The personal blog of a girl named Alexa
Such a beautiful sentiment. I really think that people would be much happier if they just thought along these lines. A positive attitude is much better than a negative one. Life seems to go along much easier if you are determined to be happy.
I try to keep this in mind all the time but it isn’t always easy. Anyway, I hope you all have a great day and enjoy the picture.
I have been a bit of a loner lately. I haven’t been talking to my family and friends like I usually do and I am surprise they haven’t said anything about it. I guess all the trouble I have had lately just sent me inside of myself a bit and I didn’t want to burden them with my troubles. I know that everyone is having a rough time right now. The economy is really bad right now.
I have never seen things stay this bad for so long and it has me worried. I know that I am not alone in that, and I hope that with the oncoming new year things will get better all around. I am sure that they will. Hard work and determination will take you as far as you want to go.
I know no one wants to think about Christmas yet, but I like to start early. That way I have most of it done and only have to pick up a few last minute items. I have been doing a lot more browsing and window shopping so I have a good idea of what I want to buy. I am sure that I will be able to get some of it online as well.
My son wants a little RC Helicopter. I know that they sell them in the mall at a little kiosk, but I did check at Wally world as well and Wally’s was more expensive, believe it or not. I was rather surprised at that. Doesn’t really matter as long as it is a good one and not a cheap version. I don’t want it to break by the end of Christmas day. It has to last a while. Ah well, I will figure out what to do. Have a great day people.
It’s a Cupid Shuffle kind of morning. I needed something to get me going this morning, so I put on the video and do a little dance. It gets the blood pumping and gives me a silly grin. Now I am ready to start the day and get everything done that needs to be.
I really love the end of summer sales. Not just back to school, but the basic end of season sales. Everything they have been pushing all summer long goes on deep discount and I can stock up for next summer without worrying about what I will need. I just store it in the garage in the summer container and voila! I have everything I possibly need. How is that for planning ahead? Doing my little happy dance now.
Well the end of summer is near. It is almost time for the kids to go back to school and then right after that the weather will change and start to cool off. It will be time to put away the flip flops and dig out the boots and jackets. I love wearing my boots, but I always miss my sandals. I can’t believe that autumn is so close. It seems like summer just got here and now it is almost gone.
Where did the time fly to? I have no idea, but I think I had better make the most of what is left of summer. Perhaps a couple of trips to the sand bar down at the river, or to the creek bottom where we gather to swim. I refuse to let anymore of summer get away from me. So I am out of here to go find something to do. Later Gators.
You never know where life it going to take you. I have been all over this country. Lived everywhere it seems, but each place I have been I have met great people. I have also met some not so great people. I miss those whom I have had to leave behind, but I try to keep in touch as much as I can, by phone or online.
I was fortunate to be able to talk to my brother a couple of days ago. He has his own lawn care company. He has had it for a really long time and has built it from the ground up all on his own. He does a really good job with it and I am very proud of him. I am hoping that he will come visit me soon. At least he said he was going to scoop up dad and head up this was in a couple of months. I can’t wait to see him. So anyway, I will let you go. Have a great day.
I wan to go out on the river this weekend so bad. I am waiting for my brother in law to finish fixing his boat, then we are all going camping and boating on the river. We have so much fun when we do this. We always set up on this island in the middle of the river and camp the whole weekend long. At the end of the island is a sand bar that everyone gathers at in their boats. There is a volley ball net set up that stays there always and we call the sand bar Party Cove. I love it here. I would not want to live anywhere else.
Well the Olympics are coming up soon. I love to watch the gymnastics and such, but the rest I have never really been interested in as far as summer Olympics go. Now the Winter Olympics I really like. I love the Ice Skating and Skiing the most. The bob sled isn’t bad either. I hope we win a lot of Gold this year. I know that the Swim team is looking good. Maybe I will watch them, we shall see.
Things have been getting a little crazy but at least my life is not boring. I’m not a drama queen at all, but i have a large circle of friends and family who keep me on my toes. This week has been a challenging one – but it’s never boring.
