I love the feeling of Christmas It is such a warm, cozy feeling right down to my core. Decorating my house for Christmas, baking cookies, singing Christmas songs. My favorite time of the year :)
I do miss Newfoundland this time of year though, I miss the really big snow storms. They were so intense that you couldn't leave your home for a day or two.

Adam and I leave for Mexico January 2nd, I am so excited. We are legally married but our family wanted us to do a wedding that they got to take part in since the legal wedding was just us and 2 friends. I don't mind doing the wedding in Mexico, I know that it is very important to our families. We are going to Mexico for 2 weeks, then dog sledding in the Rockies for a week. it is going to be amazing.

We have some really big decisions to make in February. We have the opportunity to move to Fort McMurray and take over a multi million dollar business which is amazing. Fort McMurray is an oil town, nothing but oil and money. The town itself is super over priced and very dirty. Its small and crowded. The town is all about money, people commute there, 3 weeks there 1 week home.. that sort of life. We would permanently move there for 10 years. I am okay to make that commitment. I lived there before.
The other side to that story is, we have a beautiful home in St Albert, one of the most luxurious towns to live in around here. I have made some amazing girl friends, I haven't had that in a long time, Adam and I have a life here that we love, except his work schedule. He is way too busy.
There are a lot of pros and cons to both situations. Fort McMurray is very isolated. So do you choose happiness and comfort or millions? Adam and I will be happy no matter what the choice because we both believe that everything happens for a reason. So I am open to the options. We are not deciding until We get home in February.

Happy Holidays <3

Hello Ladies,

It has been a stressful few days. I am about to switch positions in my job scene today, I am not sure yet what I am going to be doing, I has caused a lot of stress in the last few days, I am not sure why I am letting it bother me. I think it is because I know the difference of being an employee vs. being a business owner. I will be there in no time, and as always, you can't have everything over night. I just have such an advanced mind, and the ability of my mind is limited some times as a employee.

Also, there is animosity right now between my dad and my boyfriend. It is really bothering me because I don't want the tension, I need them to get a long. My father is a very successful man, he is 46 and financially free. He is my mentor and one of the most important people in my life. He has been there for me through everything.. and well he is my father!!
My boyfriend is defiantly the love of my life. I know without a doubt that I want to spend my life with him, and he treats my like a queen. Our relationship has all of the right aspects, and he supports me and pushes me. There is nothing unfulfilling about our relationship.
Adam and I moved into my parents basement in the end of January because they begged us too for a year to save money and help them. We thought it was a great idea as Adam is going back to school to get his journey man trade. He is really trying to learn from dad, and trying to get ahead. My dad just can be extremely pushy and critical. I am used to it, but Adam is not used to that in his life. I have no idea what to do about it!

Anyways, What do you think about net work marketing? Do you think it is a good business to do on the side?

Have a great day :)

I just recently learned what peoples three main regrets are when they are on their deathbed.
1) Not taking a leap of faith
2) Not sharing how you actually feel, good or bad.
3) Not forgiving somebody or yourself.

In learning that information, I have committed to being a bigger person, and not letting anything hold me back. Ever since I was in a traumatic accident that changed my life, I have always been fearful. Now I am committed to doing one thing a day at least that scares me.

In the last few weeks I have figured out what I want to do with the rest of my life. I will own a fashion design company. I have to move to a different province If I want to go to school for that. School isn't necessary, because I know business inside out, but I need to learn fashion business.

I told my father today, that I want to move to Vancouver in the next 2 years, once my boyfriend is finished his schooling, to start this. He was very angry at me, and he really made me feel like my dreams aren't important. I know that he is coming from a good place in his heart, but I really wish that instead of yelling and putting me down, that he would come over, hug me and tell me that together we will find a way to make my dream happen, even if I have to wait 5 years.

I am the type of person who has a hard time committing to something that I don't love. I think its terrible for your health and spirit to work at something you detest. I want to get up in the morning and love what I do. Right now I don't, I am sick of being an employee, and I want my own business. I will committ to something, and jump head over heels into it when I start doing all the things that I love in life, speaking to people with addictions, being a part of the fashion world, having a family with my boyfriend and marrying him soon. I am turning internally to find the answers and I know they will come, it is just a matter of time.


Have a great day!
