I haven't told anyone about this yet, but it falls in line with my project for reinventing myself and my life this summer.
I have begun working on a project I call "A Year In Dreams". I even have the domain for it and want to build a really fun and interesting website for it. I am not a web builder so that has been a challenge. I am hoping to either learn it myself or find someone who can help me build a really cool site for this.
A Year In Dreams is based on the concept that when you start putting your dreams out there, and start really working and praying and speaking positive affirmations, miracles begin to happen.
You know how a vision board works? You put clippings or statements about things that you want to have or goals you want to attain and the ability to actually SEE your vision everyday helps to keep it foremost in your mind. It helps you to focus and helps your mind to continually work on ways to make those things happen.
Well, that is what I want the website to be.....a web-based vision board. Eventually I want it to become a place for others to make their own Web Vision Boards and interact with people around the world about their dreams and goals, about their frustrations or obstacles to their dreams and receive encouragement or advice on how to make their vision a reality!
NOW...the REAL meat of the idea! A YEAR IN DREAMS is all about putting your dreams out there and checking off as many dreams as possible in one year.
Dreams can be ANYTHING you want to accomplish, whether it be getting a new washer or dryer, or a new car, or learning how to salsa dance, or losing weight. Maybe you want to donate time to a charity or bring someone to salvation. Maybe you want to get organized or redecorate your home. Maybe you want to learn to forgive someone or let go of an old hurt.
Anything. It's about having a time frame, a sense of urgency about accomplishing things. It's about focusing and refocusing, adjusting and learning, failing and getting up over and over again. But through it all, your vision board guides you, encourages you, inspires you to work through the pain, the fatigue, the negative thoughts that have been keeping you from these things in the past.
So, Keep checking back . "Making Over Melanie", getting healthy and fit and reclaiming or enhancing the beauty that God gave me, is just one part of my Year In Dreams project.....

When will it end?!
Another migraine coming on!.....
Probably from being on the computer over the last couple of days. But I know stress and sinus problems are the main culprits.
I had a doozy of a migraine the first night in Biloxi, which I forgot to mention. I was throwing up and miserable!
I just want to go hide under a rock right now but I can't. I have two small children. They are both laying down right now, for a late nap, but I couldn't even take solace in a nap, my head hurts so bad. I took some ibuprofin as my neck muscles feel tight as steel. Maybe I can head this off before it gets too bad?.......
I haven't eaten very well today so maybe that is part of the problem too. I will try ot get a well rounded meal tonight with some protein in it for sure. ALthough, the thought of food makes me ill right now! :(
I need to get some housework done, and I will, but I cannot even express how much just bending over to pick up toys off the floor pains me when my head hurts like this!
UUUUGGGGHHHH! Off to work I go........Blog Ya Later!
