A Decade Passed

12/31/2019 commemorates the end of a big decade for me, and I’m sure for you too.  Here are the benchmarks I’ll share, some for the first time:
☑️Watched my babies become adults.
​☑️Started and finished a full, Japanese style body suit tattoo. 
☑️Rescued two dogs. 
☑️Bought a house. 
☑️Stopped living for the approval of others, chiefly my Pops. 
☑️Watched my marriage go from failing to flourishing. I fought. He fought. We both prayed. And it worked. 
☑️Cheered as my husband become sober- so sober. 
☑️Opened and closed a 6 year long Master Trainer career-and with that gained incredible professional experience beyond anything a university could have provided -and I picked up a few best friends across the map.
☑️Was featured in some pretty cool videos. 
☑️Almost became Inked Magazine Cover Girl, but lost at the top 10. 
☑️Built a successful at home supplement and online fitness business. 
☑️ Became a lululemon Ambassador.
☑️Started running the largest fitness program in Eugene, OR
☑️Got a passport and put a few stamps in it.
☑️Sat with my best friend and held her hand when her husband died. Learned that saying nothing was the best thing to say. 

In my next decade I want to:

• Take more naps. 
• Watch my kids fall in love, and maybe start their own families. 
• Read fewer books about business and personal development and more novels. 
• Have more sex. 
• Do more yoga. 
• Pet the animals all the time
