This is me…spreading my wings!

I feel like the butterfly in me is spreading her wings…

I am excited and hopeful!!!!

Today I got my hair lightened…a totally new thing for me.  (trying to put a new pic on my page:)

Then, when I got home, I just found out, I got a promotion!  My supervisor emailed me with compliment after compliment…and told me she was promoting me!  Wow…

AND now I am working out and eating right.  No more caterpillar binging!

I have found a personal trainer.  Someone that is tough, but sensitive, like myself…and is a single mom like I was…

All of this is completely a new thing! 

The whole time I raised my son, I could never have done this…never have spent money on myself, without tons of guilt.  The years of abuse from men and pain of the past made me eat for comfort.   And hide myself below layers and layer of fat.

But now…it is a new day….

AND It feels so good to love on me!

To FINALLY learn to fly freely!

    All I can say is “You go girl”! How totally awesome that you have been promoted. Yes, you are a Diva Butterfly that is discovering her beauty and making her life her cause. You continue being amazing and inspiring others. This is your time, your journey, your story.

    Fantastic! You’ve a lot to feel great about. Looking good, feeling good and doing good!

    Good things seem to happen when you are feeling strong and positive. I wonder why that is?

    You must feel so uplifted to get such praise and an obviously well-deserved promotion.

    Congratulations
