The New Me..... Please

So it has been forever since I have even attempted blogging, but I am going to give it a go again in the hopes that it will be a way to keep myself motivated...
I need to transform my life and so I need to have a place to vent, and explain, and just be able to say what I want to say and also track my progress (and there better be progress!).

Here is what I want to change in my life:

~ My Physical Appearance
  • I need to lose about 100 lbs to be considered healthy
  • I want to get in shape so I can start running
  • I want to feel good about me!

~ Finances
  • Finding a full-time consistent job (working in a field I love)
  • Taking care of regular monthly bills and keeping them up-to-date
  • Begin clearing up some of the large amounts of debt Ryan and I have accumulated

~ Family & Home
  • I want the time I spend with my children to be quality time!
  • Patience! I need this in a bad way, some days more than others
  • I would love to be able to say that my husband and I are in a romantic, loving marriage and get along fantastically (at least the majority of the time)
  • I would also like to get my house / life more organized so that we are not so chaotic all of the time
  • I would like to find a way to help my daughter manage her ADHD so that her school and social life are successful
  • I also want to grow closer to my God each day and learn to trust Him in every aspect of my life (in short, I need to learn how to let go)

So with all of that said, I now need to think of how I am going to accomplish all of this and will get back to you. This blog will become my way of keeping myself accountable and hopefully encouraging and motivating myself.
