….oh alright, ME.

I think I need this for my work desk. I love coffee and I make a living writing articles for web sites or blogs. I can write effectively about everything from blackhead treatments to vacations to saving money to splurging money (aka shopping!).

I cannot say I love my blog as it is something I do to keep me at home while the kids are young. But whoever said it was an easy job must be blind or out of his mind, because I have never worked as hard as before – when I working as a boos for five years.

Some inspiration before we go back to regular programming

"Kill Them With Kindness," from Douglas Wilson’s photostream. (more work on his website)

A few friends have been talking about setting up a dreamboard for themselves this year. Many have been saying it has been quite effective in making “their dreams come true” – and it is something worth trying. Not even the best fat burner can help me lose weight – maybe a little more motivation and inspiration will help?

Setting goals is something we are all familiar with. In fact, it’s almost become a cliche that some people no longer pay attention to. Making a dream board can take the cliche out of setting your life goals, and can even help you to accomplish those goals.

1. You can either gather use magazines or image websites. If you choose to use magazines, you should use different types, covering all the topics that you are interested in.

2. Go through each magazine and cut out any random pictures that appeal to you. Allow your mind to wander and follow your instinct. Find bright, colorful images that make you feel fantastic or get you thinking about what life could be like if it were you in that picture. Try to minimize the words that you cut out.

3. Purchase a magnetic board or a large blank painting canvas that is pre-strung on a timber frame and paper glue. These are inexpensive and available at a local art store. (A good size is 1m x 1.5m.)

4. Cut out the pictures neatly and stick them on your board.

5. Place the dream board beside your bed or in your office and look at it at least twice a day for about 5 minutes. Enjoy the images, enjoy your work and imagine yourself leading the life that is in your dream board.

6. You will notice in the following 12 months that you are starting to achieve some of the dreams you have stuck on your board.

I noticed I have not been sharing as much thoughts to ponder images lately. I have been swamped with work and need to focus on finishing the clinislim review I need to submit by this week. I went to look at one of my favorite Tumblr sites and discovered she has been posting a lot (SO MANY!) of cute images lately so here are a few that caught my eye and gave my heart a little tug:
