~Day 1~ Oct. 11th My Birthday

Twenty-eight is very special to me.  There was a point during my "twenty-sevens" where I could not possibly fathom my twenty-eighth year ever existing... let alone coming up in full force.  I picked out this phenomenal birthday cake by this amazing cake designer and then stopped and think about why THIS birthday was going to be so special.  Then it hit me.  I never thought it would come... I don't care that I am getting older.  I just care that I have the opportunity to wake up for one more day and give life another try.  Its not too late to undo all of the wrongs or opp's that I have done.  I blew out my birthday candles (early) the other day and the only thing that I could think to wish for was health... and the strength to push myself to become healthier and a well rounded person.  I am going to try and blog about it and see if I can stick with it.  I never stick to my blogs... but heaven knows its not too late to try... its a new year, and sure as hell a brand new me.  I have changed a lot in the past few years and especially the past few months.  Thankfully I am growing and opening up my life to new possibilities.  One of the most important lessons in life that I have learned is that I need to learn to take care of me first and that I can't help anyone else until I help myself first.

Today I took time for me by listening to music, having an epsom salt bath, surrounded myself with great friends, went for a walk, took in some great scenery by the water, ate a giant birthday cupcake, watched three episodes of cheesy 90210, and then went to a yoga class followed by a zumba class.  All in all... thats a great way to start twenty-eight.  Balance... and moderation.

Muah!
