Saturday.

So Im a bit closer to my goal of having the bariatric surgery. Finally got my lab work done this week. Will be calling the person at the surgeons office next week to see what else they need. Would love to have this done by New Years.

Feel a bit more free since Ive cut some negativity from my life. Standing up for myself was probably the best thing that has happened to me in a long time. It is even serving me well at work. I need to learn how to do that more often.

Making some decisions.....

Recently my values and political philosophy has been tested....but Im getting ahead of myself.

I have a bad habit of making sure everyone around me is happy often to my own detriment. That ends today. I value my friends but I have been shown such disrespect by a handful of people recently that I am writing them off and out of my life and moving on.

Im sure this is going to cause some problems. Now ask me if I care. Why do they get to be disrespectful and I have to make sure everyone is happy? I am all about the civil debate. If you cross the line be prepared to say goodbye to me because it is NOT ok to be disrespectful.

Starting Over. Again.

So this is it. This is the last blog Im going to start. Im trying really hard to consolidate all the different aspects of my life into as few places as possible. So here is the last shot. Let's recap me:

I am a wife. I am a child of God. (Albeit a redheaded step-child, Im still a child of God) I am a conservative. I am compassionate. I have little tolerance for stupidity. I have alot of tolerance for the views of others, as long as they give me the same respect in return. I am writer. I am a future novelist. I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am a worker bee. I am hesitant to trust authority. I am a sister in law. I am an animal lover. I am an Auntie. I am a scrapbooker.

So for better or worse, this is me. Lets see if I can make it stick this time.
