A New Year

I am so glad to see 2010 go - it was not a good year for me. But 2011 looks hopeful. I am ready to put the past behind me and hopefully move forward with good health and happiness.

So far my health has not been so good - my anixety is through the roof - I have been on Zoloft now for about two weeks - I do not think it has kicked in yet - but my goal for this year is to get healthy - I am ready to feel like my old self. I am trying everything in my power to being my stress levels down. But it is really a matter of changing my way of thinking. I have had alot of bad things happened in my life in the past ten years and I think the miscarriage and blood clotting disorder has just sent me over the edge - but I am fighting my way back. I am still going to acupuncture and yoga and I am still mediation. I know if I put in the work things will start to turn around.

As far as my happiness - I have to say my marriage is better than ever. We have decided to start a new business - a Landscaping Company - we just finalized all the documents this week - so that is an exciting chapter in our life. Our marriage is getting better day by day - we are really communication and working together to make it better.

I think about having a family and children all of the time. I know right now is not a good time - I need to get my health back in shape before I try another treatment - but I am setting a goal to do a treatment this year. I know it is very scary for me - I am scare it will not work or it will work and we will have another miscarriage - but it also might work and we can finally have the family we so desire. I am not sure when we will do the treatment but I know it will be this year.

Happy New Year to all of my readers - I wish health and happiness for all of you.

What are your goals for the new year??

You sound like you are doing so much better and I'm happy for you! Congrats on the new business and on the improvement in your marriage. I know when my DH and I are struggling it feels like everything in my life is falling apart. We need our partners. :) Cheers to a great 2011! Oh, have you thought about taking up a cardio sport? I started running about 4 years ago and it really helps me deal with stress, it's a huge relief for me. Just a thought. :)

A new business, how exciting Jackie! I hope it takes off and then your hubby will be home every time it snows:) I am so, so happy to hear your marriage is doing better.

I hope the Zoloft kicks in soon and you start feeling like your old self again. Zoloft never worked for me but Prozac worked wonders so if its still not working in a few weeks I would definitely ask for something else, you just never know what will work and what won't.

I hope your 2011 rocks!
