Year 38: A Rebirth (or Reclaiming Jeanne)

Chapter 1: Procrastination?
This blog has been swimming around in my head...I'm not really sure what has kept me from it. As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I decided that this year was about changing around some things. There are some areas that I REALLY need to work on. There are some places I would really like to be in a year from now. One of the main issues for me is that I have left myself behind. I have filled emptiness in my life with very unhealthy choices. And today is a new day. For the last month, I have been working very hard to change some very unhealthy and damaging ways I was living. The main thing I have learned and embraced is that this reclaiming myself, this living healthier is a day by day deal. Each day is a new challenge, each day is a new struggle. But, it's worth it.
I am learning to find things that fill me up that are good and rewarding. Walking, writing, embracing friendships...those are tools I have been given, along with others. I believe I can do this. I know I am not alone.
Happy belated birthday to me...I can't wait to see where I am on my 39th birthday!
