My Love/Hate Relationship With Blogging.

I LOVE the idea of blogging about my life and all the things in it that i enjoy. I HATE actually doing it. I'm searching for some motivation and also some vulnerability to just be able to say whatever i want without hesitation. I need to figure out the direction in which i want this blog to go. I have a lot on my mind right now and I'm getting very excited..I am co-choreographing a "hoop piece" for the upcoming  Jagged show which is super exciting for me.I've had to basically "sit on the bench" if you will, since my shoulder injury a few months back and it's been killing me to not be working on performances with the rest of the gals.Here are some photos from the Jagged show back in March:

I am so excited to get to perform again and hopefully soon resume my aerial practice.

On to other news, for those of you who know me well, you know i had bigger plans before i found out i was having my babies. I found my old notebook with my business plan in it from when i was going to start my own vintage/thrift business. I am currently researching ways to make this dream a reality. Unfortunately for me, i do not have all the time in the world so this will be a long,slow process but i know i am meant to do more than take care of  babies.-which might i add, i will be doing for the rest of my life any way so i might as well start figuring out my path as well. I am open to any and all advice.I am going to bring out my sewing machine and try to find some motivation. I am super bummed though because after the boys were born i thought i would never get to wear any of my vintage clothes any more and sold most of my collection. i'm not worried though. i've always had a good eye and i've been thrifting since as long as i can remember. My mom who claimed to be an "antique dealer" would take me on her scouting adventures. i tell ya what if OMG had been around back then, my mom would have made a killing! She has an eagle eye for vintage things. I remember playing hooky back when i was in school and my mom would take me on adventures to yard sales and thrift stores and how i realized at an early age how cool it was.Not only do you get the chance to reuse (& in turn recycle) clothing and home goods but you have the character that came along with the pieces. I knew a long time ago this would be my calling and it's just taken some time to realize i can do this and be a mama. I may need some encouragement and help along the way but i am more than ready to start taking baby steps toward where i want to be.
