I LOVE These Things: Redefined Mom’s Direction in 2015 {Week of 1/26}

I LOVE THESE THINGS

So, I poured my heart out yesterday on the blog and explained Why I Quit Couponing and a couple of the changes that will start Monday on the blog.

I get that change is scary, because one of my biggest fears is CHANGE.

I’ve been married to the same man for almost 20 years. I’ve lived in the same house for 14 years. I drink my coffee out of the same puppy cup every morning (I got the cup in England almost 20 years ago).

But, it is time to face my fear, put on my big girl panties, and some changes.

Stuff That Will Stay The Same

My guess is that if you are reading this article, you decides to not hit the “unsubscribe” button or take me out of your favorites in your browser’s menubar…and for that I’m thankful.

As I said yesterday, this site is about redefining who “you” are. And that is the great thing about redefining…it changes all the time. I want to provide you articles and information that help better your life, for the long term.

I’m also thankful for the internet so that I, a 40-year old women, has the freedom to let her voice be heard. I’m not the youngest, prettiest, smartest, or the funniest, but at this age, I’m glad I’m not.

My wrinkles, stretch marks, saggy boobs, love handles, and piercings, have been earned. Earned through failures, success, mistakes and well-executed plans.

Sometimes you get the right nudge at the right time to remind you that you are on the right path. Viola Davis’s acceptance speech at the SAG awards was my lightning rod this week…

So, to all my sexualized, messy, mysterious women out there, let’s keep redefining who we are, so the mainstream doesn’t do it for us.
