So I took a long hiatus...

I'm a firm believer in the fact that life is like a roller coaster; some years are good and some are not so wonderful. 2009 was a downward loop in the world of Miss Avery. I think it's easy to get so caught up in things that are bad for you...overeating, too much alcohol, or even a person. In 2009 I allowed myself to be consumed by someone who brought little or nothing to my life that was positive. Coming to the realization that so many around me had tried to share was difficult. There were many hurtful interactions between myself and this person...and I mainly began to feel like I was only a sliver of my former self.

I made a big decision in June of last year...that I was going to force myself off the couch...and after 10 years of little or no physical activity, I joined a gym and got myself a personal trainer. What an amazing transformation this has caused within me. I finally like what I see just a little bit better than I have in a very long time. But more importantly, I am more content with my insides as well. Letting go of the bad was not easy, but I'm well on my way to being a much better me.
