The past few days and weeks have been stressful for me because husband (let's call him Mr. T) working many extra hours and some unresolved business issues (let's call them BH) back in Virginia. Yet I'm profoundly happy. Happy with our new city, happy in our house and most of all happy with my beautiful family. I've been doing some soul searching as a result of the aforementioned stresses and reminding myself that I can do pretty much anything I put my mind to.
Everything always works out. Such an obvious thought but I must remind myself of it daily. Just how it works out, though, is up to me. In August 2010 when I joined Weight Watchers it was Step 1 of me taking control of my life and how things "work out". I didn't want to be unhealthy and pass along unhealthy habits to my kids. Nearly 2 years later I feel pretty good about my progress and even more passionate about health - my own, my family, and our nation. You'll hear me talk about this over and over. I am so excited Mrs. Obama has taken on the issue and there is so much to be done.
So now I'm on to Step 2 of taking control of my life: figuring out what makes me happy. Specifically. Finding that which I love doing and somehow finding a way to get paid for it. I'm currently working on making my living environment a place that I love and journaling. Action and reflection. Amazing how much motivation I get from both. The more I do, the more I'm able to do.
Sending Light and Love, Jen
