Winter Wonder Land

It's officially winter! I again ask myself the same question I always do when we get the first snowfall, "Why do I live here?" Like for example this morning, -27 degrees with windchill. Who wants to go out in weather like that for the next 4 months. Oh well, so off to work I went after bundling up Miss K in her jacket, hat and bulky mittens. Oh how she screams when we try and strap her into her car seat.

However, as I got into my vehicle and started the trek to work, it appeared that God was speaking to me that today was going to be a better day. A "Sun Dog." It was beautiful. It was a small reminder of the attitude check I needed to make sure that today was going to be the best day possible. The "Sun Dog" warmed my heart and gave me that extra little push that I needed and the motivation.

So here I am enjoying this day, and reminding myself to make each day the best day it can be.

With that in mind, join me tonight at the Y, which is a great night for Spin/Cycling. I promise a great workout that will warm you from top to bottom. 50 minutes of heart pumping, sweat pumping music. A great way to end your day, that started out with negative temperatures!

True Happiness

If I actually had real followers on here I might get some feedback on what truly makes you happy? Think about it......how many people can honestly say they are TRULY happy. And if you say, "Yes" I want to know your secret. Everyone has a bad day or two or a shitty situation that they wished they hadn't had to go through. But I do believe there are really, actual happy people out there, And I used to be one of them, Or maybe I was just young and naive at the time as well. The paths we take, the experiences we make, and the people we meet will all contribute to happiness. But I also think that there are too many people out there who aren't happy but aren't willing to take the steps to find out what it is that is making them unhappy and then make the change. For my instance, I have been jumping from job to job thinking that I was missing out on utilizing my creativity that I love so much.  I didn't like the daily task of data entry and poor work environment...

How's My Wave?

As I was driving back from Minneapolis after picking up friends from the airport at 6AM, I was trying to stay awake and read the billboards as I was making the treck up to wonderful Moorhead Minnesota. There really isn't anything amazing to look at besides words on signs after Fergus Falls. However, as I neared Barnsville, and noting (only 30 more miles) a sign on the left side of the I-94 caught my attention. There was Cenex sign, with a 3-D Cenex man waving at those passing by with a speech bubble " How's my waving?" And then a number followed 1-877-CHAT. Now, I have no idea what the purpose of this billboard is. I have been contemplating this for the entire weekend. Is it brand recognition? A friendly hello? The billboard itself isn't selling anything, but it does catch the drivers eye. Whoever designed this billboard was creative, but I'm still confused as to what the object of this billboard is. Do they really want people to call and 'chat...
