4-5-15

Today, I turn 50.  A little more than two years ago I began this journey and it has been a series of challenges, adventures, beginnings and endings.  The following were my goals:
1.  Learn about myself
2.  Figure out what I want the 2nd half of my life to be like
3.  To help others particularly woman with their journey towards 50

In many ways, I feel that my life can begin again... New decade, new adventures, and most of all new loves.  I am exploring all of these options.  The past is not quite done, but I hope it is soon and through the most recent challenges, my hope is to have better communication and all things settled so that one so sweet, kind, and courageous can relax, enjoy have fun for the next three years.  My truth be the ultimate indicator. I have most definitely learned about myself particularly why I do and feel the things I do and feel.  I want the second part of my life to be filled with  love, fun, and kindness.


So far these are the things I like:
1.  My precious daughter.
2.  My cute furry dogs.
3.  My beautiful house.
4.  My perfectly awesome job.
5.  Monte Cristo sandwiches
6.  A clean organized house
7.  Warm sunny day
8.  A freshly mowed yard.
9. The love, adventure, and fun of a wonderful man.
10.  Laughter
11.  Rest
12.  Purpose
13. Hanging out with friends and just talking and laughing.
14.  Truth even when it hurts.
15.  Having time for everything on my mind
16.  Hugs
17.  Coffee
18.  Family
19.  Running long distances.
20.  White Birthday Cake.
21.  Kind words.
22. Chip and Joanna Gaines
23.  Arkansas, Alaska, Arizona, Kentucky and North Carolina.

Today begins the best part of my life. I am exactly where I need to be. So I need to get up, get moving and start really living the second half of my life.   FIRE: Fifty Igniting Real Excitement.
