Day 2 of the rest of my life

Today I got a media player on my site (Yeay, Thanks to my brother Dale). I am still working on doing laundry. Hopefully I will be able to see the floor to my closet soon (I really can't believe I am admitting something like that, But it is the first step to realizing I need to change is admitting it). The second thing I am working on is a more positive attitude. INstead of thinking of all the things that I have not done today I am going to focus on what I got done. I am also going to try to do at least one thing for some one else (not in my family) once a week. Today I made 2 dz cookies for a funeral. hopefully by striving to be a better neighbor and friend my mood will improve and help me keep motivated. I will let you know how that works.

Getting A late Start on the new year

So It has taken me a little time to realize I need to change a lot of things in my life. Even though the new year started a month in a half ago. I am now to the point in my life where I am going to start getting it together. The first thing I am going to do is lose weight by exercising and eating better. I have decided the best way to do this is to become accountable. So I am going to do this by keeping my blog up to date with my progress. Today I started out by running a short run of a 1.5 miles. This is not a lot but hey it is a start. Once I got done with my run I did 10 push ups. Also not a lot but it is a starting point. I will post pictures as I go so I can actually see if it is doing any good. The next goal in my life is to get my house in order. I am always feeling like I cannot catch up. I feel like I have started a million projects but don't ever finish them. This is the year I am going to finish everything I start ( I know that is a big goal, but it is do able). Today I am going to work on getting my laundry done and getting Brax's quilt set up and start to get it sewn together. Wish me luck! Here is to the first day of the rest of my life (lol I stole this saying from a book title I think).
