Motto to Live By

*PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION*

My new motto to live by.

This next school year i really want to better myself. i can't ask someone to do it for me (though that would be nice wouldn't it?) So i need to start one step at a time and this will be the phrase to help me with it. 

i have a whole list of ways i would like to be better. 

                                          ~Spend more time in the Word

                                          ~Exercise more

                                          ~Study harder

                                          ~Have a decent blog (that doesn't take up much time)

                                          ~Pick a definite major

                                          ~Invest in relationships more

                                          ~Win a million dollars

i won't be perfect in a day (and i doubt i'll be able to accomplish that last goal anytime soon) but at least i'm getting somewhere. I don't have to compare myself to others because it's about  

*Progress not Perfection*

Another quote that is live-by-able: 

Well at this point i'm going rather slow but i'm not in last! 

This next year i'll keep trying to remember that i don't have to be the best but to just keep making progress. So i need to get off the couch and get moving!  

these days

isn't life great sometimes? 

those days you just get a *HUGE* grin on your face and don't care how loudly you sing in the car? 

yup i may or may not have had one of those days. everything just fell into place just the way it should. 

life is good isn't it? 

here is a small update on what i've been up to lately.

workin those raspberries has been fun...
workin with friends, beautiful scenery, and a great tan. 

thats what i get to see everyday. i just wish it had been clear that day because then you can see the beautiful canadian mountains. 

next on the agenda is the NWW Fair. 

that will be a new experience trying a job i've never done before but a fun one. *if anyone is up for a day at the fair just give me a call!* i'm most excited about all the yummy foods! say poffertjes, mini donuts, lemonade, fried candy, funnel cake, and more. it's enough to get your taste buds all sorts of excited! 

i hope this passes as a blog post and you all don't regret reading about my little life. i'm just realizing i don't know what to do with those ideas i said i used to have! 

Here I Go!

Thanks to the positive help of many and despite one naysayer (you know who you are) I am joining the blogging world!  As some lovely friends may know I am clueless when it comes to blogging but I am going to just learn as I go!  Any tips/ideas/suggestions are *more* than welcome!! 

I don't know what exactly I'll do with this but I have a few ideas.

I'll keep this short today but there is more to come! 

Later lovlies!
