Two Years Later

I just realized that it was just two years ago that I started my blog. December 7, 2006 was my very first post. I then looked at the next post and had to laugh at it. It was written two years ago today and I am laughing at how retarded I was. I am so amazed at the different direction my life has taken and so happy that I am no longer in the situation I was two years ago.

I am in awe at how much I have grown and how much things have changed. Two years ago I was a little party animal. I was always out, always drinking, living on my own without a care in the world other than my next social event. I had a shitty roommate and lived in a crappy neighborhood in a cute place that I tried to make home but was never home. I never cooked, I never went grocery shopping, I went as long as I could between doing loads of laundry, I was totally irresponsible at work, and the list goes on. The only time I went to the store is when I needed more alcohol and only then would I decide to get something to eat and it never was that healthy.

Two years later I am married to the most wonderful man ever. I no longer have to look for my special someone, my other half. I have him, I snuggle him every single night and am lucky to share all my life experiences with him. I have been blessed with two beautiful, wonderful step-children that I couldn't love more if they were my own. I honestly couldn't imagine my life without Swae or Seth and would honestly go insane without them. On top of that, we have a beautiful baby girl on the way that will soon be completing our wonderful family. I grocery shop on a regular basis, I make dinners (healthy ones even), I am constantly doing laundry, I no longer just think of myself, I now live for the kids and my little girl on the way, I am starting to be more organized and not procrastinate as much, I am not a regular downtown, drinking is no longer a main thing in my life. My family is my life.

I never would have thought that I would be where I am right now. I thought it would come later in life. I would NEVER change it for anything though...EVER. It just blows me away how fast time flies and all that can happen and change.
