yes, despite the lack of blog posts, i am still alive. and kicking. here is what has been going on in my life...
1. i moved to denver! living with my sister, watching the nephews every once in awhile, and planning the next steps in life.
2. i got a new laptop, which is why i am able to post again. hopefully there will be many more posts to come.
3. awhile back, one of my dear friends taught me how to make necklaces. since i moved, i have been beading like a madwoman! ok, not exactly. i've made 4 necklaces and two bracelets. maybe i'll sell them. maybe i'll just give them away. who knows?
4. i have started going to a gym again. it's painful but it feels good. if pain can feel good? i guess in some circumstances it can. definitely in this one. my goal to lose enough weight to feel comfortable in a swim suit and then i am going to treat myself to a tropical or beachy vacation. so watch out ocean and palm trees! i'll be seeing you soon.
5. i have come up with a list of things to do in denver, and i will be working on them the next few weeks. so far, i visited the lovely animals at the denver zoo, accompanied by my sister and my nephews. it was a beautiful winter day and i thoroughly enjoyed myself. here are some pictures so that you can enjoy the experience as well. :)
