My life as a wife, mother and business woman

I have contemplated many aspects of my life and it's time to own one of them. I really am a business MOM. Today I have actually decided to "let it go" and accept the fact that what I have to contribute to the companies that my husband and I own are of value.

Kyle has been such an inspiration to me and such a great help meet in helping me accomplish goals. I always tell him I am the perfect partner for him. But that is another blog for another time. This is about me.

I have recently closed on the refinance of Raindance. It consists of a dry cleaners, full Laundromat, and 7 car washes, a radio station rents part of one building and I have another 3200 square feet on the main street that is prime real estate for another business.

Kyle has been there with me right by my side. He always says that his ideas become reality when I am with him. I am a great executer and I think that's why we make a good team.

But I want you to know what my day consists of, because I believe any woman, wife and mother can contribute to there home the way they want to and I believe you can do it all. Maybe not ALL at the same time but you can do it all.

6:30 am--arise and shine--put my whites in the dryer because I ran out of underwear
6:30-6:45 am--make lunches, oatmeal for hubby & early morning seminary daughter.
6:45--shower
7:00--get other 5 children up and ready for school
7:45--out the door with all 5..

I have been to Raindance and talked to the employees, grabbed bank deposit, been to walmart to get youngest son a new pair of shoes, because his old one's have a hole in the toe, purchased Frozen CD because I love listening to my kids sing these songs all day. And the "Let it Go" song inspires me to keep moving forward. Even though I want to cry every time it plays because I often feel very trapped in my own mind.

8;40--dropped youngest babies to school
8:55--made myself some oatmeal and traded laundry so that my oldest doesn't have a ton of clothes to wash when she gets home from school.

Tuesdays are actually my busiest days. I conquer meetings, writing systems for my business, 3 piano lessons, bowling and bowling party, Blue & gold is tonight, and Ammon starts wrestingling. This all happens between 4-8 tonight.

And I really enjoy every bit of it. Right now Kyle has asked me to right a systems for Raindance so that eventually I can be replaced. Replaced is a good thing, it means I have created a model for my business and if I wanted to drop ship it anywhere in the country I have a systems in place to do it. I am doing this because I would like to expand. I think I have a great product, and a great vision of how these businesses work together.

Don't let this fool you that it is hard at times to separate business and personal. Kyle and I find ourselves up late at night strategizing and he reads lots of books and then my idea juices get flowing and before you know it I have created myself a long list for the next day. But I love it because it is what drives our marriage. Kyle needs to have the ability to fly. He is so sparatic and so detail oriented that with me beside him his ideas get bigger and really get executed. He is the reason my left side of my brain works. :)

Anyway, that is my day today. And I'm sure it will intail a few tears, a few heart felt prayers because in the end I know my Heavenly Father has entrusted me with a lot in life. And I try really hard to be grateful and to always remember the lessons he has allowed me to learn.

Love to all and WOMEN go be What YOU were MADE to DO......AND only YOU KNOW WHAT that is....
