Promise

I promised I would blog more--so here is a blog about nothing at all, just about my promise to blog more. The End.

Laptopin' It!

So I've had my laptop for a little while now and for some reason (I could list all the reasons, but I will save you the agony)but anyhow, for some reason, I have not taking the chance to blog it out. So here I am with my lovely red laptop clicking a way quietly as SpongeBob happily chirps away in the background.

What is it about a laptop that just demands a blog be written?

I have been very lacks at blogging lately-I'm sure it has been more time than I would really like to admit (if anyone happens to see the months of June, July, August and/or September laying around, could you please send them my regards and tell them that I miss them dearly.)

The months have slipped by so very quickly--It seems like everything in our lives have taken a turn in an unknown direction--(some days I'm not sure if we took the right road, however, it is that path that I am on and I guess I just have to keep going until the correct turn off comes along.) In June, I started working outside of the home after 4 wonderful years of having my in-home daycare. The next several months are a complete blur and whirl--filled with, but not limited to--learning/relearning and new/old job--sitting with the hubs as he waited to under go surgery and then sitting with all the "what-if's" as he was put under while an amazing doctor gave us hope of restored vision (I think loved ones should be able to have meds to help them through surgery)--Squeezing in time with the kids and friends--driving to countless dr's appointments, scout meetings, and 100's of other misc. errands--mountains of laundry, fixing thing I thought I would never have to fix and I may even gotten a chance to take a breath every now and then.

Everyday is a new day that is just waiting to be discovered--I just wish that every once in a while, we did not have to discover so much (or that would could discover gold in our back yard or something else equally exciting)

In all the adventures of summer, I have seem to have lost my train of thought and my motivation to take care of myself. I have let my self go, abandoned all my goals of become a goddess and if I don't start paying attention to my needs I'm going to end up weighing more at the end of the year than I did in the beginning of it. That is something I can not let be.

I am recommitting myself to myself (Mayhaps I will write my own vows) and making some changes. I have participated in a few walk/runs events and have a couple more coming up--so I have some motivation to get moving for some reason a free t-shirt with registration just gets me moving. I'm trying to remember that I need to have fun with my workout and not think of them so much as a job that I need to do. It may be called a workout but I need to take it less seriously. I have my MP3 play loaded with some fun fun fun stuff (Glee anyone?)

In wrapping up--there is a trail that I'll be hiking--just to reach my goal--I only have to weigh less at the end of the year than I did in the beginning. I can do that.
