Lets go and get tangled in chains of golden days.
I woke up around 9 this morning because I had to pee and decided to call my parents. I figured its a Sunday morning, they'd be sitting down to eat breakfast so it would be a good time to chat for a bit. I ended up being on the phone for over an hour and a half. I love them so much! I know it might sound silly, but it was one of the best conversations [via phone] I've had with them since this semester started. I talked to my dad for quite awhile, about how I'm excited to come home & am looking forward to this summer, how big my niece is getting, how beautiful the weather has been here and all of that fun stuff. Mom and I talked about Misha, how I need to really make sure I take extra care of her this summer, how we're definitely going to work on losing weight together [weight watchers!] and making some serious lifestyle changes. We also talked about the garage sale we're going to have the end of May. I need to start planning the birthday party I want to have for her! I forgot her birthday last year, so I wanted to attempt a surprise party this year to make up for it. And because my beautiful mama is going to be 50!
Its mornings like this that make me realize I'm going to be okay. My parents are such great people and if I'm anything like them, I'm lucky. Its kind of ridiculous but I'm finally starting to embrace being a real adult now [minus paying tons of bills and that stuff]. I'm excited to start taking responsibility for my life, making some changes and just enjoying where I'm at, instead of fighting it. Losing weight, its going to be really hard, it is. But knowing my mom is going to be right by my side, doing the same thing, it makes me feel like I can actually do it.
I'm ready.
I can't wait to come home!
This summer is going to be great.
