changes

just an FYI notice:

as some of you with blog reader (or whatever it is called) may have already noticed i have been switching all of the posts on "tough enough" over to my "perfect storm" blog. i was having a difficult time keeping up with so many blogs. in order to streamline the Internet for myself with hopes of being able to post more consistently everything will be on "perfect storm". i have really been glad to have the posts i do from when i was starting on a path of healthier living but i wish that there weren't so many gaps in my progress. so.... i am currently up-to-date on the blog beginning with the new year.

thank you to my track buddies for your continued support. i appreciate the waves, hellos and time spent talking about life. here's to us all making great strides in 2010.

2010 take me for a spin

Looking forward to 2010... Cheers to a new year, hopefully new beginnings and definitely new adventures!

What 2010 Can't Do

It can't erase this past year, I have scars from it.
It can't bring loved ones back.
It can't give me my old job.
It can't forget the physical pain.

I cautiously look towards 2010.

Falsely Titled

Boy was I optimistic before 2009 began. I posted this on the 1st of last year... little did I know that my world would be rubble with-in a few short months. Anyway, lets get this look at the last year over as quick as possible.

Bring on '09

Cheers to a new year, new beginnings and new adventures!
