2008 New Beginnings

Hello Hello Hello My Dear friend the blogger. I have been away for sometime. My life got out of hand and spiraled out of control. I have gain almost all of my weight back due to stress and I quit writing what I ate down and I quit working out and going to the gym.

On with the good stuff. In the crazy life I had been living. I took a very hard look at myself. I went on a cruise and I slowed waaaaay down at work. I lost a dear friend on her own choice but I have gained more friends in a past few months time. I had to take a long look at my destructive patterns and realized some friends are just not good to be around. Especially negative persons who can't see the truth. I know all to well because i have been that person in my past. I had to look at my part in all my relationships and discovered I had some healthy ones that I did not socialize with and then I had some unhealthy ones that I socialized way toooo much. Its funny cause she cut our friendship off and I grown from it. Its weird how things like that work. I wish her only the best.

I had the best Christmas ever. My husband and I have grown so close together in the past few months. I feel at peace and its crazy. All my friends and family's life are chaotic and mine is the best it ever has been.

So I have been talking to soooo many persons about joining weight watchers and I finally did it. I am so excited to get my eating under control. I thought if I joined I failed and I did not want to be one of them. Ha just like my alcoholic thinking. I am soooo stubborn. I am starting today a walking regiment and so it begins. My husband is doing this along with me. He is not going to meetings but we are going on walks together and eating healthy. No sugar for awhile in our house. It does help that my son said that he would much rather eat an orange over a little debbie anytime.

At work I have been getting organized and putting plans in place to get all projects completed. I am starting again a dream weaver class and I am building a website for the tech department. In the Summer I am attending college to get my BA in Computer Information Systems and Minoring in Web Design. I contact MSU and they have scholarships to help with plus I believe my work is following thru with reimbursements so this is a very doable thing. I am so excited. I was so excited I wanted to start this Spring and I could, but I don't want to over do it. So i have come up with a time frame.
