I am trying to get back here more often. I do keep in touch with a lot of people via facebook BUT I really miss all the details.Some things are going really well in my life and some things are pretty stinky honestly.

Hello All!!!Last week was spring break for my girls and we took a little road trip. It was nice to all get away together. We had a nice and relaxing time. I cannot believe March is almost over and this weekend is easter weekend. Time if flying!!!
8 days until the half marathon, it is April 7th. This training season has been a mental one for me. I have been feeling so scared about the half marathon this entire time and I know the reason why, is because I have not lost the weight...
