A little bit about me...

I am starting anew this year, well wait I’m starting anew for what’s left of this year…..the past few months have been one of the most stressful times in my life. Everything has stressed me out to the point of wanting to throw in the towel and hide out until everything is safe and secure again. I have been anxiety ridden, nervous and overall a pain to be around. Adam has so graciously stood by my side every step of the way never giving up on me and always pushing me to hope for the best…I admire his positivity so. Truth is, I was born a worry wart-hence the title “Mary, you think too much” I’ve heard this phrase longer than I care to remember and upon hearing it the same thought comes to mind…"believe me I know". If only I could shut off my brain! The fact remains that my mind never stops and I’ll forever live in the “what if” realm of my brain. The thing about me is I have more self-awareness than any person I know and if you notice a fault of mine…I’ve already discovered that fault, named it, done my homework and come to a conclusion as to why I display this behavior and then beat myself up for having this fault. I can asses any situation to the 9th degree. The problem lies in changing that fault. I have finally realized that it’s not necessarily about changing it all in one day but maybe working on those things that I don’t like about myself. Taking it one day at a time, one minute at a time is a principle that I now vow to adopt….I’ve started putting my thoughts..my many many thoughts down on paper-well in a Microsoft word document…and it has helped. Thanks to my best friend Amanda’s blog themomjob.net. I have been introduced to a new world of adventure and interesting people. Thanks to her daily inspiration I have decided to start my own blog. I'm hoping this blog will breed positivity and help me to deal with my roaming mind!
