A personal growth Goal.

Today I take Day 1.... of a 'Do Over' Challenge.

Yes, I realize this will be two challenges in one month I'm taking on. But you know what that means in English?

 New challenges=Success at LIFE. Take THAT life.

And why not.

What is in your life you'd like a 'Do Over' with? I'm not taking ANY personal credit for this here, I'm merely excelling in my own Do Over and hoping others will follow with in persuing something they should have already done, or wished they could still.

Jon Acuff http://acuff.me/ is pretty swell.
I saw him live, speak first, and I lucked out for sure. Because now I'm reading his books too. Score One Jon.





 I went to see Andy Andrews http://www.andyandrews.com/ whom I had seen before and KNEW was awesome.

 But then just like God does, introduced me to Jon.

He makes things fun. As does Andy. So now I have two favorites.
Just so happens one of them has decided to challenge me... and thus where my blog post comes in.

I challenge YOU- on behalf of a favorite author of mine challenging me. So what's your 'Do Over'?

New new book 'Do Over' will be released in April. By then I will be succeeding in my challenges.


Follow my lead would you?
Here. http://acuff.me/10ddoc/

And here is where I tell you my 'Do Over'
Run.

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
