About that......

SO..... I've officially come to that place in my life where I'm tired of the way my body is. I'm really out of shape and have gained weight, so I am finally starting the war against fat.  Its going to be  a REALLY hard road, but I know that as long as I work hard I"ll get the results I'm looking for. Soo in honor of my new journey.... I have hit the pinterest up for some inspiration. !!  ENJOY

PS... I also will be avoiding posting any kind of food things at least till I figure the whole diet and exercise  thing.

Out of the LOOP

Lately I'm feeling like there is some sort of epidemic going on out there. :)  I mean don't get me wrong its exciting... but I am most definitly feeling a bit out of the loop.  EVERYONE I know seems to be either getting engaged,married, or having a baby.  I don't even have a boyfriend and many of these people are younger than me(crazy right?? ) 

Anyway thought I'd let you all know that 2012 is the year to get married/ have a baby.. in case you didn't know .. haha :)  

I am Very happy for all my friends who are having all this LIFE excitement.  It is teaching me that My timing isn't  always the same as GOd's timing.  and I know when I'm meant to meet that great guy God will arrange it( not without me being apart of it of course) I have to do my part too.   A dear friend once told me that whenever I get discouraged thinking my life was going too slow or not down the path "I" thought it should be on  I should say this. 


"When God is ready I'm Ready" ~A friend



 I think this is a sweet saying, its also a great reminder that God really does know best and wants the best for me and even though I feel a bit lost at the moment as to where my life should be headed,( should I make a cross country move or stay where I'm at)  I can TRUST that GOd knows what he's doing I just need to TRUST him .... let me tell you this is EASIER SAID THAN DONE....  :)  ok thats all for today. 




I also must leave you with this lil picture that made me laugh today :)

Random Thoughts

Few people are privileged to know the real Amber, I will tell you that my journals are the ones that know me the deepest. I write irregularly that is an understatement but when I write it is filled with passion and conviction, or just pure frustration. Some of you know I dated a military man for some time, and thought that I might even marry him, but in the end the relationship fell apart due to mis-communication and secrets.

I will say that I learned valid life lessons and I would not trade any experience I've gone through, no matter how hard they were. With this said many people I confess to about my feelings toward the military is often met with a negative light.  Some say you need to get over that type of man because they are all cheaters and scum of the earth. I believe that isn't true !! I have hope that their are a few good men out there standing up for what is right even when it is hard. I trust that there are some men out there in the service that treat a woman with respect and dignity, not as a piece of meat.

I will confess I have ALWAYS  been attracted to a man in the military, I don't really know the root of this attraction, they don't even have to be in uniform I can see a man on the street and comment on his looks and find out/observe he is in the military or was at one point. Some say this is a curse, some say that I am still a wounded soul from my past failed relationship. I say that they need love and support too, just as much if not more than a man who works in an office or manages a construction firm. These men are putting there lives at stake for our freedom.. MY freedom, Now I know they chose this "job" and that some say its just a "job" and I agree in part, it is a job ... but its also a job that sends them into harms way on a daily basis to keep our freedoms and liberties safe from those who wish to destroy what we call "The American Way"

Ok so I'm done with my rant, on that lil piece.  Back to my original intent for writing today, I love the military ,I like the moving every few years I like the lingo, the inside jokes, everything, I just like that way of life.  Honestly I don't know what to do with these feelings, some say I should run as far away as I can from the whole military scene... who am I kidding .. most of the poeple say I should stay away, but  I have a strong current toward them....
