Life will begin at the end of your comfort zone

-
I'm not sure where you begin when you 'start over' but this is the life of someone who wanted to be private, because there are several people out there who don't have my best interest at heart.

 Then I realized, I'm called to be so much Greater. And maybe even those who are enemies are meant to read what I have to say. 

 So if you follow this blog, or you read what I write, I ask God to come into your heart, and may you be saved. 

 Because this, this is my story.

Can we talk about friends?

And trying to impress people we don't like? Dave Ramsey has this great quote: "We buy things we don't need with money we don't have to impress people we don't like." I don't necessarily do the money part, but a few things have happened in the past month that created a huge "Woah" moment for me! For years, I have wondered why certain neighbors don't ask me and my husband to hang out more. I would get upset to find out there was a gathering that we weren't invited to. Of course, when I do have the chance to talk to these people, I realize that I don't have much in common with them, or we just don't "jive." But still. For years, I have wondered why certain groups of friends gather and hang out, and I wouldn't be invited. Of course, when I did have a chance to gather and hang out, I didn't exactly enjoy myself or feel comfortable. But still. Recently, I realized someone unfriended me on Facebook. Someo

Plant base

Okay... Okay. Before I get into the details. Here's my disclaimer. We are not 'Vegan' we are not 'Vegetarians'. We are on a plant based 'diet' for 2 weeks. We're testing the waters. We've watched a few shows, we've read several stats, and we've done some of our own research, we've heard first hand testimonies. So, we're trying it out. Day 3 is almost complete. I haven't felt bloated. And I have slept SO well. As soon as this week hits, I will go without alcohol too. So that added in, I think is going to amp up weight loss too. I do know that alcohol sabotages my weight loss. So I will cut that out too. However, weight loss isn't the goal of trying out plant base dieting. The goal is health. I was to be healthy on the inside as well as looking healthy on the outside. I can't wait to share results as they come!

It felt like someone had taken my heart out of my chest, threw it up against a wall, let it fall to the ground and then stomped on it while it was on the floor. The 2nd round felt like my heart had never really been put back where it goes, and someone played soccer with it where it fell out before. I'm not sure I can describe how much I hurt in any other way. But I can tell you now, a couple weeks later. I know I'm going to be okay. Because this isn't about me. I know as a Christian I am to love others, as I love myself. I know I am to forgive, as I have been forgiven. Those two features don't come very easy. Like, at all. I want to share all these things about how I cannot stand my ex husband, and his wife. But this isn't about them either. My youngest boy has expressed wanting to live with this father. Visiting me, and living there. This is the same guy who has a felony DUI charge because he put my two boys in the car with him and drove while under
