The Beginning

I have decided to work towards bettering myself, to quit worrying about what other people want from me, and to work towards what I want for myself. Some of my goals may seem simple or silly but they are things I need to do. I'm journaling this journey for two reasons 1) I'll be accountable to those who read it 2) I'll have something to look back on later to help me remember where I started and where I'm going.

So a little about me now:

I'm 23 years old

I weigh 235 lbs give or take a shoe

I work at Siskin Hospital

I go to church most weeks but I don't do regular devotions

I do not exercise except for the parts of my work that count as such

I'm horrible with money I can't seem to keep a budget or save
