Reset, Focus, & Accomplish

You know those goals set but some how they never get accomplished?

Well, running a half marathon has been a goal of mine at least 3 times in my life but never accomplished.
I get super excited, tell my friends and family, buy new running gear, find a race, start training, but
for some reason or another I always find an excuse as to why I cant/don't want to finish it.
Does this sound like you? Have you ever set a goal multiple times and never accomplished it? Well my friends you are not alone.

Whether you want to run a race, eat healthier for the new year, start your own business, or simply wash your car (yes, washing my car has been a goal of mine for over 2 weeks now :) Now is the time to do something that you have been saying you're going to do! That's right, NOW is the time.

A quote once read, "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments".

Discipline training that corrects, molds, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character


Interesting.


Now is the time to set and accomplish that thing you've been wanting to do. Now is the time to regroup and try again. Now is the time!


So here is to take 4 of half marathon training and race.

Discipline, this time I will master you!


Good luck to all you other goal setter/breakers, just remember you can always try again :)

Finding A Cheap Flight

Mike and I are budget flight finders to the max!

One year we wanted to go home for Christmas so bad but couldn't afford the flight so we
 bided on Price line for 47 consecutive days until we finally won two cheap tickets. I personally
 feel that they were so sick of us biding that they finally just threw in the towel and gave us a
 killer deal (this has happened on more than one occasion). And in case you were wondering
 what our killer deal was, it was a round tip ticket from Honolulu HI to Salt Lake City UT for $235!

The key was patience, persistence, and date flexibility.

So you want to travel, go on a trip or just fly somewhere to visit a friend?
Here are a couple of tips that can help you find the cheapest flights around.

1. The historically cheapest days to fly on are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, so if
you can book your trip from a Thursday to the following Tuesday do it and you will
save mega bucks.

2. Go to the different airlines websites (ex. delta.com), put in the flight information and
 look at their monthly flight schedule, find the cheapest days they fly, then go to priceline
 and bid on those days.

3. Priceline   Yes, I am a priceline junkie. I will bid for days, weeks, and months until they
 finally give me the flight I want. The one thing to keep in mind with biding is that you
 must be flexible :)

4. Sky Scanner Another one of my favorites

Good luck my traveling friends and safe travels!

Family Night at the Ice Roller Rink


Aggression, body checks, and fast action equal a night of fun entertainment

For those of you who have attended an ice hockey game before, roller hockey is just the same,
minus the ice.
It blew me away with how quickly they could get from one end of the rink to the other,
the lightning speed they would fire the puck,
and the amount of force they would use when checking someone of the opposite team.

There was one fight.
Two players, followed by team mates, went at it.
I have to admit I was kinda excited about it.
What's hockey with out a fight?


A shot almost made by our friend, Franco.
