I Did It!

That's it!
I finally did it.
Finally took the plunge
I logged off
I deleted my phone app
And without a working computer
I have no way of logging on.
Thank You Shelly C. for encouraging me to try it, if only for a week.
It's taking me a long while to finally do it.

I'm tired of feeling like my life is not something special.
Like kids are progressing much faster than mine
And yea I'm a big gal and yea I have to sleep in the bed I lay in, but I'm over having It thrown in my face every time I open my news feed. I feel like I'm bullying myself by putting up with it.

Well I'm done, over it, & holding any urge hostage for the next week! If I make it through the week, then I will shoot for two weeks and so on. I hope I can rid that toxic mess from my life.

Alright onto better news.
My awesome husband celebrated the big 34!

We are currently enjoying 6 day vacation from work until..........
Tuesday when Hubby starts his new job, completely local, home every night, hourly wage, great benefits job!!!!!!

For a year now we have been on bottom, the past three months all we have gained was home time and that was AMAZING in itself. We are moving on and hopefully up now. I feel at peace with this job move, like this is right. It's going to be a bumpy month transitioning money wise with this new job starting but we will make it through. Heck we survived an entire year struggling!

I'm thrilled you're going to have Sean home every night! You guys deserve it. I hope the transition is smooth in every way. God will provide!
As for the facebook log-off, good job! A friend posted a quote I really liked regarding facebook, "We compare our behind-the-scenes to other people's highlight reels." SO TRUE! What we see posted is not the whole story! Good for you for logging off to avoid negative feelings, that's good self care. And if momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy! ;)
BUT please keep blogging! I enjoy keeping up with you.

Amy! I am so happy for you! For me, I found that once I was done, I felt free. Free to actually live instead of watch other people living!

I am so happy for you to have more family time and a better schedule. The long journey makes the success taste even more sweet, right?!?

Don't beat yourself up about not being where other people are at (with your marriage, your parenting or your life)-- you are exactly where God wants you!
