Housekeeping (Not the Un-Fun Kind)

 I logged into Blogspot and remembered that I started a blog back in 2014. Since I only made exactly ONE post, I'm going to keep it. And the name.

So, first a few "housekeeping" things. (This is likely the only housekeeping I'll be doing today.)

The Name

Ramblings of the Rescued. Cringe-y? Maybe. Yet, it's true. I'm gonna ramble, that's for sure. And the reminder that I have already been rescued is one I need every day.

Rescued from sin, rescued from Hell, rescued...from ME.

I like it. It's staying.

What I'll Cover

First and foremost, this is for me to get my thoughts out. And my struggles. And, yes, as you've been previously warned, my ramblings.

The main thing that I plan to share is my weight issues. In the words of Tommy Callahan, "I have what doctors call a little bit of a weight problem."

(Now's a good time to interject that there will be a lot of movie and television quotes.) 

I'm not trying to be anyone's before and after. This has been an issue for most of my life, with a brief respite in high school and college. I just want a place to process. And if me baring my soul is an encouragement to someone or lets them know they're not alone, that's a pretty sweet bonus.

As anyone who knows me (or is friends with me on Facebook or follows me on IG knows), I talk a lot about our son, Haven, and the grief journey that goes along with giving your child back to the Lord long before you're ready. And, that goes for losing my dad, as well. So, those topics may come up, too. Being an emotional eater, it just makes sense.

Who knows. I may throw a book recommendation or review in here, too. Yeah, buckle up, it might get wild.

See Ya Soon

I thought it would be a good idea to give anyone who reads this a head's up on what to expect. (So, I guess this is for you, Mom and Mark. 😂)

I'll be back soon.
