What’s On Your List?

February 7, 2011 Comments : 2

I’m such a dreamer…I can daydream all day about things that I have to do, plan to do, want to do. Am I the only one who feels this way? I doubt it, but I know that a lot of people are much more practical than I am. Sometimes I throw “practical” out the window, and allow my dreams to take over. The key is knowing when to be realistic and when to reach for your dreams! The aspirations that I have are what keep me going…if I have something to look forward to, or something I want to achieve, I get a boost of determination to reach for those things.

Avar _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-20949449-1’]);
_gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);

(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘https://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();

Admittedly, some of those things are materialistic. I know, I know…materialism is not all its cracked up to be. But I think it’s human nature to have a desire for material things at some point. Truthfully though, the older I’ve gotten, the more emphasis I place on desiring more important things, like having incredible experiences independently AND with family & friends. I’ve gotten a much clearer perspective as of late, since I’ve seen family and friends go through tough situations and experienced some of those situations myself. I was flipping though the TV channels the other day, and came across The Bucket List. Ah, yes, the cliche bucket list…..I honestly was not a huge fan of this movie when I saw it the first time, but I really do like the concept of thinking of and listing things you hope to do in your lifetime. As a self-proclaimed “dreamer”, I have thrown the idea back and forth of making my own bucket list. Likewise, as a self-proclaimed procrastinator, I have not made that list yet……haha.

I tend to think about things on a whim, so I plan to start this list by keeping a pen & paper in my purse and writing down things as they enter my mind. We’ll see how this goes…..I have a few things I can think of off the top of my head:

  • Backpack through Europe
  • Run a marathon
  • Own a Range Rover [Told you I had materialistic dreams…….haha]
  • Become a successful attorney
  • Live in California
  • Have a beach house near Wilmington, NC [So much for not being materialistic ;)]
  • Write a book

This is just a sampling of many, many things I plan to do in my lifetime….what kind of things would you put on your list???

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
