Girls Camp! And an epiphany

So I was put in charge of the food for girls camp this year. It has stressed me out some, and I have procrastinated a little as well, but time has run out, and I've finally had to face the music (whew nice run-on sentance). And what have I found out? I actually enjoyed being in charge of, and organizing this seemingly huge task. It actually wasn't as huge a task as I thought, and I had plenty of help as well. So what did this task entail? Well I had to (with help from some of our adorable yw) put together a menu, then the official shopping list, then shop for said shopping list, then pre-cook some of the food. That's what we did today, and while it was a long day (especially for Ligey). I actually enjoyed all aspects of it. I enjoyed figuring out the menu (who dosen't love dutch oven food, and smores?), but what really surprised me is that I loved organizing it all. The shopping list, how much to buy, how everything was going to come together. I mean I really enjoyed it. Strange considering I have always felt I never was much for organiztion of anything. You should see my house, 99% of the time everywhere is un-organized. I just always felt like that skill was out of my relm. Not so me thinks! I just have to start somwhere small and work out. And as of now somehow my house is as organized and clutter free as it's ever been. By others standards it might not be considered as such, but for me it's in a really good place. And strangley enough I actually enjoyed the last week of home de-cluttering, and organization. Hmm! I think I've been selling myself short all these years. I haven't given myself enough credit. I just had to start small, and work out from there, and most of all be patient. It can't all come together at once. Now I just have to keep it up, not get frustrated, overwhelmed, and give up.


Okay then!

I want a deep freeze!

So I do have one other hobby to speak of, and that is cooking, and baking. I quite enjoy creating new foods in my kitchen. It also makes me feel alive (hmmm still cheesy, but still true). My next pursuit is freezer meals. Hence the deep freeze. Where the heck would I put all the meals I'm dreaming of concocting. In my little refrigerator freezer you say? Nope not gonna work! Not even close to enough room for anything extra. Maybe I'll put the Secret to good use, and think positive thoughts about acquiring a deep freeze. That would be an interesting experiment in itself. I guess we'll see what happens. ;)

I think I like to work out

I don't think I've ever actually felt this way. I have been working out for the last 3 weeks, and for some reason I'm actually enjoying it. I think that right now I have so little time for myself, and I'm at a loss as to what to do with myself when I actually have time for me. I can't even seem to come up with hobbies that I would like to persue. Excercising almost feels like a hobby, hmmm weird! I'm always tired it seems, but when I'm on my treadmill I feel alive. Wow that's very cheesey, but very true (at the moment). Wouldn't it be great if this feeling actually stuck around? I have high hopes of being in shape, and feeling healthy, and that being a way of life for me.

My next goal? Tennis!
