First, Life in Tennessee hasn't been all that terrible but has been a new experience. Most people have been nice which is good but yet they're reserved... Living here has been a growing experience in which i've had to get out of my comfort zone. I guess a lot of it has been my attitude. I'm not gonna lie, I miss Colorado and Utah. This place just seem so dirty with strip joints down the main streets and Bars at every corner... The thing I do like about it here is the beautiful greenery and hills. I'm sure there are beautiful trails to hike in which I would love to hike them. The job hunt here hasn't been too great... Because of my poor credit its been hard getting one. Why do they have to check your credit to see if you can be hired? You can't pay your bills without any income coming in...
Second, The unexpected came... News from my sister told me that my uncle died a few days ago.
I will always remember my uncle and I am grateful to know that My father in heaven has a plan for us and wants us to return back to him. I'm grateful to know that he won't be suffering anymore...
Third, difficult time forgetting a wrong that was done to me. Its a wrong that broke my heart and I never expected it but now I'm having to let go and work on things. Trust is hard to regain once its been lost.
Fourth, getting back into shape! oh yes the smaller eating portions and the exercise... I must say I was very proud when I made my first pull up. I've been trying for a few days to do one and I just wasn't strong enough or light enough to pull myself up... But I did it, yeah!!! Also I've started up my work out dvd along with running or jump roping.. I wish I could rollerblade but the streets here are dangerous and don't have shoulders to run or skate on.
Fifth, learning to make myself happy. Somedays can get pretty lonely and these are times I need to keep myself busy and also try to make myself happy. Being happy is a state of being and I have the power to decide if i feel this way or not, but sometime out side things can affect the way you feel. But yeah this is one of the things I'll be working on along with the other things I mentioned. One thing for certain I need to be positive and have a better attitude about things even when they go wrong. Easy to say but hard to do...I think I wrote a whole book and this was just suppose to be a summary...lol forgive me...
