The Start of My Journey

Today I started a new journey; mentally and physically. I did my first workout using the Beach Body Product called ChaLean Extreme. Working out can be so awkward; the movements they make you do. You don't want anyone to watch you or see you because you don't really know what you are doing. Well I did it even though I am totally not motivated right now. This is my journey.



A lot has happened in the past two months that have been life changing. My mom was diagnosed with cancer on New Years Eve. She was admitted to U of M for treatment. On January 12 my daughter was born which has been amazing. I am taking in every moment since she will be my last child. I have two others; Amelia (5) and Caden (3 1/2). With such a high in life of a new baby, things were good. Then she got sick with an infected belly button and ended up spending 5 days in the hospital getting antibiotics. She was released on Feb. 6. During the time Ella was in the hospital, my mom was released from the hospital for a few days. Feb. 8 she was admitted back into the hospital and on Feb. 13 she died. Life has been full of extreme highs and lows since 2010 rolled over. Since I have been on maternity leave I have had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with my dad and sister (whom is pregnant and due April 15). It is my mission to grow spiritually and physically fit in the time I am off.



Last week I started my spiritual growth. I joined a group at church called the Sister Circle. We meet twice a month to talk and grow together. This is the first time I have done something like this.



This week I start my physical fitness training. Awkward it may be.....I am doing this for me.



This blog is for me to share my spiritual and physical fitness journey. This will keep me accountable, to myself, and all that choose to follow me on this journey. I am both excited and scared to venture down this path. I hope you will join me.
