A girl can dream...

Right?

Every girl has an idea of what she wants her future to look like,

Every girl has dreamed at least once about their wedding.

So today I am going to share with you my dream.

Sure this may not happen for years to come,

But hey, a girl can dream!

Hope you like my day dreams!

 To begin with is the most important item...
The Dress!

Resting...

Yesterday I had to get some steroid injections into my heel.

So at the moment I am currently resting it,

Now I just have to wait for the pain to go away!

Fingers cross it will disappear soon!

The injection hurt like hell and so does the recovery! 

But it is worth it in the end... hopefully!

Music Monday!

This week we have a theme to the songs that I am about to share with you...

After some inspiration from my house mate Lisa,

I am going to be sharing with you some of my favourite songs from the year that I was born...

1986!

First up we have...

Manic Monday by the Bangles
Had to include this one, one of the classic monday songs,
Hope you are having a awesome Monday!

Hip to be a square by Huey Lewis and the News
This song just makes me wanna get up and dance a funky silly dance.
If you have ever seen the clip to American Psycho,
The moment when he is talking about this song, just before he kills a dude,
The dance that he does in that song is hilarious.

Greatest Love Of All by Whitney Houston
Oh I love listening to the words of her songs,
She always has so much meaning to her songs.

That's What Friends Are For by Dionne Warwick, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross & Whitney Houston.
I love this song!
And this one I would like to dedicate to all my amazing blogging friends and followers!
You are awesome!
Thank you for following me
And for sharing your advise and blogs and lives with me!

Hope you all enjoy a trip down memory lane to the year that I was born!

It was a great year!

So tell me bloggers....

What was your favourite song from the year that you were born???

Expressions of Love...

Love

It really is what makes the world go around.

It's like a warm ray of sun light coming through the fog on a cold grey morning.

It brings a smile to anyones face.

I am so grateful for the gospel

And for the strong focus it has on marriage and families.

I am grateful for the advice and examples that the church and it members gives.

In todays world where marriage is sometimes looked upon as only a piece of paper,

Or when divorce is more common.

It teaches the younger generation of today, 

The importance of marriage and families.

The gospel teaches us that no relationship is going to be easy,

But that we have to work on them,

Continue to keep them strong.

Marriage and families are important and are not to be taken for granted.

Take the time today, everyday
To express your love for those you care about!

Dear motivation, please come back!

I am a type of person that needs to frequently refocus my life.

I need to look over what I am doing,

Then see what is working and what may not be,

Then try and improve myself, make it better.

Lately I have been loosing motivation in some areas easier then normal.

After having a bad day at work yesterday,

Then coming home to write yesterday's post

It has gotten me thinking that I need to change the way I motivate myself.

One of the ideas that have come to mind

Is to make a visual motivation reminder.

I want to do up a pin board of what my goals are for the next 5 years

Plus I also want to get some photos printed up and make a collage of them on my wall.

I am hoping that this will help a bit

But if you have any other piece of advise I would LOVE to hear from you.

But right now,

I need to work out what my goals are for the next year.

WeHeartIt

This is one of the photos that I want to put up on my wall.

It's a reminder to me that each little step counts towards the bigger picture.

"If you change nothings, nothing will change"

Such a simple quote but so true!

Promise to keep you up to date with my goals for the next year.

Hopefully, if I tell you all what my goals are, 

I will feel more accountable for it,

And I would love any advise that you may have for me,

As one of them will be a big one that I will need as much help as possible!

Happy Friday everyone!

Hope you all have a great day and a awesome weekend!

WeHeartIt

P.S. I am currently writing this while camped out in the living room in a little home made tent with my flat mate Lisa, while listening to rain! How perfect! Well I'm off to listen to the rain while I fall asleep!

Lost it... and need it back!

WeHeartIt

I've lost my motivation!

And I really really need it back!

I need to be able to focus my life again,

And to get to work and achieve the goals I have set for myself.

Promise I will tell you all about it tomorrow!

But in the mean time I have a question for all you awesome bloggers!

I need your help and advice!

Question: What do you do to stay motivated and focused on goals??

10 Simple Things!

Hey everyone!

Welcome to 10 Simple Things!

This week I would like to introduce you to a awesome blogger!

This is Tiara!

Pop over to Tiara's blog 'Tiara In Wonderland'

10 Things that make Tiara happy!!

1. The way my puppy (Anastasia) who is often featured on my blog comes bounding to great me when I come home. It's a great feeling to be wanted!
2. The smiles on the faces of the children I teach at this NGO called Sunbeam. I know what million dollar smiles are.
3. Love letters/emails or flowers especially when I'm not expecting them.
4. Blogging- It is like a stress buster for me!
5. Travelling to a new city/country. There is so much to see and do in the world.
6. Dancing- I can dance for hours endlessly. It brings warmth and joy!
7. Sleeping in late on a sunday morning with not a plan in mind or worry!
8. Driving in the rain... with the droplets falling on my car window.
9. Baking a cake for a loved one. I actually can pour in all my love :)
10. Shopping- nothing like retail therapy! :)

Dear Boy,

I hate the fact that you are in my head. I hate the fact that random things will remind me of you. I hate the fact that I wonder what you are doing right at this moment. I hate the fact that I don't know where I stand with you. I hate that I worry about you. I hate the fact that when anything happens, good or bad, your the first person I want to tell.

If I had never of met you I would of never of learnt how to trust again, how to open up, to have fun. Being you makes me want to be a better person. You believe in me and encourage me.  I always feel comfortable telling you anything, knowing that you would never judge me. You accept me for who I am.

Your my best friend. My life is different for meeting you. I can't imagine life without you. 

I miss you. 

Jess xoxo.
