my year of adventure begins






So this is the year of adventure. I am trying new things every month to grow and live my life. This month I went shooting. For those who know me I am not a fan of guns. I hate them, but I actually had a lot of fun. I conquered my fear of them and actually became a pretty good shot. I am looking forward to doing it again. Next month I am going to crash a wedding! I am going to go sky diving and over night hiking during the summer. In other news, I also have started to work out again. i have a new plan and after two weeks i am already tightening up. I am working out four days a week in the morning lifting weights, every day during my lunch i do a cardio mixed with tightening my problem area, my butt, and three days i stay after work to do a little more. I am losing fast now and eating better. I am very close to my goal, but going to go for a smaller size like a 12. The only problem is my glutes and it is going to be the last to go, but i swear it is going to go! So this year is off to a great start. also I have been thinking dating is the wrong choice now. I want to date and i have some nice guys who are interested, but i don't know why it feels wrong. Lastly i have set a date to go to the temple. I am so excited and glad i finally am going. It finally feels right and I am really ready to make this commitment. If you remember on my June posting I was struggling until I had that awesome experience there, for those who have not read it read June and the spiritual experience in Zion, I felt like i was never going to get there and now April 6th is the day i make my huge commitment to the Lord and I am so happy I made it, doesn't mean life is going to get easier, but now i can go in the Temple, do work and be closer to the Lord more than ever before in my life. What an awesome thing that is going to be!!!
So this is me accepting what is done, move on and try to continue to make better choices and live to the fullest. Will keep updated about all the adventures.

my new book idea and new thoughts

So i am going to start my new book idea this weekend. i will get back to my novel i have been working on, but i am just not into writing a love story. my heart would not be in it since my only love experience was a depressing and sad one. I am excited to start something new. I have been writing it in my head the last few days and i like it so far. I have been remembering important moments in my life and some silly one. To look back and see have far i have come in this life is funny. I don't think after all the choices i made early on that i would finally become this stable and normal as normal could be girl. I could have gone in a total other direction in my life and yet i came out OK and better. I love who i am today. I am still strange and see things in different ways, but i love it. It must have a purpose in this life and there has got be a reason for it. I feel like I am here to do more than get married and have kids. That is important too and I am looking forward to it, but i feel i have something more to give and do here in this world, but i have no idea what. i will figure it out. This book about my silly strange crazy life is just for me to see, but i may want to see if it will be published one day. I think some people would find my journey so far interesting, but maybe not. Even though my life has not turned out the way i felt it would after all these years, i am finally OK with it. I am still sad about it, but i have no idea what is going to happen next and that is exciting and very scary too. All i know is I am grateful for my life and my experiences.
