The year of Me

I thought in Feb after my birthday in 2011, that I have to take care of me. More. I always thought I was doing right by myself, I relaxed, I took care of my daughter, tried to pay my bills and drank water, but I never took care of m myself. I never took a break to do something for myself like shopping. Every shopping trip was fraught with guilt, like should I have this, can I afford this. I got my taxes back and went shopping this year with no guilt no remorse. I always wanted to take time out and go to the movies. I did it! I joined a gym, I have been watching what I eat and exercising. Taking care of me. I just thought that taking care of my daughter was just taking care of me, but its not. If im not well I cant take care of anyone else. Now I realize that. I was just going and going, working going thru life like a zombie, now I pay attention, now I am aware of my feelings and I feel good life is good and my daughter is good. I am looking forward to summer. Thanks me.
