NEDAW ~National Eating Disorder Awareness Week
I'm sorry it's been forever but I'm back and I'll try to keep up with this blog now! My life is starting to slow down a bit...it's still crazy but I've learned how to deal with it now! Haha.
So this week is National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. I'm a big supporter to anyone who is looking for help with eating disorders. It's something that always seems to go unnoticed...but it's out there and it's a dangerous thing. It's something that needs attention and that is what this whole week is about. Every day is something different and you can participate in it if you would like. Today is all about spreading the awareness. I'm going to post some pictures with information about eating disorders for this post. If you or somebody you know are dealing with an eating disorder, please find help. I know it's hard and I know it's scary but you really can live a happy and healthy life. I know it :) I love you all!

Random thoughts....
What a crazy month this past month has been and what a roller coaster it's been. I love roller coaster moments in life. They may be crazy, but they are worth it in the end...at least for me. They help shape me more when I go through those roller coaster moments. Yes, they can be exhausting and frustrating and hard, but they are needed in my life and I don't know who I would be without those roller coaster moments. This past month I've thought a lot about this family I was close with that moved back in February. I didn't realize how much they meant to me until this month when I needed them most. I love and care for that family and always will! Stott family...you guys are amazing and I can't wait to see you all again! Love you guys. Well that's enough of me rambling on I guess. I'll get to those quotes.
"It's time now to let go of the past and embrace all that awaits you!" -Unknown
"You can erase someone from your mind easily, but getting them out of your heart is another story." -Ritu Ghatourey
"Thanks for the friendship, thank you for the smile. Thanks for the love you showed even though it was only for a while. True my heart was broken, my eyes did cry. But the pain is all over now cause I have learned to say goodbye." -Unknown
"The future is what we make of it, not what someone says it will be. Our lives are not predestined by fate, or set down in a book, or determined by a set of cultural rules, animal signs, or movement of the stars. The future is not written for us. We must write it well." -Unknown
"You're alive for a reason. If you don't know that reason yet, keep living to find it." -Unknown

Tough Times Will Come
This week has been a really hard one for me. All since Monday I have really been shook up and I haven't really been myself. First off...I feel bad to any of my friends, family and to my boyfriend for having to deal with me the past couple of days. I've been a wreck. I know it. I'm beating myself up inside and it's made things even worse. I'm sorry to all of those who may be feeling like I don't like them or that I'm just mad at them or something. I'm not. I promise you. I am not angry towards anyone but myself. I'm trying to switch gears a little and start being happier...it just takes time. Thank you to all of you who have told me they understand and are patient. Andrew, if you ever read this...I know I've been a little vague with you this week and I apologize for that. Don't worry. I want you to know I love you. You have done nothing wrong and I don't want you to even think you have. This is all me trying to figure my life out. I've been overwhelmed and I'm sorry if you think I'm pushing you away...I'm not trying to. I love you.
Okay...sorry that got a little personal but it needed to be said. Like I said it's been a hard week. I have been tearing myself down and it kind of spiraled out of control in my head. Here are just some quotes about feeling bad...but they are "pick me up" quotes. I hope you like them and find one that helps you out in the situation you are in.

Bring on the changes
With it being the first week into the new year, we all make plans to be better. I know my life this year will be changing so much. Everything I have been given in the past, it soon can all be taken away. Things I have never done before, I'm starting to do them (like dying my hair!!! Yup, did that, finally. :D) I'm making a change in myself and in my life this year. Some changes are intentional and we choose to change our lives. Some changes we have no control over. This new year, I know my life will be changing. This year is one of the most important years in my life as I start to plan for my future, which just happens to be a huge fear of mine. I wish you all luck as your lives change and I hope you all had a great time over the holidays. Love you all, on to the quotes!
