Ten on Tuesday

So I have been following this friends blog for a few years and every Tuesday she does "Ten on Tuesday". It's just 10 random things going on her life, but it's pretty interesting. So I am adopting that. And yes, this week "Flashback Friday" will return. Can't wait either...I have some good ones!

So here we go:

1) I am so thankful to be a 'mommy'. Layla turned 2 last week and she is absolutely amazing. Her vocabulary is massive, although up until last week it lacked 2 key phrases, "yes" and "I love you". I am thrilled that she has now added those to her repertoire.

2) The past week has made me realize that distance does make the heart grow fonder. Having not seen my latest love interest (or really talked to him a lot) in the past week and that has given me time needed to sort through my feelings. Through this, I have realized just how strongly I feel about him and how much I want/need him in my life.

3)One my biggest goals this past year was getting nominated for the "Newcomer of the Year" for the Kansas City Association of Realtors. Fortunately, I was nominated. The award gets handed out today. Cross your fingers for me.

4)It amazes me how one simple, 5 word text can completely change my mood.

5)I am still not surprised how he doesn't get it. When is he going to figure out what being a father means? I saw a quote yesterday that completely hit home to me, "To be in your child's memories tomorrow, you have to be in their lives today". He just doesn't get it and I pray he'll figure it out sooner rather than later.

6)One of my goals this year is to (finally) read the entire Bible. My lovely Dad got me a book that puts the bible into chronological order and you do a reading a day for a year. By the end of the year you will have read the entire Bible. That is, if you read it everyday. I am 10 days behind and feverishly trying to catch up.

7) I have some of the best friends in the world. My life would so incomplete without their love and support. Thank You!

8) I am bored. Real Estate isn't exactly 'hopping' right now. I am thinking of sending out my resume this week but the thought of having to go back to a 8-6 job terrifies me.

9) I think I might be finally be getting past this last weight loss plataea and I am so thankful...11 lbs to go until I hit my goal weight. I better hurry because if I go back to a 'corporate' job who knows when and if I will be able to work out like I am now.

10) I have received several emails and notes this week regarding the blog. It so nice to hear someone besides me is enjoying it. Keep it coming! If you are reading this, I want to know darn it!
