I’m here. I did it. I stopped blogging quite some time ago because life just got HARD. Overwhelming. Not only that, I tried to make my blog something that it wasn’t and it just added more stress than I needed. So I’m beginning again.
The other day I tried to figure out exactly when I started blogging. I couldn’t find a real date, but gosh, it was early 2000’s easy. I blogged to talk about my fitness journey and to meet people. It was really nothing more than an online journal. I met so many wonderful people. The people stayed but the blog changed.
It’s time to take it back to the beginning again. Like this blog, I’m kind of starting over too. Here in a few short months I will have been divorced for an entire year. In a week, I’ll have lived on my own for a year. I think this first year has really been fight-or-flight. I’ve covered my needs. Now I’m discovering, now that all my basic needs are met, that I’ve got some major ground work to do physically, emotionally, and spiritually within myself. Times are a changin’.
Welcome to my new personal journal. I’ll write about my life, how I’m dealing with it, my victories, my defeats, and a whole lot of fitness stuff. There might not be a single person out there who reads this and honestly I’m at the point in my life that I’m ok with that. This is for me. And if by some lucky chance that I meet some lovely people along the way, well, that’s just bonus happies.
