A Look Back

March 15, 2011 | Uncategorized

I thought it would be fun today to do a look back at where I was a week ago, month ago, and year ago today! To me this is one of the fun things about blogging. I can always look back and remember fun memories!

Well…a week ago today I had just moved into my house and didn’t have internet yet, so I blogged a message from my phone..Please Don’t Leave Me!

A month ago today was February 15, the day after Valentine’s Day. I blogged about When Things Don’t Go As Planned. I was very frustrated as I wrote this post, dealing with handling adversity and when plans change/don’t go my way. This has been a very trying year for us and I haven’t always had the best attitude, even though I know I am the one in control of my attitude! Just call me stubborn! I am happy to report SOME things have gotten better, but we are still dealing with some “changed plans” that are hard to swallow. As is life I guess! I am really working at trying to change the way I react to negative situations to have more JOY!

A year ago today I was in DISNEYWORLD with my mom! Sad times. Why did I remind myself of that? I didn’t blog that week, but I can tell you we had fun in Disney, but it was SO CROWDED, COLD and WINDY! I vowed to NEVER go in March/Spring break again! HERE is the post I wrote when I got back. Apparently it was a quite chilly early spring!

Speaking of Disney, the countdown is on for our cruise! 71 days and counting! Seriously, I’m counting. I have a countdown ticker on my phone!

Isn’t it funny how things change in as quick as a week, or as long as a year? I am a sentimental fool so I love looking back! My favorite way to look back is to see when I am improving in something, so be on the lookout for before pictures for my 6 weeks to 6 pack abs pictures!

    It is crazy how fast time changes things….and when I think back to last year, I was extremely busy with an infant and hadn’t gotten serious about getting back into shape yet!

    So jealous of your cruise!! My boyfriend and I were invited to go on one this summer but it’s not going to work out.

    Did you say somewhere that you used to work for Disney?? What did you do there?? My boyfriends sister is “friends with Mickey.”

We booked with @savvy_stay, which means no third-party fees, no fluff — just direct access to professional hosts and more room in the budget for fun. 🙌🏼 

They even have a price comparison tool on their site so you can see what you WOULD be paying if you went with “the other guys.”
