Winter Wonder Land

It's officially winter! I again ask myself the same question I always do when we get the first snowfall, "Why do I live here?" Like for example this morning, -27 degrees with windchill. Who wants to go out in weather like that for the next 4 months. Oh well, so off to work I went after bundling up Miss K in her jacket, hat and bulky mittens. Oh how she screams when we try and strap her into her car seat.

However, as I got into my vehicle and started the trek to work, it appeared that God was speaking to me that today was going to be a better day. A "Sun Dog." It was beautiful. It was a small reminder of the attitude check I needed to make sure that today was going to be the best day possible. The "Sun Dog" warmed my heart and gave me that extra little push that I needed and the motivation.

So here I am enjoying this day, and reminding myself to make each day the best day it can be.

With that in mind, join me tonight at the Y, which is a great night for Spin/Cycling. I promise a great workout that will warm you from top to bottom. 50 minutes of heart pumping, sweat pumping music. A great way to end your day, that started out with negative temperatures!
"Sun Dog" on my way to work!

I've Got This

I've been silent for quite some time from this blog. At times I don't always know what to say and don't always want to have negative things going on to write about. However, at the same time I am so tired of having to be fake and being "OK" all the time. I'm not perfect, and I'm doing better. Some days are better than others and some days are even great. I'm so happy at where I am at these days and I am feeling so accomplished for so many things. At the same time, there are days where I feel like I'm thrown back and have to face everything head on all over again. I'm learning that my former extended family doesn't belong to me any more, especially now that there is another girl in A's life. I need to allow for her and A and his family to start their own memories and start developing whatever relationship is going to happen. I absolutely adore them and will always care about them. Seeing pictures of the lake, and the pontoon makes me m...

Infertility

So once again I attempt to start my blog on weight loss. However, I've entered a new chapter in my life. Babies. Well not quite yet, but we'll get there. Here's some history..... I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March of 2010, only 3 months after getting married. I had a laparoscopy and had 5-6 different areas. I continued treatment with birth control overlapping each month and when that didn't seem to help the symptoms I started on Lupron. For those of you that are familiar with this product you can attest to its wonderfulness as well as its downfalls. The Lupron put my body into menopause at the age of 24 :) Fun Fun fun!!!! On the first round of shots I did not have a hormone replacement pill which I wish I would have. I had shots every month for 3 months then took a break. In June I had a 3 month dose of Lupron again. The pain continued and I had a second laparoscopy with a tubular dye study in September, and here we are. Our game plan...... My OB/GYN wants to t...

True Happiness

If I actually had real followers on here I might get some feedback on what truly makes you happy? Think about it......how many people can honestly say they are TRULY happy. And if you say, "Yes" I want to know your secret. Everyone has a bad day or two or a shitty situation that they wished they hadn't had to go through. But I do believe there are really, actual happy people out there, And I used to be one of them, Or maybe I was just young and naive at the time as well. The paths we take, the experiences we make, and the people we meet will all contribute to happiness. But I also think that there are too many people out there who aren't happy but aren't willing to take the steps to find out what it is that is making them unhappy and then make the change. For my instance, I have been jumping from job to job thinking that I was missing out on utilizing my creativity that I love so much.  I didn't like the daily task of data entry and poor work environment...
