So I started this blog with good intentions a year ago. You know to blog get my positive thoughts out and just use it as an avenue to say what I needed to say. Then, to be honest, I really think I completely forgot about my idea of keeping a blog. Oops.

A lot has change in the last year. My eight posts are all about living with my sister and how I never thought I would be able to live not with family. That's the biggest change in the last year I guess, I no longer live with my sister and brother and law. That's such a yay thing I just don't really have a way to fully explain it. I'm living with one of my oldest friends and it's working out really well.

I control a lot of aspects of my life right now. I know that sounds really, really strange. It's not like I had someone pulling puppet strings for my life before. I didn't, I've always been a fairly independent person . I started off this year make twelve steps to a better me and spent a lot of time focusing on aspects of myself that I want to improve and I think that is making me a bit of a control freak....

For example: my health. Here are a list of things that I've month by month (with a bunch thrown in this month) cut completely out of my life: fried foods, fast food, diet coke, pork, high fructose corn syrup and artificial sweetener of any kind. I light exercise thirty minutes a day and start every morning with a healthy breakfast (no donuts and poptarts here). The epitome of health right? We'll see.

I'm wondering though if I'm becoming a bit of a control freak. I've always been a bit of one, I like to do things my way. This is a fairly pointless blog. Oh well, what can I say? My life is fairly drama free and boring these days. Am going to try and end these blogs on a positive note so let's see if I can think of something good to end this with.

I've got it (it took a couple moments pause but maybe blogging and keeping these things saved up for when I blog will help me notice things more.) I'm reading Water for Elephants and then I'm lending it to my mom to read so that we can do see the movie. I know that sounds a bit odd thing to be excited about, it's fairly common thing but it's not for me and my mom. We have very little common ground, she's a lot closer with my sister, so I'm excited for us to read the book and see the movie and discuss like I do with so many of my friends.
