Now that the holidays are over it is time to start this new year on a good note. This is when we begin biggest loser so here we go, lets start subtracting pounds while adding smiles, health, and happiness. On top of biggest loser Durand and I have decided that we each get $25 for every pound lost so that gives me even more reason to pound out the runs, listen to Bob tell me what to do on my biggest loser DVD's, and use my muscles until the hurt. This is my time to let go of my wants and love of chocolate and put it in a place in my mind where it can be a wonderful treat that I can only earn. This is the time that I get to really work on the things that need to be worked on.
So here it is 2011 and I am prepared for a great year. I look back and wonder how I got here, how I got so lucky to gain the life I have gained. 2 years ago I was a single mother of two beautiful children, about to be a single mother of 3. I then had my baby and made amends with his father, moved into a two bedroom with him and our six kids for about four months, and then moved into a four bedroom rental. So by October of 2009 I had six kids, a wonderful partner, and a four bedroom house we were renting. As we figured out how to make our lives "nomal" we continued to grow, I got a better job, we found a house to buy, and our children were doing wonderful in our new big blended family. 2010 brought a lot of happiness and amazement. 2010 was the year that we started doing a lot of things, Durand carved his first pumpkin ever, glittered his first stocking ever. We went hikking, bought a new car on top of the house we bought. The was some heartache in 2010 also but it was heartache that caused us to become closer, learn new things, and love each other in a different way. We have been blessed in 2010 so now here is 2011 and I just pray that we will continue to be blessed. I pray that our family continues to become stronger and we continue to create new traditions.
So heres to 2011......may it be the best year yet.........maybe, just maybe I will complete my family and get married.........LOL
