Weekly Update and Holidays

Hey my lovely pumpkins!!

Sooooo sorry for being MIA lately!! I'm a really bad blogger lately!
But as I mentioned in my last post, I really do eat almost the same everyday and
nothing interesting is happening around here, so.... Little reason to post...
And since I'm a little lost for words lately - doesn't help much!

I just wanted to let you all know that I'm (semi) OK and even though I'm eating too little
(and the damn scale is not bulging!! How can this be?!!!)
I eat enough for the moment! Even my T said so!
So everything is fine!

Ballet and Jazz is going great!! I feel like I am making so much progress!
Giving up a little controll to maintain the "lightness" of ballet and to let my moves be smoother in Jazz!
I just loooooooooove my teacher so much!! Can't even put this into words!
I'm so happy to have found her! I'm certain that I would not be dancing if it weren't for her!

Hope all of you had a good week?!
I know E and M are doing much better!! And I'm so proud of them!
Karina is putting a smile on my face with each post
and Rebecca (found her blog recently) is inspiring me so much to question and reevaluate!
Thank you soo much for all your posts!! For sharing your story!! It really makes me stronger
and feeling less alone in all of this!!


I don't know if I mentioned this in an earlier post
but I'm away the next week!
We are going to spend a week in our house in France! YAY!!
We have to pick our Quinces before they go mad!
I love to spend time there! It is so quiet and calm!
And I have a huge room for myself to practice ballet and jazz!! YAY!!
I'm going with my mom and a friend of hers! It will be fun!

So no updates [as if that is new ;) ] until next monday!
Have a wonderful week and I look forward in reading all your lovely posts when I return!
I have to say that is the only thing I'm not so happy about...
Not being able to read all your posts for so long!! But I'll manage!! :P

Here are a few recent eats, so that this isn't a text-only post and to give you a little color!! :D

Jenn inspired me (with her latest post) to this lovely dinner on Tuesday!!

pre-workout snack (wednesday if I remember correctly)



pm-snack/pre-workout - half at work

the other half on my walk to practice

And a little more fall colors ;)

even though it was wet

it looked really beautiful - no sound when walking trough the leaves though :(

EDIT: After posting this, I read the ever amazing Karina's new post and discovered that I was taged to contribute to Maggie's Truth Week, which I find is an awesome thing!!

So about my bit of Truth (where should I start?!):

I grew up learning to put everyone else before me!
My dad committed suicide when I was merely at the age of 7,
thus I always thought that I needed to help my mom and not burden her with anything else
and this started a cycle I have jet to come out of!
I don't blame her entirely for this even though she might have given me the urge to do this undeliberately.
[I have no idea if this mad sense at all, sorry for that!]
I am learning to put myself first but it's not an easy task.

I'm tagging E and M today [I don't remember if they posted one already and sorry if so. But as far as I know every day there is a new reason to post one ;)]
And to end this the right way, please take a look at the OCCK-post! Thank you for reading! ;)


All my love to all of you!!! :*

  5. AAW NICOLE, thanks for the mention :D You are such a darling. It makes me really happy that you are progressing in your dance, isn’t it such a great feeling when you accomplish something there? When I land a triple pirouette I feel so high! I love it... ballet is real beautiful.

    You always have the best bars that I have never seen! I really want to try them :( Yummy.

    Your truths are so honest, you are a beautiful and genuine person. I am so glad to have “met” you.
