Back to Blogging!

A few years ago I started blogging on and off. The one that stuck was my running blog I started while training for my first FULL marathon. I enjoy writing things that I am passionate about! I kept up with it for a quite a long time, mostly so I could easily go back and remember all the high's and low's (because there are a ton involved in training!) I ended up running and finishing it on my birthday last year Oct 6th, (4:16, which I was SUPER pleased with!) But I never kept up long enough to even tell about it! 

You know what happened?

LIFE! 

I have gone through so many changes since October of last year.

The biggest was getting separated  moving out on my own (for the very first time in my LIFE!) and starting the process of a divorce.

Hands down 2014 has been the HARDEST year for me. 

I went from being a stay at home mom, to working full time. I went to paying my own rent, having a car payment, bills, bills, bills! Essentially I have grown up quick this last year! I have learned to juggle getting both kids to school, going to work all day, and getting my workout in (which for me is a priority, I can't function without it!)  We moved up to Portland,OR from Sacramento,CA back in 2009. Having no family up here is tough, but I am so thankful for the network of friends I have up here, they are my support system! I love you guys.

All I can do is pick up, and keep my head held high through all the hurt, pain, and struggles. 

I want to start blogging again on the things that are everyday life for me! 

My kids! 

My active Lifestyle - Crossfit has taken over! (and yes I'm here to talk about it, so you may want to back out now! You've been warned!) My running, yoga and zumba are on the back burner for now, but not for long, I miss my long runs!Dancing has always been apart of my life, so sometime soon I will try and fit at least 2 classes a week in! I am even toying with getting certified again! ...We will see! 

My diet! If I am busting my buns in the box- I want to look like it! 

So really, its just going to be a mash up of whatever! 

2015 is almost here and I can't wait for a clean slate, and to begin new!
