My Future Vision

Day 14

In my mind's eye I can see the day when me and my girlfriends can shop at the same stores. Most of them don't realize that they don't sell my size at Ann Taylor Loft, The Gap, The Limited, New York & Co. or Banana Republic. When I wear something cute and they ask where I got it, I'm embarrassed because my answer is usually the same "Lane Bryant... they don't sell your size there." I'm at least six months away from achieving that dream.

So, for now, I'll concentrate on a more short term goal. In March, I will be at the races in Bristol. We camp at Race Day Center and there is a HUGE hill that I've always dreamed of climbing. I'm not talking about the hill from the street to our campsite. While it is big and generally makes me feel bad about myself, it's nothing compared to this hill. To me it might as well be the highest peak in Bristol.

Anyway, I've always wondered what the view from the top of that hill would be like at sunrise. I've got an awesome papparazzi camera and I want to hike to the top of it and take pictures. My friend Brian, who will be there too, got a paparazzi camera for Christmas. Perhaps he'll go with me. I'm fairly certain that none of the rest of my crew will much feel like getting up before the crack of dawn to scale a mountain. I probably won't either. But, that won't keep me from doing it. Torrential rains might make for crappy pictures. If so, I'll save the dream for when we go back in August. :)

I've got plenty of time to build my endurance. And, I'm going to be getting a little help from my wonderful husband. He has bought me a Wii Fit Plus for Valentines Day. Between Wii, Jillian Michaels, my treadmill and weights... I should be all set.

Cheers!
