Thankful for Blogging

You've probably forgotten me - and if you have, I can't really blame you.

Life has a funny way of just happening. It gets busy - you lose yourself - and something has to give. Unfortunately, when something had to give, it was blogging. I haven't been here in this little space since early June - and even then my posts were sporadic.

Here's the thing - I was enjoying my summer. Not only that, I was in the midst of feeling sorry for myself. And even worse, I forgot who I was. You see, this summer I did something I promised myself I would never do. I let a guy use me. And there's no excuse for it - but I was really, really mad at myself. I wasn't sleeping, I wasn't eating, and most importantly I wasn't living - I was going through the motions. I was at my lowest weight ever, but it wasn't because I was being healthy like before, I just wasn't eating. I thought that maybe if I stopped eating, if I lost more weight, he'd stop using me. I'm not mad at him, nor do I harbor any hard feelings for him. I wish him nothing but the best. I had to learn to focus on myself. A lot of lessons were learned and I'll be forever thankful for this summer. For what its worth, I feel like I owe him a thank you. I made a lot of decisions I'm not proud of. But the thing about being at your lowest point is that there's no where to go but up.

Enough about that - I have so much to share with you. If you follow me on Instagram, then you probably know a lot of what is going on in my little corner of the universe.

There have been a lot of UK games...with a bearded man. :)

These girls and I have become close, and aren't they the cutest things you've ever seen?

Keeneland came and went for all you Kentucky ladies. 

The Fla/Ga Line concert was a blast...

Fall funtivities happened. Lots of pumpkin patches, lots of memories, lots of wine.

And Halloween.

Sure these are only just a few of the memories that happened since my last post - but I just thought we'd hit the high points. 

The best thing about blogging, is that I'm hoping you welcome me back with open arms. But I'm also thankful for all the posts I've read in my absence. For the encouraging things you've written - for all the tears I've cried reading about your thoughts and feelings. I've been around, just haven't been commenting. 

Here's to a new start in the blogging world, happy memories, and being back to a community that I love.
