a year of me

it's a new year.
a time for new beginnings.
a time for a new focus.
and i have just the thing.

my desire to be the best supergirl i can be, in every aspect of life, is strong. i want to show my daughter that she can do anything she puts her mind to. and the best way to do that is to lead by example.

i was invited to join some friends in doing a race/obstacle course called the superhero scramble. it's intimidating. i'm out of shape. i haven't worked out in months. it's in july, though, so i have 7 months to train and prepare.

the biggest hurdle for me might be climbing a rope. i've never been able to do it, even going back to grade school. i just don't have the upper body strength. if i could change that, if i could build up my muscles enough to get through that obstacle, i know it might be the validation i need to finally believe that yes, supergirl, you can do anything.

i'm going to try it. i want to try it.
i want to make me a better person. physically, emotionally, mentally, financially.
i want to do it for my daughter.
i want to do it for me.
i want to make 2013 all about me.
