moving.

moving is not a very fun thing to do, but everyone has to do it at some point in their life, and if they don't then my hats off to them. right now, my husband and i are in the middle of packing our things up in boxes,  wrapping all the glassware in the kitchen so they do not break in transit and taking everything off the walls.  we have only been here since february and we are already moving.  it is crazy to think how much we have accumulated since then. we find some things, like our photo albums and take a break to look at those or find dog toys under the bed and play with zeke for a minute.  i think those moments make moving a little bit easier to handle.  

since we have been here we have met some great people that are definitely not going to be forgotten and have also made some wonderful memories.  it is hard to think that moving on is a way of life and that we are heading towards bigger and better things.  we have so much to look forward to in our new home like making new memories and also reconnecting with lifelong friends and family.  we have grown up so much here and feel like we are ready for anything that the world throws at us.  

i wanted to share with you this one song that reminds me of moving and moving on. i hope you all are familiar with it...

college.

good news!

kyle just got accepted into college. i am so proud of him. we were starting to worry that he would not get in because it was taking forever to get a response back from the admissions department.  he will be starting his first class in january at north georgia college and state university to get his degree in physical education and athletic training.  he is going to do great. 

kyle called me into his "man cave" earlier this morning. thinking that he found another deal on groupon or living social i didn't really rush in. when i got into his room he pointed to the computer screen and said "i did it, babe!" my heart dropped when i heard him. i am really so proud of him and his decision to start his journey with a higher education.  ever since that moment this morning he has been full of joy. we are so happy. there is nothing better than starting your day with great news like that. 

i hope everyone else is having a wonderful day.  

goals

tomorrow: be healthy- i can do it.
this week: i need to drink more water-i can do it.
this month: focus on my diet and workouts- i can do it.

i'm going to be a debbie downer for a minute. lately, i have been neglecting myself from water and proper food and i am just eating whatever i want, whenever i want. i know that its because i'm lazy and i cant commit to anything. that really frustrates me. i need to stop that habit before it gets way out of hand. can't i just tell myself that i can do it and it will be enough!? i guess not. i feel like i always try really hard and never get anywhere. personal training, working out, eating right, workout programs, etc. i know that it takes a while to see results, but  it is hard to stay with this kind of routine. it's not like i'm super busy or anything. ugh. it is frustrating. i need a personal motivator.

on the bright side, tomorrow is a new day and i will eat small meals regularly, work out twice a day (am/pm) and consume 70+ ounces of water. i would like to do that for seven days straight and see what my body thinks.

that will do for now.
