Not a fan

People are fans of lots of different things...their favorite sports teams, Twitter, McDonald's, or even fly fishing to name a few. 

I am a fan of a lot of varied things myself, but one thing I am not a fan of is Blogger. No offense to the Bloggos who created Blogger, but I just find it very constricting and I, personally, don't like to be confined. It doesn't make writing any fun for me because I'm not happy with the way my post looks when I press the "publish" button. And it makes them look a lot longer than they really are.

So, probably sometime within the next few months, I will be making "the big switch." Now I'll keep you guessing as to the exact date that will be, but nonetheless--when I have the time to do it--I will be moving in cyberspace. Or, perhaps I will keep this one and just start a new blog with an "un-anonymous" (is that a word?) theme. Maybe I'll do that. It makes it easier to open up about things when only a handful of people know your true identity. So, I guess this blog is good for that and maybe it will speak to someone along the way who happens to come across it somehow.

Until then, come get your fill of varied and non-consecutive posts because my life is just like that right now. And when I move, I guess I can't tell you where I'm going (because then you would know who I am).   {smiling}

2009: Welcome Back!

Happy New Year to everyone!

Just welcomed in the new year quietly at home with my husband and (sleeping) little boy. 

Anyway, I was going to write a blog about new beginnings, etc., but one of my favorite bloggers already did that, and I love what she wrote about. Read her Dec. 31st blog here:  http://cindybeall.com

I too, beat 2009 to my new eating habits, and I feel like I'm already ahead of the game and I love it!! In just a few short months, I hope to be welcoming back my size 2's & 4's!! And not just for the sake of being any particular size (I'm short, so for me that's pretty much a good place to settle)...but for the sake of building on that momentum to accomplish other goals, for the sake of just plain ol' feeling better, and for the sake of being able to keep up when my 2 year-old son runs circles around me. Ok, so maybe I won't have that kind of energy again (and maybe I will)...but this time, I am doing it with purpose, and I'm ready for it!

I have a tune in my head..."Welcome back, welcome back, welcome baaacckkkk!!!"
