Birthday Self-Reflection

I found these 21 great self reflection questions on www.delectableyou.com I though it would be quite fitting to answer these questions myself considering in a week and a half I will be turning 21! Make sure you check out the links back to Lauren’s self reflection. Alright, here we go: 21 questions to ask yourself before your next birthday Was I passionate about my career, my relationships, and my life in the last year? Not near enough. Did I nurture my passions this year? If yes – how? If not – why not? And what can I do differently this year? No, my first thought was ‘what passions?’ I have lost myself the last couple of years. I owe it too my self this year to not only focus on my children, but myself as well. What were my top 3 goals for last year and did I accomplish them? If not – why? Pass my classes, move out and get back into shape, 2 out of 3 accomplished. What are my top 3 goals for the coming year?  Self-care, license and honor roll. How much did I la...

Almost That Time Again

The other day I ran into Walmart to pick up a few things, the very first section you come to is all of the seasonal stuff. Just last week I was there looking at the pool floats, bubbles and other outdoor toys, but to my surprise it was all GONE! How could it be gone, didn't summer break just start?! It is offical, Walmart, Staples and Michaels all have their back to school displays up and ready to go. I am not perpared for this, it is happening too fast. back to school clothes and supplies is too darn costly. Thankfully Lucas doesn't need any new clothes because all of Logan's that don't fit anymore now fit Lucas. Chloe and Logan both need some fall clothes but it is the indoor and outdoor shoes that they both need that will be expensive. Chloe is going into 1st grade, just asks for $30 and they provide all the school supplies. The boys are only in daycare so they don't need school supplies either. I got off lucky didn't I? NOPE, I start college in the fa...

Welcome July, Happy Canada Day!

Usually we spend our Canada Day weekend at my family’s cottage, this year unfortunately we did not. Chloe spent the day with her father, and then spent the night with her Nonnie (her father’s mother). Lucas colored with me for a good part of the morning and then went to my mom’s house for supper and then spent the night with her. Logan is currently sick and has been all weekend, its just been me and him so that Chloe and Lucas don’t get sick. It was a rainy weekend where we live so we didn’t miss out on much besides the Canada Day parade, the fireworks were postponed due to clouds. Logan rested most of the day, I did tons of laundry and then had a super long nap in the afternoon. We’ve been working on organizing the entire house, starting with all of our laundry. Next is Chloe’s room, I have so many ideas for her room. The walls desperately need painted, I have already started on the closet doors.
