Welcome to my world

Welcome to my first blog post for my new blog. This is going to be a place for me to journal about my life. 

Some random things about me: 

- I am a single Mom to my Monster - who is not my biological child, but he is my heart. 
- I am currently on a journey to lose about 175 pounds; I'm 76 pounds in as of today.
- I have fallen in love with exercise - mainly water aerobics and I just started taking a muscle definition class. Don't be so quick to judge the water aerobics as your grandma's class - these are fast-paced, awesome workouts. My most favorite it my Aqua Zumba - it doesn't help that I adore the instructor. 
- I am going through a divorce.
- I am learning a lot about myself and who I want to be.
- I am a Christian and I am learning what it means to follow Christ. I am no where close to a perfect Christian (news flash - there is no such thing!)
- I love social media - mainly Twitter and Instagram. I have Facebook, but it's mainly to keep up with my extended family. 
- I am a terrible writer, but need an outlet for both my thoughts and a journal of my weight loss progress. 
- I love my KY Wildcats. #BBN 
- I love fall - the clothes, the smells, the cool, crisp air. It is my all-time favorite season. 
- I struggle with depression and anxiety; mainly social anxiety. I hate small talk/networking events.
- I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve and can be way too emotional. 

Thanks for reading my first post. If you'd like to connect, share some things about you in the comments section. 

Have a blessed day!
