It's been a while since I've written, but I haven't had much to say.  It's been a very busy few weeks with weddings, truffles, work and pictures.  But as I sit here, I remember why I started this blog, to get back to my former self, the caring kind soul I yearn to be.  Part of discovering that person again, is to come to terms with the person I am now.  I'm not a bad person by any means, I've just become jaded by some bad relationships.  I've been lied to, made fun of, had personal information thrown back at me, and have been told to loose "just 5 pounds" to gain the affection of someone I had a crush on.  I know most of you have had the same things happen, we're human by all means.  I'm just taking a stand, today, to erase the moments that have jaded me.  As my mom put it, we're burning all the negative out of our lives, and focusing on the positive.  In part of my discovery, I really, and I mean really, would like to loose a significant amount of weight.  More importantly, I'd really like to finish my half marathon in December.  I'm not running for a certain time, I'm aiming for a finish and simply that.  In starting the positiveness, I'm not focusing on the actual weight loss, as I get frustrated when I gain then when I loose and visa versa.  On the positive side.  I feel great and confident.  I signed up for dance classes again (which I genuinely miss) and am incredibly excited to get my feet on the floor once again.
