blogging is confusing

I can't tell if I have 2 separate blog profiles or just 2 different pictures. They both seem connected but when I follow one blog with the one, it doesn't show up on my main profile *le sigh* Today is just destined to be confusing..it's my man's 25th birthday, last night he was being overly rude so I left him to himself but when I called him to wish him a happy birthday this morning (he left for work before I woke up) he said "thanks, k bye" and that was it. It was frustrating, I still plan on making him a nice dinner but I wonder if I should continue with my plan to miss dance class, because if he doesn't want to be in a good mood, I don't want to stick around. Am I being wrong? I try my best to be a good partner but I can't feel good about sticking around someone when they are negative, and he doesn't want to hear me when I try to explain that...anyone know a good therapist? ha

the reason I finally got a blog going..

I really have been wanting to start a blog for a couple weeks now, but it was this fantastic summer contest run by I Heart! that Dance that really gave me a kick in the bum to get it going. If you are a dancer, or know someone that dances you should definitely check out their stuff, it is fantastic! And if you love it as much as me you will be all over this new contest they have going (just like me ;-} ) check it out http://www.iheartthatdance.com/contests/contests.html

Positive thinking

Breaking in my blogging skills, this is something I've been thinking about doing for awhile because my sons give me such a different perspective on life, sometimes it's a little too much for my brain to handle, hopefully writing it out will help with that. So the title of this blog is positive thinking, something that has been ingrained into my mind since I was young, I don't know if I attribute this more to my mom or my martial arts training, but they both definitely get credit. In martial arts we called it "look for the good", we said it every day in class, so it has stuck with me, and I'm glad. My man (more than a boyfriend, less than a husband :-/ maybe that will change, maybe not) doesn't have a positive outlook on life, he looks for the negative, and I don't understand why he does that to himself. Being a positive thinker is good for you, good for your inner self and your mind, when you look for the good you see things in a better light and even when something bad happens it allows you to stay calm and eases the stress. My 2 year old is a perfect example of this, he has a very strong personality and it can be difficult to control him or make him happy but it makes me so proud that even as young as he is he has the mindset that when he has a goal he must achieve it. I used to think "he doesn't understand the meaning of 'no'" but one day it clicked into my head "he doesn't take 'no' for an answer", maybe not the best idea for a 2 year old, but positive in any case; it made me smile because I know that once he is older he will have that same drive that he does now, that he'll want to meet his goals, and won't take no for an answer because he knows what he wants. I am a strong believer in looking for the good, I do it in everyday situations, I do it when I meet new people, and I do it when bad stuff happens; I believe that it is one of my best qualities, because it takes a strong person to be positive when there are so many negative things in the world...
