I've had a little fun today and created Rocket Dog. He is new on the store. Come check him out at http://www.just0indesign.com/store.html#.VLxfEMZD9PI

Just a quick note. I have removed the skeleton image from the store, but there are some new items up, including more of the goldfish in the tropical fish section. I think the goldfish is my personal favorite. Come take a look and see.

The Idea of creative visualization is to think about an end goal, or something that you want in life and keep it there until it comes to reality. I've been working on this for a while now. Sometimes it's not the easiest thing to do, because I need to block out the rest of the world for a while every day in order to imagine the end goal in my head and really believe it will happen. 

A good example of me being able to do this is the house that Peter and I are living in right now. Almost every day after we found this house I thought about it. Not only did I put the image of it into my mind, but I imagined myself living here. I imaged changing the yard to the way I wanted it. I imagined driving up to the house every day after work. I did all the day to day things I needed to do in my head, but in my mind I was already doing them here. And now that I live here I'm starting to imagine home improvements that need to be done, and I keep on going with what I want. It's amazing how things come together the way that they need to.

I'm a strong believer that what you sent out into the universe comes back to you. In other words, if you send out positive thoughts and ideas, that is what you will get back. If you send out negative thoughts and ideas, you will get negativity back. So, this year lets try our best to send out positive thoughts and ideas. Lets keep our end goals in mind, and lets get what we want out of life.

Life is supposed to be happy, and we can choose to make it that way. Be thankful every day for what we have. Send those thoughts out, and we will get that back.

This weekend was good. We weren't able to get everything done that we wanted to, but we did go to a builders show at the Convention Center, and we went to Ikea and got a media cabinet with money that we got from my parents for Christmas. Thank you Mom and Dad! Also, I was able to get some much needed sleep. I have had a lot on my mind lately with planning for our new roof and solar panels we are getting installed. We are all set for the project to start, and the roof will be installed either late this week, or the following week.

Well, it is a start of a new year, and I know that 2015 will be great. We have a lot of projects planned for this year. After the roof, we will be painting the house, and working on improving the yard. Eventually we are going to have a water feature in the front and a Koi pond in the back. I can't wait. I really missed having those features from when we lived in our fairview house. There is something about the sound of water that instantly calms you. It really makes a difference. Also, at this house it will be even better because we don't have the air traffic that we had in Fairview. We are really going to have a tranquil little oasis here. Getting a gas fireplace will also be a goal for 2015. That will be a big expense, but with the right planning we will be able to do it. When we have the solar panels done they are going to remove a large blue spruce tree in the front of the house, and we have decided to have them leave some of the wood behind. We are going to use one of the logs for our mantle. I think that will add some really nice character to our living room. I just love the idea. It would seem like such a waste to just give away all of that wood. We might even use some more of the wood for other projects, but we are not sure yet. Send out good vibes for a lot of sales on my web site. We will need it.

Happy New Year to everyone. I wish everyone has a great year, and I can't wait to have some fun with everyone this year.
