Anniversary!

Today is the anniversary of one of the biggest things in my life.  28 years ago I married this guy.  Ok, so I am not too sappy, I could say the "LOVE of my Life", "My soul mate", "My best friend" so at times he is some of those things.  At times I want to punch him in the face...not literally. 

Some days its easy breezy, other days its dirt under your nail kinda work!  It is a real life marriage, with ups and downs.  We are blessed with 3 great kids, 2 are married to great people, 2.5 grand kids and a life that is pretty calm.  I hope that we have taught our kids that marriage takes work, patience and the ability to let go of things that just don't matter!

That said, if I can work with another human being on a life long commitment why can't I work with myself?  This week has been good I feel that progress has been made and I can get this thing done.  

So in the spirit of "anniversaries", I am going to make this my personal anniversary... to commit to a year of dedication to getting me back.  I will take stock in the changes I have made and see the strides both literal and figurative.  There are things that I want to accomplish this coming year... I am fearful of writing them down.  I know that will either make them "out there for good" or "reasons to beat myself up".  

So here goes: she writes standing on the ledge ready to jump into the GREAT BEYOND!!!
1) feel like I did when I worked out with Scot
2) wear a size 6 pants, & medium tops
3) have run at least 1 - 5K 
4) have written here everyday

That was not that scary.  I am feeling good that it was not all about weight...it is just a # right???  There are other benchmarks to a good life.  Let's not get crazy... I WILL be weighing myself everyday!! I would like to lose 80-90 and if I do I will have #2 in the bag!!!

Chubby Chick - commitment to ME!
