July 7 "Have You Played the Lottery?"

2012  I have not played the lottery this year.  We did buy some tickets for some people at Norm's work on the big Powerball that Idaho had this year.

July 6 "Who Did You Text Today?"

2012  Today I texted Mandy Erickson, Lindsay, Adrienne, Mom, Michelle, Angie, and Norm.

July 5 "I Just Can't..."

2012  I just can't believe today is Thursday and not Monday!  With the Fourth falling on a Wednesday, it felt like Saturday all day on the fourth so today, on the 5th I can't believe it's Thursday... It feels like a Monday!

July 4 "What Movie Are You Looking Forward To?"

2012 The movie I am most looking forward too right now is the new Batman movie that is coming out next week.  I love super hero movies and I have especially loved the Batman movies.  I just saw the new Spiderman and it was ok for me.  Not my favorite... so I am really looking forward to Batman.

July 3 'What Do You Need To Let Go Of?"

2012  What do I need to let go of?  This triggers many things... physically, emotionally, grudges, actual items.  My first thought went to my physical body.  I need to let go of the stress of keeping my house perfect so I can allow myself to exercise and not feel guilty and stressed about keeping up on household chores.  I have to realize that there will always be something that can be done but taking care of me right now is so important.  I have been walking twice with Angie this past week in the morning.  We have taken the kids with us (and the dog), we sat at the park after and chatted while the kids played.  It was very therapeutic in many ways.  So, letting go of the sense of  "I don't have time to exercise" is going out the window.

July 2 "Who Was The Last Person You Saw Today?"

2012 I don't see the answer to this question varying much through the years.  I almost always see Norm at the end of the day as we climb into bed together.  Unless he is out of town for work that could change, but I thoroughly enjoy ending the day next to my sweetie!

July 1 "Were You Alone Today?"

2012  We were in Idaho Falls visiting Norm's parents and Robert and Lovenia.  The only time I was truly alone was when I was in the shower and getting myself ready for church.  I almost always have people around me, especially in the summer when the kids are out of school.  I enjoy a moment alone here and there but mostly I prefer to have people around me.
