Getting started.

I decided I wanted to start a blog. Why not... doesn't everyone now? Between Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, blah blah blah! I've been blogging occasionally on various sites, I guess as a way to 'scrapbook' various events in my life... my weight loss journey on SparkPeople.com. Various events and trips on MySpace, things that happen with my kids on what ever page seems appropriate at the time. But why not spend some time on myself - and put all this stuff in one place.

I need to do that anyway, as a quest - along with my healthy weight journey, in order to build my business as a Tastefully Simple consultant. Maybe this will help me realize what's holding me back from being successful on my own... or at least give me a recorded 'history' as things go along.

I've titled this "Me Finding Myself - journey of 1000 smiles" because I want to remind myself to smile. Even when things suck or the kids are being royal pains - smile. Life is too short to get upset over the small stuff, and there's almost always another option when things aren't going your way.

I'm going to do my best to write something every day... you might be interested, you might not... but I'm doing this for me. And if it helps someone else out who finds my blog along the way... GREAT!

So, here's to it!
