It's been a year. A whole year, since we've started this journey together. The time has gone way too quickly. This time last year, I was so nervous to start this blog. Scared to share so much of myself. Would people get it? Would they care? Would people like it and respond? This past year has showed me that the answer to those questions is a resounding YES.

I've gotten so much support from everyone; it's truly humbling. My cheeks still get hot when someone says they read something on here and it's resonated with them. It makes me happy because I knew I wasn't alone. I knew there were so many others, just like me! We're here just trying to get our lives together one day at a time.

Squares has grown, she's a year old. I look back on some of the older posts and I want to give that girl a high five. I've changed in a year of course, so to look back and see my thoughts in black, white and pink :) and see what I was thinking is such a cathartic thing. I see where my head was at that moment. Did I grow from it? Or am I still struggling. It keeps me accountable. I can type a huge missive about being positive and living your best life, but am I practicing what I preach? Am I letting go of hang ups? I'm trying to. Am I still letting boys irk me sometimes? yes. Am I drinking my water and doing my squats? Not as much as I should, but that summer body coming back, you'll cash me ousside how bout dah! - sorry, had to!
