Balance...

That is what my life is missing right now. In order for things to work properly, there must be balance.

Almost two years ago, I started this journey on "losing weight" and about a year ago, introduced exercise to the picture. Recently I've become "obsessed" (that's what some around me think) with it. It's become a part of my every day life that when I miss a day, I feel awkward.

It's gotten to a point where some think that "working out" is my priority over anything else. So to clear the record, that is not true. My kids are my priority and always will be. For the past 13 years -- that's all I've ever known....programs at school, parent-teacher conferences, sports, games...and the list goes on and on. Then like I mentioned, about 2 years ago, I finally decided that I needed to add myself to the picture. Do something for myself. And in the meantime, balance that out with working full-time, the various activities of all 5 kids, church...and random things in life that occur.

I am struggling with the whole balance thing -- but I'm trying! I'm just like everybody else, trying to live life and learning as I go!

I apologize if some of my blogs come across as "bragging" or "gloating"...that is far from what I intend. Thanks for following my blog!
