Well, there is a lot about me and this blog (journal), and has been a long time coming. There are many things in our lives that mold us into who we become. Sometimes we stay true to our initial beliefs and attitudes and sometimes these experiences can cause us to change. Over time or abruptly, change is something that has been constant in my life. Although there are lots of changes, my base is roughly settled. Meaning I will always hold my current values to what I believe is true, but I may change my role within each situation or even the people in it. I may even change my base values as these experiences mold my new self.

I am a middle aged woman, who has been through a lot. My biggest struggle is my weight. Through up-and-down pounds on the scale, the one thing that stays clear is that when I am mentally healthy I am more physically healthy. I have tried all the fad diets but if I am struggling with my mental health the weight doesn’t stay off. The whole point of this journal is to try and clear my head and straighten out my emotions in the hopes that my body and mind become more healthy for a longer and fuller life with my loved ones.

I don’t have a set schedule of what things will come out and post. I will post as my mind and gut tell me too. I may offend some readers. I can’t be for everybody and I don’t strive to be the right person for everyone. If someone takes offense to my writings they have the option to not come on tis platform and read my experiences. I don’t even know if anyone will read this and that is OK. If this does what it is intended to do, this is simply just for me and my well-being. If someone else finds value, well, that’s an added bonus!

Forewarning. I seriously have ADHD. I got diagnosed during my after cancer therapy. I have known for years but now it is now official. I am not really keeping a good track on what I write about. I am just going to write what I feel I need to that day. It may be a repeat. It may be back and forth with nothing being tied together for awhile. I am learning that I need to write down what is in my head and here at at the specific time. So, if you don’t mind a hot mess you are in the right place. If this will drive you nuts then I won’t be for you and wish you well!
