I can't really tell you what might grace these pages. I made a promise to myself that 2010 would be a year of change.

"But Sarah," you may say, "you are practically perfect in every way! What could you possibly change for the better???"

I know, I know, it's hard to believe, but even I could improve a few things about my life.

I have been struggling with depression for years and I have finally started therapy.

I have been flossing more.

I started going to the gym....not really a change since shortly there after I stopped going to the gym.

I started organizing my house.....also not a big change since it still isn't.

I dyed my hair.

In other words, I'm trying to take care of myself. And by "myself" I mean ME. I'm not focusing on being a better mother or wife, although I think those will be pleasant side effects. I'm trying to be ME.

The challenge is that I have to figure out who exactly that is first.

So perhaps the point of this is to brag up my accomplishments. I suppose I can tell you about set backs (not failures!) but I really don't think that is quite as fun. ;)

It would be really fun for me if you have accomplishments to share as well!

For instance, yesterday I FINISHED the laundry. Oh yeah. For about 5 minutes, there was NOTHING in the dirty clothes basket. I can savor those minutes. I can make those minutes great because I feel like I did something with my day. Of course, there are many MORE days when it's just the damn laundry.

So we'll see what happens with this blog thingy. I may never post again. More than likely, I'll tell you all in minute detail about my journey with flossing my teeth.








So exactly what do I need to do to accomplish this task? Great question because I'm not sure. I think there are a lot of little things that will all contribute to being healthy in mind, body and spirit.

One portion of this formula is creating a home environment that is a sanctuary. I don't mean it's holy, I mean it's comforting. It's HOME. And although I'm super lazy (like I could haver spandex and a big L on my chest) I need a certain amount of order to achieve that feeling. That order is, so far, elusive. Stuff seems to accumulate everywhere!!!
