Took a little vacation...

Hello Sisters!

As you can see I haven't been here in a while. Here's my good excuse. I joined LA Fitness the end of December and been going to the gym 4 days a week from 5:30am-7am. Which means I go to bed early (I try by 10pm) and get up early. I also quit caffeinated coffee and now my hot drink of choice is Good Earth Sweet and Sour decaf. I went back to eating about 70% raw foods.

I am purposed on loosing some weight, but more importantly, is gaining muscle. I was hot when I married my hubby and there is no reason why I can't be hot again! So, I'm working hard to loose weight, gain muscle and eat healthier.

When I get home from the gym the children are usually up doing their chores and we get into the day (Jesus and homeschooling) around 10am.

My oldest daughter Hanna is planning on serving Nancy Campbell who prints the Aboverubies.org magazine. Her magazine is dedicated to encouraging mothers in their HIGH calling! And what a wonderful calling it is!!! Hanna plans to go in April and stay for about 2 months. Nancy publishes this magazine, and has for the last 32 years, free for the asking. Hanna will work in the office 40 hours a week along with 3 other young ladies also serving. There will be no physical pay, but I am BELIEVING that Hanna will receive much more than money as she sets herself to serve and hear from the Holy Spirit for the direction for the next part of her life.

I wanted to tell you I have already taped 2 fat videos of me. One when I first started exercising and one about 2 weeks ago. I'll put those up in the next few weeks, so that I can do a third and will have lost a noticeable amount of weight so that I am not as embarrassed! :)

Well, it's time for me to go because Hanna needs my help fixing her laptop. You know, that's another reason why I don't get on the computer. I want to be available for my children. I don't want to be behind a computer nodding my head "yes, yep, etc..." while my children say, "mom, mom, help!" I want my children to always know they have my full attention! :) Hanna's here...see you later!

Blessings,
Shannon
