New Season

Hello everyone! I have been a busy beaver here at the house. I have accomplished a lot of organizing and purging. I did two videos back to back of the things I have accomplished.
I did a video of underneath the kitchen sink and man you would be surprised at what gets lost in the back of everything. I am just glad it is done.
Then I organized our pantry. Now mind you that was before I wen to the store and brought home a bunch of stuff. Word of advice for myself and whoever else may heed. Shop first, then organize. You organize on a half bare pantry and you like how it looks, then you bring food home to put away and you do not want to put it in your newly cleaned and organized pantry. At least that is me.
I also tackled my daughter Macaylas' room. It was a hot mess. I pulled out everything and purged almost all her clothes because they were too small or she did not wear it anymore. I also rearranged her room to be better organized. I spent most of the day on it. At the end of the day I had two trash bags full of clothes, shoes and misc. Two trash bags of just trash. No I am NOT  a nasty person, but when you have a young child that is still in the process of learning and looks for mom to take care of everything. I am learning as well. She loves that it is clean but she likes her bed up against the wall, so that is the only dislike she has. Thank God!!!
Well today is January 13,2015....
I started a life change today, yes I said life change. God said it is not a diet, but a life change. Because a lot of the things that were habit and bad for the life I did have are toxics and addicting. Those habits and things were a drug to me and as we all know it is not something I can dabble around with. Not even in portions, I did the portions and found myself making excuses for me to be able to have a little more. Yes this is true. Some people can get away with discipling themselves to only a little when need be, but just like we have all said at one time or another in our life, " I am one of a kind." So why would not our body chemistry be some what the same. Now I know there are people out there that have the same battles as me and can not afford to pick up something without going over board, just like me. But there are people that have more will power and self control. I am in training and learning my limitations and some of those foods that I have been so addicted to for years I can not even have a bite of it. I hope that makes sense. I know what I am thinking, just not sure if explaining is my forte. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I transform my habits and being. Thank you
Well on a lighter side my husband got a new job and I am relieved! Working in a car dealership is not a great career for everyone. My husband leaves in the dark and comes home in the dark. By the time he gets home everything is getting ready to close, so we are screwed trying to get things done. Not to mention he would travel almost a half hour one way back and forth to work. I thank God he has a job do not get me wrong, I just would rather see him work smart not hard, plus closer to home. Yes the pay is more, which is even better. :)
Anyway, I am just thankful that God is working in our family and giving Him all the honor ,glory and praise that He is due.
I also everyday have been reading one Proverb chapter a day. There are 31 Proverb chapters, so one for every day of the month. It has been an eye opener most definitely.
Well I hope you guys are healthy and well during this season. I will be back with more real soon.

Stay encouraged!
