Fun in the Summer

I have started the ball rolling and the CHANGES are in place.  My last blog was about needing to make changes.  Since then, I have lost 24 pounds, and I have filed for divorce. Life has changed so much! I have tried to not get in a rut, but grieving has a way of immobilizing you until you’ve had ENOUGH…I am ready to branch out a little, here and there.

I am planning on doing more things with my girls, by myself, or with friends.  I even went out on a yacht on the ocean with a coworker (and about 50 other people)! I’ve never been out on the ocean, seeing as I can’t swim (note to self: learn how to swim!).  I attended a beach event where another coworker’s band (he’s a drummer) was playing.  I had alot of fun.  I went to the movies (rarely go) to see Captain America, the last Harry Potter movie (moment of silence, please)….

I know these things might not seem much, but for me, who is a homebody and doesn’t like to go places, these are HUGE accomplishments! I plan on doing more of this in the future, and am looking forward to it!

I watched a movie yesterday, Julia and Julie…about a girl who blogged about cooking recipes from Julia Child’s cookbook.  Maybe I can do the same thing?  As in: Go different places, take pictures, and blog!  This will definately help me get out of the house more often if I can blog about it!  Will think on this and get back to you!

I was doing PROJECT 365…where I took a picture a day, uploaded it and blogged about it.  When I started getting stressed about the ending of my marriage, the project fell by the wayside.  It got to be too much.  I will definately pick it up again…i might upload just my favorite pics from the days that I missed so I don’t get overwhelmed.

take care and see you soon!
