Here I am...

So...I'm stepping out of my comfort zone here and gonna use you all for my personal gain.  In return you will get to read about the peaks and valleys in my life as they come.  I will gain your unspoken accountability as I will tell myself that you will be reading my blog and rooting for me daily.  Whether this is really happening doesn't really matter to me, however, the thought of a single person reading it will hopefully spur me on to my goals day by day.  In this new year I will be starting a few challenges for myself...not huge ones, but challenges none the less.  With all my other daily duties any size challenge I give myself warrants a plan...so alas this is mine.  Over the course of the next month I will work on my daily moments with God being more meaningful and consistent, begin a raw food challenge hopefully resulting in better sleep, weight loss and more energy.  I will incorporate some form of weekly exercise, more consistent family nights and brace yourself...I will start my own journey in going "no poo"...lol, yes...that actually means to stop using shampoo!  I have naturally curly hair and I believe this will be the answer to all my crazy frizzy days and am excited as to where this is going to take me.  We are also journeying through Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University and you'll be along for that ride too. :)  Okay...so I have more research to do, but I wanted to prepare you for our journey.  Looking forward to it!!!
