I've Come to Realize...

April 2, 2010

I saw this on my friend Jamie’s blog who got it from Carrie's blog...
Since I’m not on the road and have no travel adventures to share I thought I’d post this. If anyone else would like to borrow it feel free.

1. I've come to realize that my chest-size ... is just fine the way it is. I never really thought otherwise.

2. I've come to realize that my job...can be stressful but most of the time it is fulfilling and I enjoy it.

3. I've come to realize that when I'm driving... I like to listen to music (as long as it isn’t a selection from Jeff’s ipod :), that stuff puts me to sleep)

4. I've come to realize that I need.... to take care of myself better and make sure I find time to relax.

5. I've come to realize that I have lost... the desire to eat, but it is slowly coming back.

6. I've come to realize that I hate it when... I really want to help someone but don’t. The other day I was leaving physical therapy and saw a man with a cane trying to step down from the curb and had a difficult time. I kept thinking “don’t fall, please don’t fall” when I really should have gone over and asked him if he needed help or would have liked to lean on my arm. I’m just not sure of people’s boundaries these days.

7. I've come to realize that if I'm drunk...it must be in a dream because I don’t drink.

8. I've come to realize that money... is nice to have but shouldn’t be the most important thing in life. I wish people had more of it so they didn’t have to struggle.

9. I've come to realize that certain people... will never really get my jokes. That is unfortunate...

10. I've come to realize that I'll always ... have a “poker face” and if pe
ople can’t see past it then things won’t be very fun.

11. I've come to realize that my sibling... sounds just like me and it is fun to trick people on the phone.

12. I've come to realize that my mom...lives far away but is just a phone call away.

13. I've come to realize that my cell phone... still gets hot after talking for 10 minutes and there is no touch screen phone in the AT&T store that doesn’t get hot…no fair.

14. I've come to realize that when I woke up this morning... I’d have to eat something.

15. I've come to realize that last night before I went to sleep... I’m addicted to playing a game on my ipod touch to keep my brain active…following DRs orders! It is called “unblock me” and is from Kira games! I love it!!! You have to get the red block out of the "door" on the right side by moving the blocks around. Some of them are pretty tricky.

16. I've come to realize that right now I am thinking... I should be asleep because I have a 9am appointment.

17. I've come to realize that my dad...is always willing to help people even when he should take some time for himself.

18. I've come to realize that when I get on Facebook...it won’t be for long. I’ve never really gotten into that.

19. I've come to realize that today... I felt really good and took a walk around the park for 50 minutes!

20. I've come to realize that tonight...was a pretty good night. My condo went under contract.

21. I've come to realize that tomorrow... Should be a good day. There is no better way to start the day than a 9am massage to get the tension out of your neck.

23. I've come to realize that the person who is most likely to re-post this is... probably no one. That's ok.

24. I've come to realize that life...can be difficult but the people you have in your life can make those hurdles easier to get over.

25. I've come to realize that this weekend... I need to get out and get more exercise. Now that I can walk without vertigo it is much, much easier!

26. I've come to realize that marriage... is not for everyone, can be difficult, can be great, and can happen quickly for some people.

27. I've come to realize that my (close) friends... pull me through. In the month of March I actually went over my cell phone minutes for the first time ever! Thanks to everyone for helping me through a rough month.

28. I've come to realize that this year... I'm starting a new adventure in Virginia and am super excited to have the opportunity.

29. I've come to realize that my ex … can stay my ex and I’m OK with that!

30. I've come to realize that maybe I should... get rid of some of my socks.

31. I've come to realize that I love... the beach, even though I don’t really like the water.

32. I've come to realize that I don't understand... why people can be so quick to judge others. Let people be who they are and if your personalities don’t mesh then as Sylvia Browne says, “don’t be mean just be absent”.

33. I've come to realize my past... is over and my present and future are what really matter. (I’m keeping that one from Jamie, hope you don’t mind)

34. I've come to realize that parties... are not really my thing unless there are only about 5 people there.

35. I've come to realize that I'm totally terrified... of heights. I’m not sure why but as I’ve gotten older I have found that I prefer to keep my feet planted on the ground, although I am OK with airplanes.

Too Many???


April 1, 2010

I haven't been traveling lately but enjoying some much needed time at home.
Here is one of my random thoughts from last week. At what point do you admit to yourself that you have too much of something? Is it OK to have too much as long as you are comfortable with it? I've come to realize I have a lot of "stuff" but there are two specific things I think I might have too many of...
1. Jackets, a girl has to stay warm right?
2. Socks! Are too many socks bad?
Don't be fooled by the top layer in the drawer which doesn't look threatening but under that layer there are easily 50 pair! I'm too attached I think. Maybe it is tied to #1...a girl has to keep her feet warm too! How many socks do other people own?

More Snow in Denver


March 24, 2010
The last storm brought about 5 inches at my house and it all melted in about one day. This recent storm started with rain around 2:00pm then turned into snow around 5pm last night and it snowed all night. It is still snowing a little this morning but the sun is also trying to come out. This storm brought us about 8 1/2 inches at my house. Other areas got much more. The lights flickered a few times but I was one of the lucky ones that didn't loose power. It was a wet, heavy snow.
I am going to be in Denver for a few weeks so no blog posts about any traveling for a while.

Snowing in Denver


March 19, 2010
Today it snowed all day. The snow this morning melted pretty quickly because the ground was so warm. By around 5:00pm we had about 5 inches at my house. The snow is supposed to last into the weekend and then temperatures are back into the 50s in a few days.


There is a new Karate Kid movie coming out. I saw the preview when I went to see Alice in Wonderland. This new Karate Kid looks different from the original...it has a modern twist. I think it looks like it will be really good!

Departure Day

March 7, 2010
The evening prior to departure we were given bag tags in our room which indicated a specific time we to depart the ship. We got a time of 7:15am! What!?! Our flights were not until 2:00pm. We were able to change our departure from the ship to 8:15am and when we got off of the boat our bags were already on the carousel...that was nice. We then went to a bus that took us to the Orlando airport. It was about a 45 minute drive. We got to the airport around 10:30am. I checked in at United first and asked if there were any earlier flights I could get on and was told there was one at 11:20am. He said since I was premier status I would be number two on the wait list so I told him I'd try it. The security lines were really, really long and I thought there was no chance at all I'd make that flight. My sister checked into American but there were no earlier flights for her so she had to wait until 2:15pm. I made it to the United gate to find out there were 16 people on the wait list with 10 open seats. Luckily my premier status pulled through and since I was number 2 on the list I was able to get on that flight rather than wait for my 3:25pm flight! That was really nice. Neither of us had any travel problems getting home. It was a nice vacation and a good cruise.
