Hello there!


Thanks for taking the time to explore my journey. I am a happily married Southern girl who loves life. I am so blessed to have an amazing family and friends I can't live without. That being said, I am also Bulimic. I have struggled for nearly 12 years to end this battle and become a healthier, happier me. At almost 30 years old I have finally decided to give it my absolute all. I am ready to put this skeleton in my closet for good. I have faith that I can, and will. I want nothing more than to make peace with myself and my body. There will be many good and bad days ahead. I hope this blog not only helps me, but may find a way to help someone else.



Much love and happiness.

A chill in the air and a smile on my face....

     It is finally starting to feel like the holidays.  And I am finally out of my bad mood.  It has been a busy two weeks.  Right now, with a fire crackling, the Christmas tree lit, Jozy running around with a jingle bell collar and cider bubbling on the stove, I am in a blissful state.  Thanksgiving has come an gone.  My mom and dad left a few hours ago after a weekend of shopping, painting, eating and an afternoon trip to the movies.  I just finished washing and hanging my crispy new scrubs for my new job Monday.  I am loving the fact that today is only Saturday so I have a full day left before my weekend comes to an end.  All and all, it has been a great few days.

     I can't say there haven't been a few rough moments here and there, but overall, I can't complain.  Thanksgiving lunch at my aunt and uncle's house was like a blur.  Although, for some reason, seeing my youngest cousin with her baby made me sad.  I got that  " I should be the one with the baby" feeling.  I was pretty bummed for a while after we left.  Stupid I know!  I suppose I have since gotten over it.  I do still have lingering baby fever though.

     I feel like the week ahead will bring positive things for me.  I cannot wait to start my new job!!  Next weekend I will be going with Jeremiah to his company Christmas party for the first time.  I'm sure most of his coworkers are convinced he doesn't have a wife.  Note to self:  Must buy new outfit. 

     I feel another fresh start coming on.  Hopefully it's not just a cold.  Happy Holidays.  :)
