The new year, a new age ( big 2*8*), I am feeling refreshed.
Yesterday I actually dressed in a pre-pregnancy shirt circa 2007. I wore matching earrings. I wore heels. Oh and I wore my hair down. I didn't shave my legs but that will be our secret. Everyone at work noticed. This leads me to believe being a frump wasn't just my secret, it was public knowledge. Truth be told I felt good. I felt attractive. I felt renewed. This in itself is cause for celebration.
But on top of just working on the physical me, I feel other aspects of me are growing, evolving, changing. I feel like I have hit a new milestone of maturity. Maybe 28 is a good year for me? I have said before, lately I have highs and lows and it just so happens if the pattern continues, 2009 should be a "high" year...
I have made a pact with myself. I need to change. I need to motivate. I need to move forward. Not just one foot in front of the other but leaps and bounds. My work has suffered. My marriage has suffered. My idea of "motherhood" has suffered. It is time to take control of the reigns and there is not better time than now.
Today is a new day, a new start, today is the first day of the rest of my life. I will make it a good one!
