On a quest...

I have been busy living life these last few weeks. After my husband's depression medicine finally came in, life returned to normal. Needless to say, without it, it was as if he had lost his mind. I was starting to think desperate measures would have to take place. All is well now, or at least significantly better.

I am having so much fun homeschooling this year. I think I really did well planning this summer and researching new curriculum. Justin & Skylar are on the way to a well rounded year of school. I am very grateful to now be a part of HEDGE, our HS co-op. It is a new and positive season of change. Everyone seems to be adjusting well.

I am on a quest...after several years of compromising health issues, I am determined to return to my college days weight. I shall not divulge that nor my current weight, but it will be a treat. My concern, without sounding arrogant, is that I was a little cutie. I guess I will chase that rabbit when it comes. I am working for that soon. I work out each evening for about 45 minutes to an hour doing cardio and I have changed my diet, my entire family's diet significantly. No more convenience foods, sodas. We eat a well rounded meal, with plenty of veggies, fruit and water. I am putting a lot into this. I pray for happy returns.

Why am I doing it? I plan on being around for my kids for quite a while and I want to be my healthiest. I want to have an over-rated relationship with my husband (intimately). Ohh-lala. Also, if anything were to happen to him, concerning his health and diabetes, I want to be in a place that I can easily get a job and have other friendships. Last, I am so tired of being tired. After going to Six Flags and Disney World this summer, I was reminded of my youth and all that I had done. I want to live life to the fullest, glorify God through it and enjoy Him forever.

I am cleaning Skylar's room today. Painting the window seal, redoing her curtains and reorganizing. How can one child have so many toys? I take responsibility for it. She is spoiled. We don't call her Princess Skypie for nothing.

I must go now. Work to do and Justin wants to use the computer.

I'll blog with yah soon.
