Update ~ Dancing Like Mad Monkey

I am still around, although, we can safely say that my blogging goal has gone out the window a bit.  Life has certainly a way of creating excitement and time gets somewhat limited.  Actually, not really true, time is only limited by the choices we make.  Sometimes I choose everything!

I have quite a few things to blog about and those will start popping up over the next few weeks, but I wanted to give everyone an idea of what has been going on since my last posting and these are not in any particular order.

  • Shopping Trip – An adventure with my mom that brought up the self perception and body image issues in a huge way.  This was actually pivotal for me and my health.
  • Two weeks of running under the guidance of a running coach will be completed this Saturday.  This has been a good thing for me and helps to keep me accountable and focused.
  • Birthdays – The 13th was my Pammi’s birthday and this Saturday is mine.  Happy Belated Pammi!  Chasing you down soon!
  • Social Media – I have been learning a lot.  I have been offered by several people to do social media for their businesses.  So far, I have not jumped on any of these because I really want to focus on my goals.  This is a big choice for me and uncharacteristic.
  • Project put offs – Still fighting with procrastination and overwhelming tendencies.  Lessons are being learned.
  • Single parenting – teenager style.  Unique creatures these teens are and they require special handling.
  • Relationships – I tend to shy away from these things.  They scare me to no end, but I am realizing that one cannot walk through life alone and no matter which way you turn or chose to live, there is a relationship in it somewhere.  I have made some changes.
  • Goals – I have changed and guess what – these are slowly changing as well.  I use goals as a roadmap, but sometimes, you have to change the pathway.
  • Education – Not sure what I am going to do for my Bachelors now.  Too many choices!!  I need help!
  • Church – Our church burned down a while ago and we were floating about like seeds in the wind.  Interesting experiences here as rebuilding goes on and personalities have to come out of the boxes they were stuffed deep inside.  It is interesting to deal with and watch as others deal with their own moralities, values and expectations.
  • Full Circle – A circle has been completed.  Desire as a teenager with overall wellness and here I am back again.  Poetry is back and wisdom is dancing about me.  It feels good to become more me again.  Silly, right?  Important and key.  There is wisdom into being the person you were created to be.  Its okay that I am an odd combination of geek/nerd/popular.
  • Letting God rather than forcing me – I have a hard time not having utter complete control.  My life has entered a chaotic phase, which is actually really good, but painful in many ways.  I realized that I have been trying to force things, rather than live life and accomplish things.  Strange, but interesting thoughts here.  Faith is an interesting companion.
  • Changes in friends lives – There are many changes going on in all of my friends lives.  Our walks are all different, but they are amazing.  I am looking forward to seeing what will happen with this 2013 year.

As you can see, there is a lot going on and a lot to write about.  I need to take a bit of time to really process and walk through the experiences.  Great things are happening and are getting ready to happen.  2013 is going to be an amazing year and we are almost 1/4 of the way through it.  Time passes by so fast sometimes.

I am rolling with life right now, rather than fighting it.  Its important to me that I take every experience and learn all that it has to offer me.  I am determined to not let one crumb hit the floor and be wasted.

Get ready for a ride, because we have a lot to go over in the upcoming weeks before much more starts happening.  Life is at fast and furious right now.  My commitment is to have a moment of quiet time this weekend where I am able to write and get these postings completed.
