Well my long weekend of fun is over and it's back to the real world. I have decided today will be smoothie detox day and then hit the nutrition hard tomorrow. I've had a week full of reflection, loss, and mourning what once was. Now to look at the now and what will be. God is good, and I need to rest in His daily goodness for me.

The weekend scrap retreat was so good for me on many levels. I was with my gals, I laughed, I cried, I ate, and even shared my testimony. Can't get much better than that.

I think I am ready to begin again. Satan has constantly been reminding me how much hard work it was the first time and it may not be worth it again. You know what...it is worth it again. Being who I am created to be, loving myself as I'm meant to be, sharing myself and what Christ has done for me....WORTH IT!

I am determined enough, physically strong enough, and can only continue to be mentally stronger. So what is stopping me...nothing!

Just when I thought...

I was ready to full throttle ahead on my regime. I was hit with a realization...there is so much to mourn over than just losing precious Selah. I am mourning the loss of my healthy body I had last summer/early fall. That has been a tough realization this week. I'm giving myself the week off to ponder, pray, and meditate this. It has hit me hard, not quite as hard as Selah, but really close up there.

That's pretty much all I want to say about it at this point. Just wanted you to know I am hanging in, still getting on a healthier eating plan, and LOVING my blender and daily green smoothies. Oh how I've missed having them everyday. Sadly, I get so excited about the blender I try and use it 3x's a day!

My blender arrived today!

OMG, I danced around, the angels sang, and my family laughed at me. Who cares! It's HERE!!!!
