Hello and wow! and yay! and whew! that wasn't so hard, I'm finally bloggin' and super excited to start lettin' the words flow! Writing can be so therapeutic, so I won't be hurt if no one reads this, as it's more for myself than anything else. This particular blog is about how I'm getting my groove back on. I'm a mama, life is busy, and it has all taken it's toll...on well, me! Sometimes I don't even feel like I have an identity left after I emotionally drain myself to fill other's needs... How the heck am I supposed to be everything to everyone if I can't even be me to me! Now I'm beginning to realize that taking that time out for myself, and putting some of my needs (and wants!) first is actually okay...it's okay because a car doesn't go anywhere when the needle is on "empty". It's okay because I will have more of me to give if I take care of me first. At least that is the plan. It is time to refuel, refocuse, and reenergize my visions for my future life...and I'm starting...NOW! Wish me luck! (With any luck, I won't need it!)
