A fresh new start

Well I am starting over again from scratch. All of my hard work from last year is long gone, and I will have to work even harder this time to get the same results.

We had a great day as a family on Saturday. I was able to take the day off (I almost always have to work on Saturdays) at the last minute. We went to a "Mommies" picnic @ "Splash Pad" in Kannapolis, and had a wonderful time. Then we ran to South Park Mall to have my iPod looked at (more venting about that later, I want to keep this thread upbeat !!) The we drove to the new (and first in NC) Buffalo's Southwest Cafe for dinner http://www.buffaloscafe.com/ (Thanks for the directions Denise !!). We really miss Buffalo's since moving from Georgia, and it was nice to have a taste of our old "home." The whole day was free of any "meltdowns" or arguing, which is pretty amazing for a 6 year old ;-)

I took the great day we had as inspiration, and decided to go for a walk. This was the first bit of real exercise I have had in a while, and it felt good. I was only out for 20 minutes, but it was still still pretty hot and muggy at 10:00pm. I was surprised how easy it was, I figured I would be huffing and puffing after five minutes.

What a slacker !!!!

I can't believe how big a slacker I have become !! It is hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since I have posted anything :-( I am very sorry and embarrassed by that. I will do better this time.
