Wow. I created this blog a while ago, but now need to really start writing. I had another blog in the past but really didn't keep up on it. My goal is to journal here at least a few times a week. I've been so inspired in reading so many other blogs out there. Some of these women that I don't know IRL have totally inspired me. Whether it be in goals they set for themselves, their families, their faith, whatever. I hope to be like some of them some day. It all started by reading a friend of mine's blog, http://www.welcometothesnug.blogspot.com/. I 've know Colleen since our first year at Saint Mary's College in Notre Dame, Indiana. And found reading her blog addicting! :) And through her blog found MckMama's blog (www.mckmama.com) and have been pulled along her story of family and the most unbelivable FAITH that I hope to have! God Bless STELLAN! :)
Things have been going good for me lately. And I'm kinda shocked. Kinda waiting for the other shoe to fall you know? Yes, I have a good job, the pay's not the greatest (who's is?:) But I work with some of the greatest guys! :) And to have a job in today's economy I feel very lucky.
I've also actually started to really lose weight for the first time! :) I've lost about 30 pounds so far, and am about to break the 200's for the first time and kiss the 200's goodbye!!! :) SO excited about that.
I'm heading to Chicago on Thursday night to help out my parents. Their watching my brother's 3 kids from tomorrow until Sunday nite. I'm taking Friday off to help them! :) That'll be alot of fun.
My next trip is to see my sweet precious Kiera in New York. It KILLS me that she (and my sister) live so far away. But I'm going for Kiera's 5th birthday so that will be a lot of fun.
And, I've joined Angie Smith's (http://www.audreycaroline.blogspot.com/) book club, (http://www.thebloombookclub.blogspot.com/) so that's exciting. Just got notification that I've been lucky enough to receive one of the free books for that. That really helps out and I can't wait until I can help others receive books for free! Anyway...thatnks for listening and reading this far...GOD BLESS!!!!
