And so it begins...

My blog is titled Live well, laugh often and love much. I have been fond of this statement for a long time and I have realized that I should start living that way. Life is too short to be worried about who is doing what, who is talking about who, what people are wearing, what people other people have that I don't have, etc. I have started focusing on my family and let me tell you, it feels great. 

Hubby started a new job almost 3 months ago. (He was at the last one for 10 years) He travels quite a bit now which I am kind of getting used to. Let me explain, over the last 7 years we were together 24/7. Yes you read that right :) It was a tough transition at first, but we are doing well with it. I'm becoming that independent woman I used to be oh so long ago. Don't get me wrong, I miss him when he is gone. 

I have been blessed with 2 beautiful step-daughters who I love dearly. They have been my source of strength on numerous occasions. I will not be using their names in this blog, but I shall refer to them as Thing One and Thing Two, they would get a kick out of that. I thank God every single day for them. I remember growing up that I always said I wouldn't have any children of my own, which is funny because I never did. Maybe there was a reason that happened and I'm perfectly fine with that. Thing One and Thing Two are amazing. 

I decided today that I need to get back to Weight Watchers. My weight has gotten out of control and I am beyond ashamed. My poor body has been through so much over the past couple of years and my weight has just gotten worse. I am hoping that by attending meetings I can get some of this weight off. I find the meetings very powerful. It's nice to know that someone else is having the same struggles you are. Saturday morning at 8:30 I begin my journey, I did it once, I CAN DO IT AGAIN!!!!! 

There isn't much on the agenda tonight. I will picking up Thing One and Thing Two after work, making dinner, and doing homework. I pray that it's an easy tonight. I'm sure there will be some "chill out" time as well before we call it a night.
