Last Year in my 20's

So last Wednesday I turned 29!  I cannot believe I am 29 years young.... where has the time gone!  This is my last year in my 20's and it is both freighting and exciting!  I am excited to see what I accomplish in my 30's, but not quite done being in my 20's (guess that's why I have 1 more year).  I want to make this last year count and then ring in my 30's in style at Vegas of course!!


My goals for the last year in my 20's (these are in no particular order):


  1. Lose 75lbs
  2. Complete 4 rounds of 21 day fix
  3. Close on my first home
  4. Travel to Las Vegas
  5. Help change Cody's eating habits to healthier choices
  6. Get Cody into Big Brothers/Big Sisters
  7. Complete 1 round of Les Mills Combat
  8. Complete 1 round of PIYO
  9. Complete 1 round of 22 Minute Hard Corps
  10. Get down to a size 10!
So as my family, friends, and readers I am counting on you to help me stay accountable.  The first thing I am working on is Closing on our home.  This will be happening this week, should be going to sign papers on Wednesday!  Once I get that done the rest will follow!

All of lifes curve balls

So I recently wrote about a possible new path in life.  I decided to wonder down that path to take a chance, but I didn't like where it was going so I decided to take a turn off of that path and create my own.  I liked where I was going, being free, single, and focusing on me so I am going back to that.  However my new path did introduce me to someone who I believe was placed there for me to help.  I strongly believe that my purpose in life is to help others on their paths and to find themselves by sharing my journey and what I have been through.
We have all been through stuff in our lives, that is part of becoming an adult, bad things happen to all people all the time.  The most important part is how you recover from it and get back up after being knocked down.  So many young people these days rush into relationships or jump from one relationship to the next.  They don't know how to be themselves without someone else.  It is so important to find yourself and find out who you are as an individual.  You need to learn to love and appreciate yourself before anyone else can have the chance to do that to you as well.
Find a hobby for yourself and do something that you love.  Become your own person and the rest will follow.
