today is the first day of my life

well...28 years ago anyway.  that song by bright eyes is one of my favorites, i think i sing it on the daily, because really, isn't every day the first day of the rest of your life?

today is my birthday, and my official blog birthday too.  i wanted something to reflect my years, so the timing just felt right.  don't judge, because i'm going on vacation...and probably won't post for a week.  bad timing or excellent timing...since if you're going to know me, you are going to know i love to travel.

right now we are on our way to visit some sweet friends in Salt Lake City, i am soo very excited to get there, and get out of the car.   traveling with an almost two year old who has never quite bonded with her car seat is kind of miserable.  we've done this drive before, and we've loaded my husbands phone with plenty of mickey mouse clubhouse (hot dog!) because it is long...and deserty...which isn't a word, just pretend okay.

so, why a blog?  because one of my character flaws that i'm learning to embrace is that i'm balls to the wall...or nothing at all.  This last year i've focused on losing weight and went from 270 down to 228 at my lowest! badass right?  except the month of june may or may have not been a stumbling block and i'm afraid to get back on the scale.  i am a slippery slope, one bad day and i might as well just make it a bad week...and in this case month.  i am, by no means, proud of this.  and thats why i want to change.  i want to change my relationship with food, my relationship with exercise, and most of all change my mind!  i'm hoping by holding myself accountable through blogging that i'll be a stronger me.

join me, would ya? lets be the best we can be together!
