My cocoon

I've been saying for a while that I feel like I'm going through a metamorphosis. The last 3 years has been one hell of a journey! But it isn't over yet.

As my body has changed, and I've gained confidence from my time in the gym, I've become more interested in the girly stuff that I couldn't be bothered with before.  A few months ago someone introduced me to Jamberry nail wraps, and I'm hooked. Nail polish has never held up well for me, it chips within minutes...but Jamberry nails last about a week. Now I feel weird if i have naked nails. All my gym gear (lifting belt, kick boxing gloves, lifting straps, etc) is a bright pink. I laugh and tell people its so if I drop something, Superman knows it is mine and can return it to me.

I am looking forward to warmer weather, and being able to shop for clothes. Even though I'm 40 now, I could pass for late 20s, so I'm going to take full advantage. Superman says I have really nice legs, so this is going to be the summer I wear all the cute stuff without worry.

I feel like the love and support from Superman and JC is definitely helping my transformation. I'm so unsure about how the world is going to react to the new me as I emerge from my cocoon, and those two could not be more supportive.
