Since it is the beginning of a new year I have decided to start a blog.
I am excited to be writing again, even though I feel a little bit rusty!
I have titled my blog "Laura loves..." because no matter what I am going through I want to try and stay positive, and it should be hard to be negative when I'm remembering the things I love! :)
This is going to be quite a big year for me, I will be turning 30...not for nine months...but still!! I want to say that I am looking forward to it, that I'll be embracing my new age, that I am excited about it...because like a fine wine I'm only getting better with age. However, I'm not looking forward to it. I am scared of that number, of course I was also scared of 26...now I look back and realize how silly that was...and I'm sure I'll be doing the same thing in five years...but that doesn't help me right now! I don't feel old. I don't have any gray hair. I don't think I look my age. Still, it's scary.
I am planning on getting in shape, up until I gain a lot of weight! My Husby and I are trying to have a baby. We have three kids, but we've never had a baby together. We are hoping that this is our year...I am ready to be fat with baby!
I am trying to stay positive about my job...which is hard. I taught high school for four years, middle school for a year before that, and now I'm teaching fifth grade...and it is the most difficult job I've ever had (and I've been a hotel housekeeper). It's not just the amount of work, but also the morale...I didn't know what I was getting myself into!
I do love the new year. Everyone making plans for themselves. Seeing so many people having a new positive outlook. It reminds me that I am blessed. I have a wonderful supporting husband. I have the best kids any step-mami could ask for. And well...at least I have a job!!
YAY 2011!!
