31 Days 2013 - Personal Manifesto

After spending a few hours reading about how to figure out your passions as well as how to find out, which type of career I should be in I am still stuck on that topic. I feel like most of my ideas are so vague and random that I have no clue how to use them to get me to a career that I will thoroughly enjoy. I did find a few articles on creating a persona manifesto, which I thought was intriguing. 

 So after reading two of the articles I felt like it would be a good time to create or at least try to create a personal manifesto. I followed some great tips, which included picking the topics, write down my principles, use strong, affirmative language, and writing it down. Now I didn't actual use pen and paper like the article suggested but I did write it down in Word. This was still really difficult for me to do but I felt like it was more manageable and gave me clear things that I want to work towards.

Personal Manifesto 



I want a career that allows flexibility in scheduling so I can still have time with Lexi and my family. I refuse to believe that there is a company out there that will not be willingly to work with me. I believe that if I work hard for them and achieve what they need they would allow some flexibility.



I will reconnect with John more often so that way we can find a common way to live our new lives. I will find inexpensive or free ways to build our relationship back up and push for us to have even just 30 minutes to ourselves.



I will make time for myself to continue working out. Working out allows me to remain calm, cool, and collected, which makes it better for everyone. I will stop the excuses and continue to work out in the winter, which is the real challenging part. 


I am still not sure if this is exactly how my personal manifesto is suppose to go but off of what I read it seems to work for me. I now have a few things I can work on in my quest for change.  I know that I may not be able to find all these things right now but I do know that I am going to work my butt off in order to be able to achieve these goals.

Florida Keys Review

  Florida Keys April 3rd-8th, 2021 Our Florida Keys trip was for Spring Break 2021. This was the first visit for my family, buy my in-laws who travelled with us have been a few times. We flew direct from Cleveland to Miami and then Miami - Charlotte - Cleveland return flight. Once in Miami we rented a car and drove down to the keys.  Day 1: We arrived in Miami around 10am or so. Got our rental car and headed down to the keys! Here are some pictures from our drive down to Key Largo. We stopped in Key Largo at Jimmy Johnson's Big Chill . It's definitely a bar type restaurant, but for a quick lunch it did the trick plus the patio is nice and overlooks the ocean. Great views especially after being on an airplane all morning. It was a nice introduction to the keys. After that we headed the rest of the hour or so down to Duck Key were our condo was. The drive was fairly easy without a lot of traffic.  Our condo in Duck Key was really nice. It was three units. Two on top and one...

31 Days 2013: Weight Loss!!!

Today has been an awesome day from start to finish!! Things just seem to falling in place and that makes me very happy as well as way less stressed. The best news of the day is that I lost more weight!!!! For those that were not aware I have been actively trying to lost weight since after I had Lexi. Well I lost the 25lbs of baby weight I gained in April, but wanted to lose more. So from that point on I started really focusing on losing weight. It already helped that I stopped having Starbucks multiple times a month and sometimes a week as well as pretty much stopped eating out. At home I focused more on healthier menu options as well as potion control. I also started tracking my food with MyFitnessPal . I truly believe those three things helped me continue losing weight because all I did for working out was walk. I would say around August/September was when I started adding more exercising into the mix. I focused on things I could do at home with the baby so it wouldn't ta...
