I'm back from my vacation. I've been back almost a week, actually. But I haven't had time to update because I've been working non-stop and I've been working hard on moving all of my ex's things out of my apartment. But I got a new/used laptop today so I'll be able to update often now :)

I miss Seattle SO MUCH already. Every day I was there, I woke up feeling like "This is a good day to be alive". Since I've been back in Houston, I wake up feeling like "Do I really have to walk outside and face the scalding heat and 100% humidity just to make it to my car and wait for it to cool down for 20 minutes and then go to work to burn up in my salon for the next 8 hours?"

How negative of me.

"We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world"

My newest long term goal for the next 2 years is to save up enough money to move to Seattle.

My newest short term goals are as follows-

 -Lose 30 lbs by August 1st.

 -Buy a 48in Flat Screen TV

 -Have my hair the way I want it by Mid-July (Blonde and LONGER!)

 -Be 50% more positive in my every day endevours.

There are more, but that's all I can think of.

Tomorrow, my ex comes home from Seattle. She's coming to get her dog, and most of her belongings. She's leaving her furniture here until the end of Summer, which is okay with me because we don't really have much =/

We have a couch, a tv stand, and an end table.

We need a coffee table, and a TV.

She's taking her TV, her surround sound, her entertainment center, her couches, and her coffee table. Blah. My apartment is so pretty right now....

I hate having to start over.

BUT.... everything happens for a reason. It's nothing but a learning experience.

I believe in karma, what you give is what you get returned. I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned. I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side. I believe you don’t know what you've got until you say goodbye.

I'm done being a debbie downer and complaining about my failed relationship.

From this point on, I'm starting my journey to happiness.

I will be a happier person, because only I can make myself truly happy.

And I will!
