~Busy, Busy, Busy~

Yes...busy has been my life lately. Mostly it has to do with adding school on top of everything else...but I'm glad that I'm finally finishing my degree. This semester I'm taking 2 classes, I wanted to ease my way back into school, especially considering the fact that I haven't been in school, or written a paper in over 3 years. But my classes are going good. I'm taking a law and politics class (which has more reading then I think I've ever had before) and an accounting class (this is a prereq for my masters program). I really like accounting a lot and I actually feel like it's relevant to what I do ever day so that's good. I have a great professor for my law and politics class and it's quite fascinating to study the evolution of the world by court cases. So...that's my semester so far. And just recently I had another nephew born. His name is Maddux and he's the cutest little guy, except for my other nephew Gehrig of course. But actually, if you compare baby pictures, they look almost identical...the only difference is the shade of their hair. Maddux is blonder then Gehrig. And can I just tell you how funny Gehrig is? I love talking to him. He has such a great personality and that just makes him that much cuter. Saturday we went to go to dinner and we saw a train. I asked him what he thought of the train and he told me that it was really big. I asked him what he thought the train was carrying and he told me "coal for grandpa" and I told him that must be a lot of coal and he said "yeah...grandpa's been bad" So funny! Here's some cute pictures of my boys!

~It's a New Year~

Holy crap its 2011 already. Seriously? Where did the last year go? The last little while I've thought a lot about the last year and how quickly it went by, and what I accomplished this last year, and I have to admit that I didn't accomplish all that I wanted to. And I think a big majority of it is because I didn't write my goals down. So as part of my job, I do a lot of reading motivational books, the majority of which are on mentality. And all of the books that I have been reading have said that in order to accomplish your goals, you have to write them down and read them daily. Well...here are some of my goals for 2011.

1. Paint my kitchen (Ok..so I did this one today, but I thought if I put it down it would make it look like I was already accomplishing something. haha)

2. Finish P90x is the next 85 days and eat healthy.

3. Become a Senior Marketing Director with WFG (this is a Branch Manager position)

4. Get good grades in school...oh...did I mention I'm going back to school? Yeah...not sure what I was thinking but it should be good. I'm going to finish my degree in Poli Sci and then go on to get a masters in Finance...I'm super excited about the Finance classes.

5. Run a marathon (hopefully in April, but this might not happen until closer to the end of the year)

So there are a few of my goals...yes...I do have more, but I'm not going to post all of them on here. I'm super excited for 2011 and the potential that is available to me. It's going to be a fantastic year! Wishing everyone a fantastic year!!
