Since quitting my job, I've spent much more time at home, and it's caused me to fall back into some of my old agoraphobic ways. I really don't like that I'm like this again, considering that I had done a complete 180.

Because of that--and also just wanting to make friends and get out and do things--I've joined some Meetup groups. I haven't gone to any events yet, but I'm going to one this Thursday. It's a tabletop game meetup. (If I enjoy it, I might start going to the Wednesday night ...

I've been to the gym three times (hurt my neck and had to take today off ) but I've already noticed a change in my body. Rob and I have been eating much much healthier. I haven't had anything sugary to drink in over a week, and we've been eating a lot of lean meat and veggies. I've been lifting weights and walking--and even in three visits, I've noticed my endurance is much, much better.

I'm ...

1. Lose 30 pounds or more.
-To do this I am going to eat healthier (which really, anything is healthier than how I've been eating the past week!), and join a gym and exercise. I want to do cardio and strength training with weights. Any advice on exercise would be greatly appreciated!

2. Grow out my hair until it's completely natural.
-This one's pretty simple. Just don't dye my hair! I'll probably cut my hair from time-to-time. My hair is already about two or two-and-a-half ...

So, about a week before I moved to PA, I joined this site that's just for women to make platonic friendships. I recently started talking to this girl, and we have a lot in common, and she invited me out ...

This blog post will be short, but I just really wanted to share this: last week my 4-year-old cousin went to my mom and said, "Aunt Stacie, look! Our skin looks the same!"

My mom sent me this picture that she took of both of their arms:



I just find her innocence very beautiful, and I wish we could all see the world like children do sometimes.

Anyways, I just wanted to share this with everyone.

I really just hate my life right now.

I try not to be whiney, because constantly talking about how unhappy you are is annoying. I try to let the better side of me--my happier side--show through instead. But today is just bringing all of these emotions to a head.

• I hate living with my grandma. I know she doesn't care much for me and my mom, so I feel like I'm under constant scrutiny over every little thing I do. I hate that the room I have is so tiny that
