Hey all! If anyone is still out there, I'm just checking in. I have to sign in on the web now. For some reason, the app no longer works for me. Anyone else having that issue?
So, here's a quick update on all things me.
1) My daughter is all set to graduate college May 5! Praise the Lord, she's almost done!
2) I'm moving full speed ahead on my writing projects. I did take a brief break to write a couple Dark Matter fanfics and recharge (and do have another I'm tinkering with), but am mid-story with a romance for my romance pen name and in the beginning of a story for my horror name. Oh, and I just released a new shorter novel with my pen name a couple weeks ago: The Whirlwind Courtship. Pen name: Kara Abbington.
3) In a sad emotional moment, I had a bad reaction to the hair dye my stylist has been using on me. We're talking red, scabby rash all over the head sort of reaction. Ugh! So, I'm taking the plunge and starting the transition to gray. I may have cried. Seriously, it was super emotional as I've been coloring red since I was 14, with only a brief break when I was pregnant. But, I am sick of paying to color every 5 weeks and am still having issues with losing my hair. My daughter tried to cheer me up by telling me I'll be trendy for a few months as gray is in. Hopefully, it'll stay in for awhile.
4) I've lost just under 45 pounds in the past 2 years and am on my last 22 pounds to hit my 1st goal, the one the dr wants me at. Will reevaluate then. I just started a progressive lifting program to help with muscle loss and may transition into body recomp when I get to goal. That's still at least a year off, however. I'm taking the 1/2 pound a week loss option because I like food! My Fitness Pal has been wonderful! I really like their forums. I've learned a lot.
5) I did sew something this year do far. I made a dress for a friend's little girl.
So that's a very brief update on me!
