The new me ...

So here I am ... the new and improved me ...


This is more or less my natural colour.  One of my favourite dresses.  Standing in my front hall.  Fresh from the salon.

It's been quite a hit.  A few people at work didn't even recognize me ... Interestingly enough, I'm dressing better, wearing makeup, wearing heels at work, and I'm far more confident than I was.  Why?  Because I decided to be.

I got sick and tired of the same old same old.  Tired of the complacency.   So I'll get up and work out in the mornings, eat healthy, stop procrastinating (my biggest downfall) and enjoy my life.

The past few years since Barry's accident, I felt like I was along for the ride.  I wasn't there yet.  I wasn't ready for a big change in my life.  I don't quite know how to explain it.  But now I feel like I'm more on par with where he is at.  Different.  But similar.

And together ... we're unbeatable!  I've always wanted to be a positive role model ... I feel like the stars have finally aligned ... and it's time to make the most of my life.

I hope you'll join me as I make improvements to my life ... and hopefully bring a little joy to yours.
