Thank you for the tip on hair loss/biotin :) You'll have to let me know if it winds up helping you. So far, I still have a thick head of hair but I'm sure that won't last at the rate I keep losing!

Hi Nic,
Thank you so much for the embrace. Today's challenge was a legal issue, I had to go to court. Nothing criminal, but a long standing issue I've been wrestling with for almost 20 years now, and today we had our first hearing. It was pretty awful, and I don't feel so great, but I know I will be OK.
While I sat in the waiting room, I said my prayers over and over again.
However it turns out will have a big impact on my family financially, so it is stressful, but no child will die. It's just one of those hard things.

Hey- thanks for checking in with me! I'm fine here, just extremely busy sewing dresses for wedding and prom...

I saw your progress. Way to go!! Seriously, you have reminded me of what's possible.

I'm still looking for whatever it is that is allowing me to flounder, but I will track the bugger down and conquer it. Seriously. I'm working on a sustainable exercise/eating plan for myself. One of these days I will make you proud!

Take care and keep up the good work!

Heya!

Thanks for the comment on my blog! Yeah yesterday was NOT a good day and working out didn't make it better which was a complete shock. Today is better just because it's sunny out. I'm trying to get to a good place and when the weather is warmer and the sun is out, it's easier. Hopefully I will have time today to just surf Spark and grab some motivation from people, lol!

Have a good one!!
