A Woman of Many Hats

I have been blogging, somewhat privately for a few years but thought it was time to take it public. I've had friends ask why I don't blog when I give them recommendations, suggestions and general encouragement. I never had a good answer other than, "I do, it's just not public." My family and I started a blog about 2 years ago to help us set and maintain goals to be healthier. Unfortunately, I'm pretty much the only one that still posts to it so I thought it was time to branch out and see what the rest of my friends and family thought.

In the last few years, I have set and met many goals. The majority of these are health related but as a whole, I have become a much better person (at least in my own opinion). I have lost a large amount of weight, I have become dedicated to live a healthier life, I spend more time focusing on what's best for my family, I have gone back to school with the goal to finish my bachelor's degree (something I started nearly 16 years ago), and I have become a better friend.

So, the main reason for my blog is to document my life better. I set a resolution this year to journal. Needless to say, I've pretty much failed to this point. I have many reasons to journal, some better than others but overall, because I have a pretty awesome life. I'm blessed to have a healthy, happy family. I have lots of advice, suggestions and drive to help people become healthier. I love watching my children grow but hate that I don't remember the "funny" things they said or memorable moments that I want to cherish forever. Most of all, my main reason for blogging is because I want to share my best and worst moments with you so you can learn from my mistakes. Some days my blog may be about the most dreadful and horrible workout (knowing how good it was for me but despising it at the same time) and other days it may be about the perks of working with Autistic children (they truly do say the darndest things). So welcome to my life in a nutshell and I hope you can come with me on my journey. I will do my best to make it interesting and please feel free to comment, post, etc. as it will help me to know what you might like me future posts to be about.
