Of coarse health is top on my list like most people. I've lost 16 lbs. but really need to loose about 20 lbs. more to get back to my "good weight."before kids. YIKES! Our family was blessed to receive a membership to a country club as a gift last year and our family has enjoyed spending time at the club whenever we can. It's been a few weeks since I've been able to go since I've been sick now for two weeks since Christmas. Thank God I'm finally on the mend and feeling better today. I felt like the entire house was shut down. It's hard enough when both kids are sick but when both parents are sick at the same time it's a nightmare. So glad we made it thru keeping my fingers crossed hoping we don't get sick again this season.
I've been doing lots of research on pinterest, youtube, organizing websites and blogs etc. on ways to organize the home. I found there are so many things I need to start organizing to make our home run much smoother. I guess I'm starting to realize I can't think of everything on my own I need to reach out to other Moms for ideas. I look forward to posting a blog about all the projects I hope to accomplish in 2013 around the house to help our family stay more organized and for me to not feel so overwhelmed.
Keeping in touch with family is so important to me. We live very far from our relatives and loved ones and sometimes it's hard to keep in touch. It's lonely sometimes and hard to be away from family. I'm looking for ways this year to try to keep in touch with our relatives and loved ones who live far away so we can always be a part of their lives and they a part of ours. It's so easy to get caught up in the daily craziness of life that you loose sight of what's important and that's family. So I'm hoping to work on that part of my life in 2013
I also have thought a lot about trying to find my purpose. Yes, I'm a Mom, wife, daughter, friend etc. but there are a lot more layers to me as woman. Lately I've been really trying to search for a way for me to have an outlet that will allow me to grow more as women. Whether that be volunteering my time, joining a group, or going back to doing some of my work in TV, Radio, public relations, music etc. not sure. I hope to post a blog about this part of my life and hopefully I'll be able to find what I'm searching for to help complete me.
Again it's hard to believe 2013 is here. I just pray for our family to remain healthy, happy and filled with joy this coming year.
