Hope Filled Mom

One reason why I canceled out this blog last time was because I felt like I was pouring my heart out to the on line world, and not to my husband.

Something I learned in marriage counseling is that we need to be “intentional” when interacting with our husbands, especially now when the kids are so little, and the time we spend together is limited.  I just feel this blog was taking away from opening up and communicating with my husband more.

So my promise to myself…what i post on this blog (and even on twitter) will be said to my husband first, no matter how random or out of the blue it may be.  I will do this in an email, on the phone, or in person - it will just depend on where he is and where I am.  This will actually help me to be a better wife and also share my life with the 5 people who read this blog on a regular basis. 

SO there you go, that’s my promise to myself and I intend to keep it.  Once I stray away from this I will also stop blogging.  So if you don’t hear from me in a while at least you will know why…

So I have been working on this losing weight for a while now.  This blog will now be my main weight loss blog/journal.

I recently joined Weight Watchers and I have been trying to set mini goals for myself.  So this week my goal is to vacuum the entire house everyday for the next 7 days to kind of see what adding that little bit of exercise into my daily routine does, and if it is beneficial I will keep doing that.

I have actually been doing this since Saturday and I can already FEEL the difference it has made in body, and I can SEE the difference it makes to my carpet!  So I guess the benefits will be two fold, yay!

So here’s to a clean house and a healthy body weight!
