Rewriting my trip to peru in 2012..

 January 2012: "I'm home from peru! It was amazing. I wish we (my mom and I went together) were about to do more! (I do want to go back for more still) It is so beautiful here in cusco, peru! Way more than I expected! The mountains and hills are so green. The cathedrals are gorgeous. We are (mom and I) are in a tour group of 14 0r 15. All of us are leaving tomorrow morning at 7:30 to go to the sacred valley and Tuesday we start the hike up to MACCHU PICCHU! I am SO excited. This is way better than I could have imagined! Mom and I went through the Santo Domingo cathedral and it was great to see. Spain built over an incan temple, and you can tell which was built by the incans and which parts were built by Spain. There are so many stray dogs roaming around. I would totally take half them home with me if I could! It's also hard for me NOT to touch them!it really is! Our tour started yesterday. We went to the sacred valley yesterday and everything was so beautiful. We saw quite

I have no memory of actually writing this down!

 I've always had these "life goals" to try and practice daily, and I feel like i stuck to this one for a while, got out of the habit, and I'm trying to do better, but I wrote this "goal" down 11 and a half years ago, and it's still applicable. I wrote, "I came to the realization the other day. I cash really attest a person's life in a positive way. I can set and be a great example for so many people. I can really do so much in someone's life (good or bad). I can be an example someone NEVER had. The quote I find that really lifted me up (because I realized, well, not too many people did this for me), could be reversed and make it real for someone else. I think I'd get just as much as I receive. "You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on a life" and "be nice to people on the way up, you may need them on the way down." I ended with, 'that is so true! I love whoever reads this!'  H

#lifeupdate and LOOK, I DO wear the #makeup I sell! Hah hah! I recently made the decision to leave my #fulltimejob, WITH NO BACKUP PLAN. I do not recommend this course of action, but my #mentalhealth and #physicalhealth needed a reset despite no backup plan. 100% worth it. I've applied to schools in hopes to go after something I've always wanted to do (help make follow through on this once guys). I also have had to rely heavily on me #working with #Avon. I have to rely on #wordofmouth, me pushing myself to get out there and seek #help and #support when needed. I've also been working on my #blog as well. I want this #change, but I couldn't and wouldn't be able to do this without the support my #family, #friends, AND YOU GUYS.  This was long winded, I know, but I appreciate you guys!  #shop, #share, #read all here: http://go.youravon.com/3n6kbw http://go.youravon.com/3n6kbx

Do the hard family history work.

I  cannot reccomend family history enough you guys. I know it can be really hard if your family didn't or doesn't have the resources to keep track of things. Especially if there's a genocide, deep family secrets (more often than you think), slavery, and so much more. But I say, start with you. And just you. Write your memories down. I got 2 paragraphs into my great grandma's story, and surprised myself by getting emotional. Aren't grandma's supposed to live forever? 😭😭 once again, this doesn't apply to everyone. I think I'm finally processing the fact I didn't get to go to my grandma's funeral due to covid-19 this year. Family history is more than just health reasons. You get stories, and deeper understanding on why your family was the way your family was. Quirks, strengths, all of it. Start bettering yourself for future generations (if you so choose to have kids) or friends kids. Write your story out people. Mistakes, ups, downs, achievements,

Goals of 2020

I have yet to write a post this year, and it's almost March! I think it would be a good time to put out my goals of this year, and with my birthday in a week, I figured this would be a good time to do it! Goals of 2020 (but in no means in order, and I will be ok if it doesn't happen this year. I am putting it out in the world so it CAN happen!) SAVE MONEY! travel to a place I have been (affordable). Write in this blog MORE. I need to get my experiences out there. GET HEALTHIER THROUGH DIET. Join my journey as I hope to write and document it. Set up an Avon get together, and hopefully make that part successful. Sign up for Dog grooming seminars. GO BACK TO SCHOOL. Relearn an instrument.  Will this all happen this year? Maybe not, but one little baby step at a time, and I am sure I will get there!  xoxo, Hannah's Blog
