A Day In The Life... Lack of motivation edition

I realized today that I haven't posted much lately to let you guys know what's going on with me. I've been posting lots of randomness, rants, raves, and that's cool, but hopefully you guys come here because you actually want to know what's going on in my life. Whether it's because you're nosey or you genuinely care, either way, here are a few updates:

- I am totally lacking motivation as of late. Over the holidays I ate and sat around way too much, and now I'm paying for it... well, my pants are paying for it. I desperately need to get active. I've been thinking about getting Wii Fit... does anyone have any suggestions on that? Is it worth the money? Would I use it? I'm hoping that I'll be able to take advantage of being outside soon... I'm hoping that Sean and I can do our walks again in the evening without it being completly pitch dark by the time we get home. "something's gotta give, gotta give pretty soon..."

- I am so, so, so grateful for my family. We went to TN this past weekend to spend time with my aunt + uncle and cousins. We rode, in a van, mom, dad, Sean + I, and my brother and his wife... good times! For a split second I thought, "ok, we're 30 years old, is it still necessary to take road trips with our parents"? Absolutely. My family means SO much to me, and it's becoming more apparent every day. My aunt battled (and beat) cancer last year... my uncle had 2 strokes... my dad almost lost his job and everything that he's worked so hard for the last 30 years for... my cousin's had babies... so many life-changing things have happened to our family, and it only makes me want to spend more time with them.

- I am completely and utterly in love with my husband. He is, hands down, the best thing that has ever happened to me. Last night, on our way home from the grocery store, of all places, we were chatting about how we can't stand to be apart and how much we enjoy being with each other. Not like previous relationships we'd both been in where you find ways to do things separately, or not come home right after work... but not with us. We could easily spend every single second of every single day together. I know, it's kind of sickening, but it makes me so happy. He is the ray of light that fills my day when I've had enough. He makes everything ok, even when it seems like it's at it's worst. He spoils me... a lot! And he loves me unconditionally. What an amazing gift!

- I want to spend more time in prayer and with the Lord. You guys know how much we want to start a family, and that often weighs heavily on my mind. I'm also not happy with another aspect of my life that takes away so much of my days and time. I'm working on that now, looking at other options, but that too weighs heavy on my mind. This is something I have promised myself that I am going to work on... for me. Just like trying to lose weight and getting healthy physically, I want to get healthy mentally as well.

Wow, that was a lot, huh? So just a little glimpse into a day in the life... now you know!
