little back ground music never hurt any one.

My personal music collection is quiet a wide selection of music from classic to pop, from country to rock. Wanna know how many songs I have....

I was amazed to how many songs I have, but more so to how long it would take me to listen to them! 20 days! That 480 hours!!! Wow

What's in my bag?

Ever wondered what people carry around in their handbag? Well on Flicker you can actually search and people will share with you. I find it interesting to see what people have in their bags, in a way it shares with you a bit about themselves, what their like.

So this is what is in my bag....

Project

Over the past few days I have started "refocusing" my life, and to do that I have picked a little project in each area of my life, one of those areas is church.

The project that I have pick for church is that I want to read the Doctrine & Covenants from start to finish.

To do this I will be reading at least two chapter/section per night and one day a week I will read an extra 6 chapters. If I follow this plan then I should be finished in two months- by 6th November.

As I read I want to take notes and actually study what I read instead of just plan and simple reading it. I really want to learn form what the content that they hold.

Iphone Game Of The Moment:

BOGGLE!

I am addicted to the game.
