Very first blog post!

Hey there and welcome to my blog.

Thought I'd put something "out there" in cyberspace about my very own self. Something just about me, for me. Me, me, me. Don't I sound really self-centred? Well, you can if it's your own blog and it's supposed to be about yourself. Let's face it, if you didn't want to find out about me, you wouldn't be here!

So, what's to say. I'm female, a hot sexy babe and this year I had the 23rd anniversary of my 21st birthday. Two out of three ain't bad.

My two babies are all (almost) growed up now, and I've got PLENTY of time on my hands.

I'm in the middle of my mid-life crisis. Everyone else has had one, so why not me? Mine is quite creative and active, even if I do say so myself. I've returned to the thing I was forced to do as a youngster (sorry mum, that's a bit harsh). BALLET!!! Well, the adult version anyways. If you'd have told me a year ago that I'd be doing ballet, I would have thought you were totally cookoo!!

A year ago I was pretty miserable you see. There was a lot happening in my life that I couldn't fix but finally I took the step of trying to sort out the thing that had plagued my adult life - my overeating and its resultant effect on my body. The body that would have to see me through til the end. The end was fast approaching at the rate I was going. It looked like I didn't want to live til I was 100 the way I was treating myself. My knees were sore, I was feeling the effects of increased blood pressure and basically I wasn't interested in going anywhere or seeing anyone. I had nothing to wear and I was embarassed I'd let myself become what I'd become.

So I paid a lot of money upfront and hoped to hell I didn't give up on this like I'd given up on everything in the past! My policy was "Whatever it takes for forever" and I knew that setbacks would arise and all sorts of s*it would happen but I wanted to do something that was just for me. I really did just hang in there from week to week, never really feeling like I was on top of it. But what I surprisingly did have was staying power, because like the Energiser bunny I just kept going and going til it was done.

Anyways, that's enough for one post. Better save something til later.
