41 Days of My Life Day 1

I am 35 years old. I live in a small river town in northwest IL.I have lived here 10 almost 11 years.I am a home health aide.I help the elderly stay at home by doing things they can no longer do.I love it becuase I am very much anti nursing home since I have worked in quite a few since I started working...I am currently going to school to get my degree in Medical Billing and Coding.I love studying anything health care related....I have one son he is 13 years old. His name is Zachary Christian.So that is me! LOL

Update

Things are going pretty well in our household. I am working as a home health for almost 2 months.I love every minute of it.I go in and help elderly clients out.I help clean,cook, do laundry and run errands.I find it a very satisfying job. I was nervous at first having to go into other people's homes but they are very welcoming and I find myself actually forming a relationship with each client. I am also ending this week my first semester back to school.I am finishing my degree for Medical Billing and Coding.My first two classes was intro to Computers and Keyboarding. I have held a 90 percent average through the whole six weeks.I am hoping this continues throughout my time in school. I just was offered another job working in the evenings at a new gas station coming into town.They are opening Labor Day Weekend.I am very exicited about the new job. So that is my update.I am hoping to spend more time blogging like I used to.

Wednesday May 26 2010

Today was a great day! I accomplishes so much.The house is looking great and the laundry is almost done.Tommorow its grocery day.I am not a fan of grocery shopping.I hate seeing that money go so quickly.

I did great water wise today.I am working on second bottle of water.That really is an accomplishment for me.I hate water and usually cant even get through one bottle. I can already tell the difference with drinking water instead of soda.

I got a pedometer today so I can keep track of how many miles I walk each day.I am hoping to be able to step it up every few days.

Patience is a Virtue

I am not a patient person.I want everything to go my way NOW! I know that sounds selfish and awful but its true.I want everything to flow easily and go according to plan.When one little kink gets in my plans I just want to run into my bedroom and cover my head with blankets.I was taught as a young child that life is not fair and will not go according to plan.You would think after 35 years of my life not going according to plan I would have that stuck in my head...Nope I still do that with that day after day after day etc.

My goal for the upcoming week as I work on getting more organized is learning there will be kinks in plans.Its ok to pick up and keep going or just make an alternative plan that does include hiding out like a scared child.This will not be easy and I will need to kind to myself but its a goal worth pursing.
