My word for 2016 is TRANSFORMATION (or transform). It is going to be a big, awesome year of them. I want to transform my place into somewhere I actually enjoy being. I want to transform myself to be more comfortable. I want to transform my way of thinking when it comes to my work situation.

2. the state of being transformed.
3. change in form, appearance, nature, or character.

Like a butterfly from a cocoon, I will transform.  This will be my year.

 

Day 6 happy

My parents came to visit.  Mom sewed up my pants that I ripped a little hole in when Rob and I went geocaching a few weeks ago.  It makes me happy to hang out with them.  No picture today but happy moments and happy memories.

On that note, I will be away from my computer for a week.  I will be taking a ton of photos over that week so I will post my happy pictures when I get back.  I probably wont have access to decent internet.

Day 5 happy

Nail appointment today.  Nice and simple. (excuse the bruise. I whapped it pretty good the other day. Still hurts after 2 weeks!)

Day 4 happy

Happy and powerful is how I feel when I wear my red heels.  Laura made me buy them when I bought my dress in January for our Sales and Service award dinner.  I had the opportunity to wear them again on formal night on our cruise in April and will again next week as well.  Yes, I have to practice walking in them a lot.  It is a powerful feeling to walk around the house, do dishes, clean while wearing them and practicing in them  ;)  Try it one day.  Trust me.

Day 3 happy

Today's happy is brought to you by FRUIT!  So simple.  After 4 weeks on a cleanse  with my nutritionist, I am finally able to have limited fruit (berries or green apples) a couple of times a week.  After craving it for 4 weeks, now that I am able to have some, its not a craving anymore!  Wonder if that will work on any other food?  LOL

Day 2 happy

I've tried multiple times to upload a picture of today's happy to no avail.  I will keep trying.  It might not be tonight though.

Today's happy is my empty suitcase on my bed....means another trip is on the horizon!  :)    Cant wait!

ETA - finally able to get my picture to load
