Day 4

Well, I can honestly say making positive changes really makes a person feel good. I wonder why others don’t do it. Better yet I wonder why it has taken me so long to do it myself. I guess for most it is just the fear of what change can bring or what can be lost when changing something.

When one decides to make positive changes, it does not mean you have to change every aspect of your life. Take some time, as much time as you truly need to evaluate everything. From there you focus on the things you feel you want or need to change. If some parts of your life are going as good as possible at the time leave those things alone and move on to only the things that need changing.

I have found there are several things I want to change. Most are minor things but there are a couple of major things as well. Truly there are aspects of, who I am and how I am that I would never want to change nor will I even try. These things make me, well …me, and they are parts of me that I like and I think others like about me. Look within yourself, I am sure there are parts of you no one would want you to change. That is actually a good thing.

Yesterday I did something for myself. I ordered myself my first smart phone and of course I had to get the best. Okay it is the best in my opinion. I bought the iPhone4 I am so excited. I have wanted an iPhone for the past couple of years. I just always made excuses as to why I should not get it. Of course one of the obvious reasons is the price. I never just go and spend a couple hundred dollars on something for me. I normally shop the sales racks. I will admit it, I am a frugal shopper, well that is if and when I do actually shop for myself.

That is another thing I plan on changing. Not the frugal part but the part about hardly ever shopping for myself. I think I am going to buy myself something at least once a month. It doesn’t matter if it is make-up, jewelry, a piece of clothing, a pair of shoes it could even be just something for my hair. As long as I am buying it for myself I will be satisfied.

I took my Hunny and the boys out to dinner last night. I just wanted us to go out and have a good time. I want to have a family night out at least once a month. We have family night at home once a week but the night out will be something special. I think my family would enjoy that. I know I would.

Every new day is like an adventure, Change can be fun…..
