It's Your World

I've reached 100 posts! Yay, for me this is a milestone!

There's not much going on! Christmas was great here, we spent it with my mom and Wade's family! Had a nice dinner, exchanged gifts, just chatted! It was what Christmas should be like.

Wade has the time off of work, he's had all week off, he has a day of work tomorrow and gets next week off as well, but might try and put a few hours in at the shop! I think he's getting bored...Doesn't surprise me, he's a busy body. I am enjoying having him home though, it's been fantastic. We sleep in together, it's not just me sleeping in while he gets up for work. We walk the dogs, work out, cook and bake together, we even clean the house together! It's so much better doing stuff together than it is apart (I have a short attention span)

On another note! I'm proud to announce that I've just launched my first website! You read that right! I've started working towards becoming a Wedding & Event Planner! I have 3 clients so far, and launched my website in hopes of building my company further. Click below to check it out!

The dogs are being brats as per usual, keeping us on our toes! Keeping us up late and getting us up early - that's right 8am is sleeping in, in our household!

Hope all of my readers have had a wonderful Christmas! I truly hope that 2014 brings us ALL some fantastic new memories, stories, and SO much more than 2013 brought us!

30 Things - Strengths

Describe 5 Strengths You Have.


Click here to the original post.

1. I am strong willed. I will fight for what I want, and I will get it in the end, no matter how hard the fight is.

2. I'm a rock. I can hide emotion, keep strong, and be there for people no matter how much I am hurting, someone will need you more than you need yourself at some point.

3. I'm a great listener. I can listen to your problems, ideas, inspirations, and I can encourage you!

4. I'm knowledgable in most aspects of life (this is coming from a friend). I've been through a lot in life and can offer guidance, advice and knowledge throughout almost anything you approach me with.

5. I like writing, not particularly by hand, but on the computer, blogs, text messaging or emails. I am a good person for keeping in contact with those who put the effort in as well!

30 Things - Weaknesses

Describe 5 Weaknesses You Have.


Click here to the original post.

1. Trusting People. I can find a way to trust almost any person, whether said person should be someone who is trusted or not.

2. I'm finding out, more now than ever, that I'm that person that goes the extra mile for anyone and everyone. With this, I'm finding that I'm getting hurt, disappointed and let down, more now than ever. This is a weakness because no one goes that extra mile for me, so why should I go continue to go that extra mile and just end up hurt?

3. I'm too nice. I need to "grow a pair" and not be so nice to pretty well everyone I meet or talk to.

4. I over think and over analyze everything. I make things out to be almost 10 times worse than it actually is, except in a few cases. In a way this is a weakness, but to an extent it's also something good because half of the time, everything isn't as bad as I had thought it up to be.

5. I stress. I stress about almost everything in life. Finances, even though they're good. Family, friends, life, driving (especially in the winter), it's all so stressful, and I try to help myself, but a lot of the time I can't.

30 Things - Typical Day

Describe A Typical Day In Your Current Life.

Click here to the original post.

A typical day in the life of Lindsay. Not much happens in my days.

I get up with Wade almost every morning, help him with his lunch and make him breakfast, see him out the door, and depending on the day, I go back to sleep, or I stay up. We have a whole morning routine with the dogs, so my mornings are quiet if I stay up. Once I'm up for the day, I get ready, have breakfast and feed the dogs. Let them outside, get annoyed with their constant bickering over bones. (This is an ALL day thing)

I usually go into town 3-4 times a week to clean at my clients houses. The rest of my time I'm watching movies, doing stuff around the house, scrapbooking, reading, doing some online marketing for Organo Gold, Wedding Planning, or House Cleaning Services!

I start dinner when Wade says he's on his way, usually it takes him about an hour to get home, I feed the dogs, and they go outside again. When Wade gets home we eat, workout, shower, catch up on our PVR'd shows, clean up the kitchen and then head to bed to do it all over again :)

30 Things - Pet Peeves

Describe 10 Pet Peeves

Click here to the original post.

1. People who chew with their mouth open - I feel like this is incredibly self explanatory!

2. Ladies or Gents who wear PJ pants, "lounge" pants or sweat pants out in public and feel that it is completely ok.

3. Drivers who fail to use a signal light for the drivers ahead of or behind them. This is just plain dumb, no wonder there are so many accidents.

4. Lovely people, who feel it is necessary to talk on the phone while at a cashier - whether it be a gas station, grocery store, clothing store, or whatever other kind of store - it is still rude!!

5. Lazy people in the winter who cannot A). Turn on their headlights when it's dusk, raining or snowing hard, B). Brush the snow OFF of their vehicle so that it can be seen (and I'm not just talking the windshield), there are fines for these people, and I wish they were handed out more!

6. When people don't use their manners and say the simple "please" or "thank you" when you do something nice for them, or they need you to do something nice for them.

7. People who don't cover their mouth when they cough or sneeze, and I mean it's REALLY easy!

8. When you're on a buy/sell site, arrange to meet with someone at said place at said time, and THEY don't show up, that really ticks you off!

9. People who can't clean up after themselves, whether it be they eat at your house (friends or family) and they can't put their dish anywhere near the sink, dishwasher, or counter...

10. When people ask you for a beverage at your house, alcohol, pop, juice, whatever it may be, insist on a large glass, then proceed to LEAVE half of it in said glass, and don't do anything with it...what a waste! Ask for a small glass, and have seconds if needed.
