Here we go again! Happy New Year 2014

As you can see, I've been slacking on my blog posts.  Each year I try it again and this year will be no different! :)

One of the reasons I've been slacking is because I started doing foster care in October and I've had a 10-year old girl.  I won't blog about her but I'll just say that between having her and taking care of my mom and working, I've been VERY busy!!  I am exhausted every night but I'm starting to get into a routine and I actually worked out with a trainer last night and signed up for an exercise class called X-Plode on Thursday evenings.  Now to find time to train for my half-marathon in April!

I wont actually blog about my foster child but I will say that I have learned quite a bit about the challenges of being a single parent. I know I'm not her actual parent but my life has changed tremendously over the past few months!  I now have to prepare meals every night and I have to be home by a certain time.  I can't just leave the house when I feel like it and did I mention that I'm exhausted?  Ha ha!  I am so grateful to have such wonderful friends who have supported me in so many ways!  I promise I will thank you all and call those of you that I've been meaning to call.  If you haven't heard from me, please know that it's not because I'm unappreciative; it's just because I'm tired.  That's not a complaint or an excuse; it's just me trying to juggle all of my new responsibilities.  I'm rambling, I know.  Maybe I should just go to bed for now and try again tomorrow.

I'll talk to you all soon! Thanks again to all my friends reading this and know that I appreciate you! :)
