Day Two . . .

Cella chocolate covered cherries. Delicious. Moving on. . .

I ate horribly today. Not exactly the best start to my "better body." Oh well. . . I'll start tomorrow. Maybe.

I was in Oklahoma today for the last of my family Christmas'. It was nice, but I'm exhausted. Next weekend I'm headed up north to spend New Year's Eve with my guy, and maybe his family. I'm really excited to spend more time with them, they seem like a lot of fun.

In my first blog, I forgot to mention another life changing event that will happen this year. I am going through RCIS. Or. . . for my non-religious readers. "Catholic Religious Training!" Yeah. . . big step for me. I'm really excited about it though. I am not exactly what one would call a super religious person, but i'm trying.

I got the movie 500 Days of Summer, for Christmas. If you haven't seen it. . . you must. Really.

Tired. That's really the only word going from my brain to my fingertips at the moment. I go back to work tomorrow.

. . . (bored face)

I'm hoping for a chill week. Well at least until Thursday. Then it's party time with the greatest guy ever!! :-)

Till then. . .



Day One

I decided last week that 2010 will most likely be my most successful year. Not financially, but historically. So here we go, day one, of 365. In the year 2010, I plan to graduate college, move OUT of my parents house, (ok, this one may end up happening in 2011, considering I don't actually graduate until December), lose 20 lbs, and simply move on.

I divorced last year after an 11 year marriage. (10 years together, and one separated) I have 3 awesome daughters who have been ridiculously amazing through all of this. So here I am, a divorced 31 year old single mother of 3. I can do this right? I never imagined in a million years that this was where my life would take me, but it has, and i'm along for the ride.

Tonight, I went to a gay bar with a friend from high school. I prefer this, mainly because they're usually cleaner. Plus, if a man walks up to you and says, "girl that's a kick ass shirt," he really just means that I have a kick ass shirt. It was great to see "Mark."

I've started dating again. It's not near as easy as it was when I was younger. Men want the "one thing" even more than they did before. I had really given up hope. That "yucky love stuff" that you see in the movies doesn't really exist. I mean come one. . . "You complete me?" PLEASE! Guys don't really come up with that stuff on their own. Then one day in June of last year, I met someone. Someone who would prove to me that I am wrong. Way wrong! He sent me flowers one day . . . " . . . you should receive these exactly one month since I've last seen you." *sigh* Holy crap! Could I have really found "that guy?" Well, there's so much more, but I'll leave that for the boring days where I really don't have much to talk about.

365 days to change my life. It sounds like a lot. . . but it's not. I have to get busy. 2 more semesters of school, a possible job change, and a hopeful body change. The one thing I know as I fall asleep tonight though, I have amazing people along for the ride.

Tomorrow, Oklahoma City to visit family. Pray for me. . .

Till then. . .
