Nothing Witty, Nothing Amusing

Move on. I am.

I have to work on layout, colors and all for this journal. I have changed so much. It's good to be me at long last. I need to change from the darker side of my life that this journal stems from. The lights are on, I like it.

I have decided that surrounding myself with negativity had a massive impact on my weight, my views of the world and my life. I will no longer allow the negativity. It can go back to where it came from and stay there.

Life is good. Even with the occasional speed bump, I have nothing to complain about. It's been a long time since I have been able to say that. I'm centered, I'm focused. It's a good thing.

I've lost about 120 pounds from my highest weight with the help of surgery. I'm working on my issues as to why I weighed 329 pounds. It's slow going at the moment because I'm doing it by myself, but it's happening.

I started college this week. I'm extremely happy about it. I plan to major in HR Management and possibly IT. I will also be taking Spanish to make myself more marketable in my current job; or to move on to something better. They are paying tuition reimbursement, so it's all good. I also plan to take psychology, philosophy, a couple of fitness classes and Japanese along with everything else. I'm gonna be in school for a loooong time. LOL

Lucas and I are really going well. He and I have come so far. We're a team. He finally got back to being my friend and things are good. Again, a speed bump every now and then; but the big picture is in focus. Looks good.

My oldest has moved in with us. Her and my grandpup. We drove from Florida to Utah in her sports car with the Lab mix dog. She's going to start school in March. It's been interesting, to say the least. I wouldn't have it any other way. I am a mom first and foremost until the last kid leaves home. Who am I kidding? I'll still be MOM-ing. Whoever reads this knows it, right?

My goals are pretty simple: to learn, to love, to be the best person I can be. I'm going to be getting rid of the negativity in my life and will live it with compassion, loyalty, honesty and cute shoes. Oh. I forgot to mention humor. Humor will always be my best sidekick.
