So I remember having a blog many years ago and posting stupid things about boys and friends...and more boys. I went back a few years ago and re-read everything I had written. I could not have been more embarrassed about what I put out there. Then I have to remember I was 13 when I started that blog! But when I quit that blog, blogs were out of style and I figured I'd never write one again. I was soooo over being dumb over friends and guys (haha, I had no idea where life would lead me).
Now here I am, 7 years later. I'm 22...and starting another blog!
Why now? I think it's really because I'm trying to start on a new path and get serious. I may not be totally over the guys yet, but I've certainly shifted my focus. To a girl. She's needy and not exactly the nicest person all the time, but what can you do? She's my daughter.
So I suppose that leads me to who I am. I'm Christina. 22 years old. Single mother to a beautiful 17 month old. Direct Support Professional for a company working with individuals with mental and physical disabilities.
Who I'm not is your "typical" 22 year old. You aren't likely to catch me at a party. Or at the bars. You aren't likely to catch me with a group of young ladies while my daughter stays at home with sitters or my parents. My daughters father wasn't just some one night stand gone wrong (or right, haha).
The most important thing for me right now it my daughter and my health. I'm focusing on building things to make my daughters life better, and mine as well. I'm working on making more foods at home. I'm focused on making my daughter educational toys rather than just shoving some "educational" computer game in her face. I'm focused on getting healthy and getting in shape. So that's what you're likely to find here: kids activities, recipies and weight loss information, ideas and updates. Of course you'll also get the occasional post about my life as I struggle to find balance in being a mom, an employee, and a woman who stands on her own feet.
