OK, scratch what I said about short posts... hahaha.. this one is far from short but I gotta do it!
2012 would be the year to find my Happy. Not that I haven't been happy. I have an amazing life with nothing at all to complain about. And soooo much to be thankful for.
I'm almost debt free with a roof over our head and car that works, an amazing little strong willed Vegkid, a Veghusband and the best most cuddliest dog in all the planet.
I have hot water in my shower, cold water in my sink, a working heater, a bed to sleep in and everything I could possibly need in our old home to live comfortably.
I have the best mom in the world (if I may say so myself), extended family, real life friends, on-line friends, legs that get me moving, and eyes that work to see the beautiful sunshine today. I have learned tons about food and lifestyle, healed my son with food, helped my husband with ailments and kept myself to being as healthy as possible.
Yes I could go on for days about everything I'm grateful and thankful for because it is true to no end.
But all that said, as mentioned here before, I've spent every bit of my adult life being a wife, and even more of the last 8 years being a mom, and somewhere in the mix I'm finding ME!
Heck, I like me! Being the best me, means I can be even more for my family. 2012 is the year to find my Happy? While I did say that.. And I did decide to run the 1/2 Marathon, start strength training, I did start an eating plan, de-cluttering, and crafting. I also signed up for Health Coaching Program and all that in a 30 day span.
BUT I didn't know what finding my happy truly meant until the past couple of days.
This week I've learned of a door that will be closing for me, and that only means that another will open. I'm confident that this decision will force me to truly find my happy! What ever that may be. I'll take time to find what that is, and make sure it is the best for my family.
I'm so grateful for the opportunities I have had that led me to where I am. And wish I could thank every person that was a part of them. If any of you are reading this, THANK YOU!!
At the end of this day, I'm going to drift off to sleep with a big smile for whats ahead and a heavy heart for those people that I will miss as I embark on a new journey..... I don't know exactly what that journey is over the next year, but I know it will be an amazing one.
Hope you'll check in and say Hi as I post what is next in the Veg house.
Lots of loving, happy and positive thoughts to any one reading this.
Signed,
A very blessed Vegmom
