Walking til my toes fall off....LOL

Walking!!  The Best Free Exercise you can do.  What a freedom you have to explore the area you are in. I live in the best place in Colorado....I think.  You can literally go 1hr in every direction and find something to do to have fun in....wow what a place. 

So I have been walking alot.  First it was purely for exercise now it is to help with opening my mind and spirit to allow me to keep going on day to day.  I have been walking along the Arkansas River here in Buena Vista Area.  In the summer time you can see all the rafters and all the kayakers.  It is so much fun to see all the people enjoying the river and the fun of the mountains.

Saturday, March 12 New Day New Life New Outlook

Ok I am not feeling sorry for myself.  I am tryign to figure out what I am doing from this day forward. 

I still plan on working on my weight loss.   I have the support and the drive to do it have since November.   The love I have from my siblings is unfathomable.  I never really have known that to be so fullfilling in life.  Most of my siblings are quite a bit younger then I am.  I support them with all my heart, I just thought it really was more onesided.  My sister and my brother from  my dad are very active and love to go outdoors.  They have hiked in places I have only dreamed about.  They keep as active as they can.  Crissy, Jeff and I are planning on climbing a 14er.  Now I live by 15 of the 54 14ers.....Can't wait.  Having this goal I am setting up for a new out look on life.

Friends who become FAMILY

Yesterday when I woke up I wasn't sure what the day was really going to bring.  Later that afternoon I did find out.....Me finding another job.  Not the best time to be let go....just spent the weekend in Denver.  Couldn't time that perfectly......Wish I would have known earlier though.  But that is in the past. 

I am looking to the future.  I am looking at what it will all bring to me.  I am scared, excited and nervous as ever.  Good reason being I have 2 kids to look out for.   This is just another set back but I am looking positive.  That is all I can do.    I have applied today for a job that made my son laugh just because it will be full circle as he said.   I worked in the same place about 7 yrs ago...left the company it was bought out by another company....now that company is being bought out by yet another company....same field....gotta love telecommunications.It's not the best thing I want to do it is 30 minutes away.

On to other things.....I have come to value friends so much in my life.   Even those I may not even met in person ever.  I have such a connection to a group on twitter....love each and everyone of them as if I have known them forever.  I have my friends here in my small mountain community that I wouldn't trade for anything.  One gave last night above and beyond what she should have given.  She told me that I give to so many and not take anything in return what she bought was just a little of what I shared with her in the time we have known each other.  She managed to wake me so to say and realize I have alot in my life.
We have to be positive no matter what we do and what negativity comes our way.  Be Ourselves. Be Strong! Share your voice with others....let those who have touched your life know how you feel.  I maybe down but I am not out.  I have others who are lifting me up and holding me up to be strong.  I need and want everyone in my life to be right where they are.  I am here for them and I know they are here for me.

I love you my friends and now my new family members.  I know this isn't making much sense, but neither is my life right now......LMAO  

SMILE & Make them wonder what you are up too!!

Ok so Life as we not it is on hold.....I come back from a great weekend with my kids and doing a Casting Call for THE BIGGEST LOSER SEASON 12....Yep didn't make it!! I have another avenue to try still.  No matter what this all brings I know I need to lose over Half of me.  My kids like the me now I know they want a healthier, more active, funner(as my daughter says) mom.  I want to do all the fun things with them.  To play soccer, hike, ride a bike ( but need to find a bike I can fit onto first)
