i feel so much pressure to come up with titles for these posts... in protest, i'm not naming this one

it occurs to me that i've been so caught up in the crappy stuff that i've been doing since i turned 30 that i've hardly acknowledged all the good stuff i've done. here's a list, in no particular order:

• started doing yoga/pilates and exercising on a regular basis
• started flossing more
• stopped eating/drinking anything containing aspartame (this is a big one, i used to be SUCH a diet coke freak)
• started trying to eat less processed foods
• seriously contemplated wearing SPF on a daily basis (seriously, i'm going to start soon)
• stopped caring so much what everyone else thinks
• started keeping this journal
• let go of a lot of my unrealistic ideals
• became more comfortable in my own skin
• started collecting purses (no, it's not lifechanging, but it's a new aspect of my personal style)

i'm not saying that the above things at all make up for my other issues, i'm just trying to point out that there is some aspect of balance in my world... (as precarious as it may be)
