I have been very absent from blogging as of late and  I miss it and I need it.  Christmas was amazingly wonderful and my heart is bursting with happiness and love.  Things over all are good.  Starting next week I am going to be chronicling my weight loss journey/struggle to be healty.  I know, I know…who wants to read that.  But this is something that I need to do and I need to make sure that I work through my issues and choices.  It is really important to me that I take charge of this part of my life.  I am in charge of all the other parts of my life but this issues have evaded me or I have allowed them to evade me and conquer me.  I will no longer play the hostage to my issues that allow me to rationalize that eating whatever I want and saying it’s okay.

So, this new year will bring a new me.  I am going to Hawaii in May for my 10th wedding anniversary and I will be in much better shape than I am now.  I want to own all part of my life and I haven’t lately.

School is good and the end is in sight. One more year of actual course work and then it is dissertation research time.  I cannot wait to be done.

Well, I hope everyone has had a happy holiday–whichever ones you celebrate and hope that everyone has a happy new year.
