I know I cannot change others. I try dang hard to! Espically with my husband… I want him so badly to push himself and to really try to be positive and live his life (OUR LIFE) to the fullest but I can’t do it for him. I have tried everything I can. It’s up to him and I need to step aside and just let him figure it out. That’s SO HARD for me because when he doesn’t try… that mean he does nothing. That hurts me so badly. I just need to focus on myself. *sigh* I have my faith. I have The Gospel. I will pray and pray some more then rely on Him to see me through these times.

Another day, another walk outside!!! Here’s Katie all ready to ride along! Pushing a 30ish pound baby in a stroller up and down hills in summer heat is DEFINETLY a workout.

I walked down a road I haven’t in a while and there is a beautiful pasture so I took a moment to take a picture of the green!! Isn’t it pretty?? Sometimes I see the cows and bulls chompin’ on some hay! I really wish I had a workout buddy to enjoy all these walks and pretty scenery with me. I’ve got Katie tho…

We came back home and again, I let her play outside in the front yard while I drank some water and read my scriptures. I decided to call Mom and talk to her for a bit until my cellphone DIED! I took Katie inside for her snack then called Mom back once I had my phone on the charger. We talked a good bit longer then I put Katie down for her nap, fixed my smoothie then took a nice, refreshing shower. Eventually ate lunch and the rest of the day has been busy but the usual. Got started on some more laundry, started dinner and fed then put Katie to bed since she was super cranky and tired tonight!

I’m sitting here finishing THIS…


Baked, seasoned chicken with a sweet potato, little bit o’ baked beans and not pictured is a side of creamed corn in a cup plus of course some H2O!

Alright… I’m out! Tomorrow’s temp is supposed to be 100 so the heat index is probably going to be crazy!
