A New Year, A New Game

I usually don't make resolutions for the new year. I feel that any changes I make can be done the day I think of them and I am always looking for ways and things to improve. But last night I decided to make some changes and they will happen to coincide with the New Year.

Our church is going on a 21 day fast. I am not that cranked about it, but I know that it will aid in my spiritual growth. So, I am stepping up my game for the Lord and it seems fitting to step up my game for myself. I have 2 wedding this spring to attend and I want to look my best. I have already started losing the 20 pounds that I want to have off by then. I would love to go for 30, but that may be pushing it! I am going to get back to walking the mile 3x per week and cardio 3x per week. Between the weather and Christmas break, I have not been on my game.

The new semester begins soon and I want to continue with the quality of work that I have been producing and improve. I also want to be able to give my kids more attention in their school work, and help my oldest find a job!!!

Also, in my personal life, the area that really started this rehash, there will be more changes. At our church business meeting, the guy that I like (boy, does that sound so middle school) was teasing me about something and a friend said that "He's doing that b/c he likes you". I said that if he likes me he needs to stop playing games like that with his 40 year old self!!! I am not playing games like that ANYMORE!!! If you want to be with me, you gotta come correct! Flirting and joking are fine, but I am not getting any younger, so come with something better than that.
Prince is a big source of confusion for me. I have not been actively seeking a man, but he keeps popping up on my radar. We have been to dinner a few times, been shopping, ran errands together, played golf, and gone to a wedding together. I have always had a good time even though he is kinda nerdy! I know that he is a good man but I don't want to play games anymore. It is what it is... are we going somewhere with this, or not. There is really no in between!
I think that I will look into Match.com or eHarmony this year. I want to start dating again and I cannot wait all day for him.

So that's it. I am not playing around this year, I am stepping it up... moving forward into my destiny, which is bigger than anyone can even imagine! Thank you Jesus!!!!!

Have a Happy New Year !!!!!

Bloggity- Blog

I am sitting here with my 15 year old and he says that blogs suck!! Why do people have blogs for other people they don't know to look at? Bloggity Blog!!!I have no idea, but I am writing one. So here is more stuff about my life that no one wants to read!!


I am in Kernersville, NC with my family for Christmas. This is a SMALL town. I have not seen as small a place as this one in a long while. I mean, there are other places like Greensboro and Winston- Salem around, but it is NOT Raleigh. And I am sure that many people out there would say that Raleigh is a rinky-dink little town too!

I have had fun shopping for Christmas Eve dinner with my mom, but I am tired!!!! I guess that the sinus infection and ear infection have gotten the best of me. She ran me all over the place, but I am ready to eat my delicious Sweet Potato Souffle. It has a pecan glaze on top... Yummo!

I am praying that my kids dad will come up with SOMETHING to give them for Christmas. I mean really, he doesn't provide any support at all for them all year!!!!! so it should not be a chore to come up with $300 once a year! Deadbeat! I can't believe that I married that fool! I pray that my boys don't end up like him at all...

I guess I will go into the kitchen and finish my preparations for tomorrow!
Be blessed and remember that Jesus is the reason and put Him first!

December!!!

It is my FAVORITE time of the year!!! I love Christmas and New Years. I won't be doing much shopping this year but I still will have fun... I am putting up my decorations this weekend. Since this is out 1st Christmas in the new place I will put up more than a wreath on the door!

The semester is almost over and the teacher from H-E double hockey sticks will be out of my life forever!!!! YAY I cannot believe that I will be graduating in exactly 2 years. I am supposed to be doing a reflection on a lesson that I taught, but I am not feeling it. What to do, what to do?

I can't wait until I am out of school for Christmas break and I can walk around the mall and see all of the shoppers. I love the sights and sounds of the season. It is all I can do not to wear my reindeer shirt every day!!! I will wear it tomorrow!

G'nite, maybe I'll post a picture of my reindeer shirt!!!
