Life's whirlwinds!
Wow, I can't believe I have been away this long. I am sorry I dropped off the face of the earth, but life got in the way. I have had a really tough time these past few weeks. It was mostly trying to balance school, home and me! Might I add it hasn't gone to well, but I am hanging in there. Amoung everything I was trying to quit smoking, I did good until last week, I just gave up(for now, I promise). Last week was the hardest week of my life. My dad had a sudden stroke. He was doing well then suddenly he took a turn for the worse. Doctors did tests and found that he no longer had any brain function. We ended up taking him off of life support on Saturday. I am doing a whole lot better than last week but I am not all there in my mind. I am trying to get back on track(with normal life). I know it takes time but I don't have much of that with everything else going on. I so hope that didn't come across as bad as it sounded. Needless to say, My fitness has been put on hold for now. I have done very well maintaining despite everything. Not sure but I am probably up a pound or two. It could be a whole lot worse. I miss being on here and reading about y'alls up and downs. I will be back to routine soon, I think that would be for the best. Anyway, I hope all is well with all of you. I have done some checking up on y'all. I apoligize, it may take a while before I start commenting again, But I am thinking of all of ya!
Take care, Ricca
