Too Long...Catching Up

It has been way too long since I have sit down to write a blog. My last blog entry was on the 10th and a lot has happened since then. I have so many things on my to do list. Here is a recap of what I have learned, realized and been doing

1) I think I have my answer on where I need to plug in with the House of Faith, so I'm going to take a leap of faith
2) I've learned that the right thing is sometimes the truly hardest thing to do but the most rewarding
3) I'm in the process of learning what it takes to be a true leader and that sometimes you just have to draw a line in the sand and that doesn't make you a bad leader
4) I've learned that I can grocery shop somewhere besides HEB
5) I've learned that functioning on 8 hours of sleep and traveling for work in the same week doesn't work well for me
6) I'm an advertising manager and have been for the last 7 months and I've finally sold my first ad
7) I've had to make specific priorities in my day for extracurricular activities and that isn't always the easiest. I've had to learn how to say no and not feel bad about it
8) Working an 11 hour day isn't the worst way to spend your day when you are passionate about what you do
9) I absolutely can't stand for one thing to be out of place in my house and 11 hour days and 8 hours of sleep in a week doesn't really allow for me to keep it completely clean
10) I picked up the cutest wine rack
11) I went on a whataburger eating binge and ate a patty melt 3 nights in a row
12) I found out that something I had been hoping for didn't go through and God said wait
13) I wanted a new car and again the answer was No
14) I'm learning to accept the no's in life along with learning to say it

I'm sure there are more things but that is pretty much it in a nut shell. I don't like odd numbers so I'll stop on an even.

Today I'm thankful for

1) getting a lot of things marked off my to do list
2) accepting the word NO
