New Year, New Goals, New Me!!

It is February. I just hit my 6 year mark at work, and took a vacation for a week to" just be"!!! Well, "just Being" was just that, I was sick all week long with a horrible cold. Maybe it is my body telling me that I needed to rest. Well rest is what I got! I have not been sick this bad for over 2 years. Achey, stuffed nose, bad cough, fever, watery eyes....I have been through the ringer, and feel like i wasted my vacation away being sick, but it is what it is. I feel like a new woman! I have makeup on and my hair is curled for the first time in a whole week. ( this is very odd for me, I always have my makeup on!!!)
Going out with Melissa today to Bed Bath and Beyond and maybe Michaels if I can drag her in there. I need to get some paste for a new craft I have been thinking about in my brain!!! I have been crafty lately, and I love it!! I want to start painting again too.

Kyle has baseball tryouts this next week, starts tomorrow morning. He is excited and nervous. Trying out for Catcher. We are hoping he does well, and continues playing through high school and beyond. He is a good player. I hope the coaches see the drive in him.

Mark is keeping busy. He stopped drinking pop last month and has done really well. I think he feels better too. We started walking at nite, but then I got sick and I haven't done anything. Work is going good for him, he is always busy. We are trying to get on a program to make us healthier, hard to stay on top of it all, but soon something will click and we will be on the road, I can feel it!!! We have good intentions, we just have to keep motivated. I am thinking I may blog about this journey, so i can see it in writing, my thought and actions!! I am going to try, that is a good start.
