This was a fantastic day. It was gorgeous outside, and our daughter decided she wanted to go fishing. George and I both had the day off, so we did. 

We went to Dunkin Donuts, which I love. We goofed off in the store while gathering fishing supplies and licenses. We relaxed and talked and each learned a little when we got to the fishing pond. No fish were caught, and the kiddo lost her pole to the murky depths. That didn't matter one iota to us. 

Days like this used to be very few and far in between. They are becoming more regular. After a few stressful nights at work, I just wanted to relax, laugh, talk, goof, and enjoy the entirety of the day. At one point, I just looked up at the tree line and sky and closed my eyes to take in the breeze and sounds. 

I sit here now writing this as I wait for him to return so we can venture out for a leisurely walk. I am finally starting to TRULY, no question or hesitation, enjoy life. The bad no longer outweighs the good. In fact, the good is whooping the bad's ass!

Peace out 
 
Things have certainly changed. My roller coaster ride has been, and will continue to be pretty intense. I've come to realize that there is nothing wrong with that. There is only good in these experiences.

Physical changes...my hair is super short and RED. I can't describe how much I love this look for myself. When a hairstyle and color makes you feel more vibrant, more alive, more cheerful, more upbeat....just overall BETTER, you know it's the right one. Not to mention I have gotten more compliments on my current look than any previous one. While I would feel amazing without them, they do boost the self-esteem even more.

I am also recommiting to my health. Testing my blood sugar more often, exercising like I am supposed to, and getting out of unhealthy situations.

I've downloaded RunKeeper app to my phone as well as a pedometer. I also found this awesome program that will help motivate through monetary loss or gain.

The WIP posts obviously took a time out before they began. Though I do plan on getting started on those soon.
