I’m just a middle aged wife and mom making all the decisions for my family. What’s for dinner, what bill is due, who needs to be where, what do we need from the store, what was the last time the dog was bathed, what’s that smell? Don’t get me wrong, I have a great husband that helps along the way. And two teens that grunt and nod approval (or disapproval) as needed.

In 2020, I decided to make some changes. I’m at a point in my life that lots of things seem to be changing…except for me. My kids are older and don’t need me as much as they once did. My daughter is now in college with one foot out the door to being on her own. My son is in high school and when he is home, he’s in his room. My husband has a career that he loves and is thriving in. But where does that leave this stay at home mom that doesn’t have much to stay at home for anymore? While I don’t necessarily want to go back to the work force full time, my side hustle that I do a few days a month isn’t quite filling my cup.

This is also the year that I’ve decided to get healthier and I’m taking my family along with me. I’m a few months in to a low carb lifestyle and am liking the results. Hopefully this is another space for accountability.

So follow along as I make decisions. I’ll be deciding everything from what’s for dinner to what am I going to do with the rest of my life. Your guess is as good as mine!
