Not a cloud in my personal Sky...


Well at the moment i'm waiting for my kitchen floor to dry, i just mopped it. I'm listening to Sarah B., Noteworthy, and Sara Haze. And i'm thinking about how wonderful life is and how lucky i am to have such an amazing life. Seriously, I know i complain a lot but in the past few weeks i ahve really learned how to be happy. And not the fake "yeah i'm fine" happy, but really truly happy.
After rehearsal me and Cassie went to Walmart to go grocery shopping. I've really been trying to get healthier foods at the grocery store lately. And i must say i did a really good job today. Eating healthy is a little more expensive, but it just makes you feel better when you actually eat your fruits and vegetables everyday. Plus we've been talking about health a lot in my family meal planning class, and if i ever expect my kids to eat healthy foods i better start!
Now i'm cleaning. I came home and I finally discovered what has been making our apartment smell kind of funny...our trashcan was moldy on the bottom. Gross. Apparently someone had put something in there without a bag and yeah...it was gross. So i cleaned that. Then did the dishes cleaned the kitchen, swept, mopped, cleaned the living room. Man i just love to clean sometimes. Is that weird?
Anyway the kitchen floor is almost dry, and i've got to finish cleaning the apartment before i have to leave for my gig tonight.
But i just wanted to say that life is so much better when you learn to love yourself and when you learn to just be content with where things are, even if you don't quite know where they are going. And that Heavenly Father answers prayers, even though sometimes we feel like he isn't, we just need to remember that he knows when we need them answered and we just need to learn a little patience. When we are trying to do the right things we can be happy, no matter what is going wrong and answers will come in the Lord's time.

Life is beautiful.

Here, have a song :)

Beautiful Day - Sara Haze

Saturday is the smile on Mona Lisa’s face
A little spare change given
to the stranger on the corner
A pile of leaves deep enough
for my soul to jump into
And all my doubts fall away
and lead me here to say

It’s a beautiful day,
summer songs outside my window pane
And I don’t need my umbrella ‘
cause I’ve already been through the rain
I can feel the sunshine on my face,
not a cloud in my personal sky
It’s a beautiful day, It’s a beautiful day

Change the world,
you know I would if I could
But all I have
are my blue jeans and my black t-shirt
And that’s just fine,
‘cause everyday you know I try
To make art not war,
let love reign and lead the world to say

It’s a beautiful day,
summer songs outside my window pane
And I don’t need my umbrella
‘cause I’ve already been through the rain
I can feel the sunshine on my face,
not a cloud in my personal sky
It’s a beautiful day, It’s a beautiful day

The light will shine in my perfect sky,
The morning sun will be yours and mine

And I’ll hold my breath and pray
It’s a beautiful day,
summer songs outside my window pane
And I don’t need my umbrella
‘cause I’ve already been through the rain
I can feel the sunshine on my face,
not a cloud in my personal sky
It’s a beautiful day, It’s a beautiful day,
It’s a beautiful day, It’s a beautiful day
