TAPP 2012 Carlsbad California

27th year of birth

So far, the 27th year of my life has turned out to be quite nice. The weekend of my birthday was spent on the beach of Carlsbad South State park. Then I came home to my room being heat attacked from my girlies. Christi Killian moved home. I had the ultimate birthday party on a friday with a full on cake fight, pizza, swimming, and movie. Peeps came over from the ward sunday night for games. I got to go out with my work team for a lunch shindig. I got to spend last weekend in Mexico with 5 of the coolest people ever.  

I feel like I am missing something too! I will have to upload some pictures from the past few weeks and that will jar my memory!

Now it's back to school for another class before I take a short break for MEP. I can't wait for MEP and LAGOON and roadtrip with sister and family and fireworks and fourth of july and mexico again. ahhhhhh I can't take it. Somehow I need to fit crafting into the equation. my "to-do" list is getting monstrously long. Cleaning toilets can wait, I have crafting to do.

24 hours in a day.

Lately I have had different circumstances that made me stop and do some thinking. Not just recently, and not just one person. There is no need to take offense to others actions, but it is simple, we have time for what we want to have time for. The same goes for money. We have money for what we want to have money for. Have you had that happen? When someone invites us to do something uninteresting we have homework to do. But when it’s something we want to do there is somehow less homework then we anticipated and more time the next day to get it completed. No money for that trip with those friends, but plenty of money for that trip with the other friends.

It’s understandable though. We are only one person. We can’t please everyone and be in more than one place at a time. There are only 24 short hours in a day and sometimes it’s hard to decide where that time must be spent. Personally, I am going to try harder to spend that time where it will mean the most to me. Give my time to those that mean the most, and show that meaning in return. Also, try harder to not take offense. Give understanding, because everyone is just doing their best.
