And now I am not

Welcome to the madness :) 

I've been contemplating starting a blog for about a year now, but couldn't quite get the motivation to get started. So here we go! 

Basically, to make a long story short: 

I was married for over 26 years and now I am not! 

I was in the worst shape of my life, I weighed just about 300 pounds and was borderline diabetic and now I am not.

I was suffering from horrible perimenopause symptoms and literally had lost the will to live and now I am not. 

And that, my friends, pretty sums it up. So why a blog, you ask? To have a place to vent, share my experiences, celebrate myself and others and to help us navigate our way in this crazy world we live in. I hope to connect with women who are in similar situations, who are also trying to figure out life after, who are looking to get healthy, kick menopause's ass, to find the gifts that are hidden inside us and most importantly to learn to live each day to its fullest.

So, sit back, open your minds and get ready to get real. I look forward to turning the page to the next chapter of my life with you :)
