Turning 40!!

Well, I did it!!

I turned the big 4 0 on Thursday.  You know - it is just a number - not that it is going to change my mind about this new me and such.  I am planning on doing my best to be a better me..  Lots of changes - turning 40, new job, etc...

This weekend with it being birthday/mother's day weekend has kind of blown my 'diet' of some sorts, but one of my perks with my new job is a free pedometer.  Getting it ready today to see how many steps I can do a day. 

Anyone out there reading on My Fitness Pal?  Love it - will plan on tracking more food each day.

Thanks for listening!

Great First Week!

What a change!!!
The people I work with are SO nice - everyone is happy to be working with such a great company!! 

There's a lot to learn but I am loving every minute!!!

First Day at New Job...

So today was the first day at my new job.  I thought I was going to be like Chandler in the "Friends" episode where he was an intern at an advertising agency and he was the oldest by a lot.  But I was WRONG!  I fit right about in the middle.  One of my former supervisors are in my training class with me.  A friend's cousin is in there, as well as someone who lives in my town.  It was a super great day - lots of information but all good!!!

Can't wait until tomorrow!

Looking for followers...

Looking for followers - anyone in the same boat as me - starting a new beginning?  Doesn't have to be the same type.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

One More Day

Today is the day before I start my new job.  Nervous but excited. 

I am supposed to go to bible study tonight.  I am a part of a beginner bible study group.  It is a very small group. Two leaders with another gal and myself.  I am thinking of not going anymore.  I don't want to be a quitter, but I am not understanding it fully and am frustrated.  I know that sounds like a whiner.  But I think I need to choose a different path. 

Anyone out there know of a do it at home bible study for beginners or dummies? 

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog!

I am turning 40 in 12 days.  I am not thrilled.  Thirty was no biggie for me.  I was pregnant with my one and only son.  I was happy.  Turning a big number wasn't the main thing on my mind.  I was pregnant and thrilled!!!

Forty - well - that is a different story.  I am a lot heavier now.  I need to lose some weight.  I left my job of 3 1/2 years and will be taking a step back career wise.  But it is more money, better benefits and a lot of room for growth. I start the new job on Monday.  No time off for 6 months - will be hard.  I have not been full time since I was pregnant. 

So this blog will be about my journey of turning 40, and the new changes I am making.  

I hope you will join me on this journey.
