So, there have been way too many changes in my life lately.
I keep saying I am ready to start, and then I try to start, and I fall flat on my face. I am so ready for an accountability partner. I am ready for some major mental shifts and ready to embrace a MAXIMIZED MIND!
I CAN do this. I can life a healthy lifestyle. I can live the life I have wanted. I can live healthy and long. I can see myself getting married, raising a family, and watching my own children go off and raise a family of their own. I can see their children have children.
So many dreams. So many obtainable dreams.

My diet. I don't mean "dieting" but rather a lifestyle change. I want to cut out the crap. I want to eliminate sugars and all the things that make me feel awful.
I had a calzone for lunch today. Against my better judgment. My belly is so bloated and extended that I look like I am carrying a small baby.

I had to cancel my half marathon. I cancelled it and hopefully I'll try again for it next year. I am so not prepared. I was doing ok, but Foster Care really became my prime focus.
Perhaps Foster Care is what needs to drive me and motivate me to live a life of wellness and health.

My mom has a friend in her 70s that is still an active foster mom of special needs children. I want to be in my 30, 40s, 50, 60s, and 70s and beyond living a healthy life for these babies in my care. I want to adopt and keep up with the infants and the teens and the ones that grow up and have children of their own.
I want to set the bar high. I want to be an example. I want the children in my care to learn about health and wellbeing. So many youngsters learn by example. I pray that I can be that example to them on so many levels.
