Well this is it. No turning back. 2010 is here! I have lost three pounds so far and I am completely excited about it!!!
I am also very excited and nervous about school starting. We will see how that goes. I am very excited about FLORDIA which last night I found out I am going just me and Hayleigh and the rest of the family. Billy is going to stay home and take care of the animals. Roosters and dogs. I am very excited to go for sure! But we will have to see if Hayleigh's mom will say okay. But usually she doesn't have a problem with it.
We are a typical American Family. I figure I should let you all know that. Hayleigh's mom and I are actually very good friends. Her husband and my husband get along and we are all always there to support Hayleigh. We are one big family! Some people think it's odd and strange but I don't pay much attention. It's better for Hayleigh we are all on the same page and the rules flow wonderfully from one house to the other. I am Hayleigh's brother's godmother and my husband is his godfather. I know I know what your thinking. The ex wife asking the new wife to be the godparent of her child that's insane! Well not really. I can't have children of my own and I am lucky to have Hayleigh as such a big part of my life. And Connor will be too. Hayleigh loves her brother so much its so cute! But I am a very kind and openminded person.
Last night Hayleigh and I were watching the movie 'Enchanted' and as you all know that bad witch in the movie is the 'Wicked Stepmother' lol and the little girl in the movie struggles with the fact of having a stepmother. Hayleigh looked at me last night and said 'You're my wicked stepmother!' LOL we both laughed and I said 'Yep sure am!'

The Second Day
Well today is the second day of my challegne and with everything I am still considering myself with doing alright. Diet wise. I guess that's good. I cheated a bit last night and had some of Billy's chicken but I guess you'll have that.
This morning however was a bit rocky minus the diet. My Cocker Spaniel, Mr. Wilson decided to make a mess which then in return I stepped in and got mad. Screaming and yelling which then made Billy mad. Hayleigh stared in disbelief because I hardly ever get mad, ever or scream for that matter. But for some reason this morning my brain snapped and of course I feel guilty now as ever. But like I explained to my loving husband; I think it's the lack of fat and sugar my body is not taking in.
Then on to the office where of course since it is New Year's Eve EVE the world is either on vacation or has called in sick. Which therefore leaves little me. But I am doing my best to get through this day and into the new year where of course the challenges will begin to add up.

The Year for Big Changes
So I have decided this year is the year for changes. I am very happily married and have a wonderful life and a wonderful family. But something has felt empty for a while.So I have decided to start this blog to keep track of my progress.
This year I have made several resoultions. The first and formost being one that I am starting next week.
I am going back to college.
Granted I have only been out of college for two years seeing as how I am only 22 this shouldn't be a big deal but school is something that I love and I am pursuing a passion that I didn't think was possible for me. My husband is of course 100% behind me as he is with everything.
Second,
I have begun weight watchers, actually two days ago. And I must say for my lack of motivation and willpower I am doing very well. I haven't cheated yet. So I guess that is progress. I am not very much overweight by physcians standards and my husband tells me how perfect I am all the time. But I think I will feel better if I can succeed.
I think thats what this blog is going to be about. Sucess and what it takes to get there.
For me it's my husband, to show him how much I love him and that I can do this.
and my step-daughter Hayleigh who is 4 and who is our life. She lives with us and I have been in her life since she was 14 months old. I want her to be proud of me.
We live in the country in a very small town. Which I love and wouldn't trade for the world. In school most of my friends had big dreams. Dreams of the city, dreams of having big fancy houses and fancy things and labels. None of which I wanted. I was the one who dreamed of the nice home in the country and the regular family and the suv. All of which I have achieved. So I am putting my mind to this and it's going to happen. Trust me.
