When I was 8, I started gymnastic lessons. When I was 10, I had to quit.
The reason I quit doesn't keep me up at night; not finishing has.
For 24 years, there's been a tiny piece of real estate occupying the corner of my heart with a sign that reads: unfinished.
Well that's gonna change.
I just got off the phone with a local gymnastics- coach and this Friday, I start private lessons.
I'm coming back, folks & I'm finishing what I started: a successful round-off back handspring.
AND I AM SO EXCITED I COULD SCREAM!
I can't believe this coach is going to work with a no-future, middle-aged mom like me.
And if I wasn't so freakin' excited about this, I think I'd be embarrassed that I'm sharing it with you!
"I don't know about you, but I'm running hard for the finish line. I'm giving it everything I've got."

WOW! You are really living life full throttle! AWESOME! I gotta think your kids are gonna be totally wowed by this too! Truly setting an example for reaching for your potential and never letting a goal die until it's truly over!
Wonderin' are we going to see you round off back hand springin' through the halls of FRC?
Tami - Maybe I can work it into a future teaching - will you be there to catch me if I fly off the stage? :)
thanks for discussing this with me first....:)
BTW, for the right amount of money I'm sure the coach would work with anyone :)
