CHECK!
I wanted to be making some sort of difference in people's lives on a daily basis... CHECK!
I wanted to be able to enjoy a marriage with the love of my life with ALL cards on the table... CHECK!
Last, but never least, I wanted to have the certainty that life, no matter how good or how bad, is ALWAYS worth living and fighting for... CHECK!
I have been very blessed in my life and am very pleased with my bucket list thus far. Many people have to be thanked that have supported me on a constant basis and put up with my skewed priorities; as well as my creator who lights my way on a large scale. So thank you Lord for all that I have and all that you allow me to be. And thank you David... for being my everything and my forever... <3
I try to love with no limits. I thrive on trying to help with no boundaries and hope that my children see how easy it really is to be that way. Therefor, I intend to live life giving Him Glory and enjoying all the days of my life as if they were my last.
What does THIS mean to you?! Lol... Well, you no longer have to know what I eat everyday!!! =D
This log has been a success and has brought me to many finish lines and I hope that you will ALL realize that YOU can do it to! Find your challenge... short term, hard, long term, easy or simply ONE STEP AT A TIME!!
My house is far from perfect. It needs a whole lot of attention actually... But I concentrate more on enjoying my six kids, my husband, my me time and the rest of my family and friends!! I know that it's not always easy and finding the balance is NOT ever spot on... But I also know that it's been worth it. Now that a few items are taken off my list... here is a brief summary of my new list:
Maintaining the strong relationship that we've worked so long and hard for with my baby!
Making more time for my amazing and beautiful kids!
Keeping unwanted weight OFF!
Strengthening and toning this ONE body I've been given!
Reorganizing my house!! (At least 3 rooms of it..)
Being a more spiritual role model for my family! (Because I DO believe that nothing is even possible without our higher power)
I'll still be as motivational as I can be... and hope that it helps you to stay on track or FIND your track...
As for the email list. Be warned... It is getting changed in the next few days, so please, feel free to keep logging on once you no longer receive the email updates. =)
