It's Time To Make A Change

Good Monday Morning!

Many times in my life I have decided to make some changes...many times I start with that change for a week or so and then go back to previous habits. Today I'm starting new...starting over. It's time to put the past behind me and go forward. Being completely honest with myself, I've let things creep back into my life that are not healthy habits. I have allowed the things I value to slip...which is ME! Today is refocus day...refocusing my life on living a longer, healthier life! This isn't just about going on a diet...there is DIE in the word for a reason! This is about making changes...and I'm not just talking about FOOD! This summer will be about creating a lifestyle that I want and desire, no more excuses!

Quiet Time--I have let my quiet time slip...the time I used to make sure nothing kept me from. I have let Facebook, Twitter, email, etc creep into my morning time instead of safe guarding the first 30 minutes or so for my quiet time with God. This summer I will put this time back into my life, diving into my relationship with my Lord and Savior. Only He will give me the strength I need to overcome some obstacles in front of me. I have been struggling again with having the miscarriage and having a strong desire for having children...and life not being fair! How come I keep seeing so many people pregnant, but I'm not...well only God can help me work through this!

Health--I have let myself make excuses as my stress level rose about mid-year at school. This HAS to change. So today is Day 1 back on plan. This time I WILL complete the program, going through the Habits of Health curriculum ad reaching goal weight. I have to take care of me to someday be able to take care of babies...It's time to choose the choices that follow the path towards what I truly want and desire. This is about ME...not anyone else! Not TJ, friends, family, etc. But ME! What do I desire to do with my life...first is to be able to LIVE! To live, I need a vessel that will last...that means health.

These are just two areas that I'm focusing on to begin with! TJ and I are also in the process of becoming licensed foster parents! These kids will need me to be the best mom I can be...

Ready.....Set....GO!!!!!
