An introduction, I suppose.

At this point, this blog is only public-ish.
It's open for viewing, but I'm not like, announcing it to the world or anything.
There are a couple of reasons for this.

1. I still have another blog. At this point, I am unsure of what I want to do. Do I want to just stay at my old blog and write about this stuff there? Or do I want to start fresh? I'm leaning towards the latter, but it feels a little weird. I've been using my old blog for 5 years, I think...Though, I haven't actively used it in quite some time, which is what leads me to believe that it is time to move on.

2. This thing is ugly as can be! It's basically an abomination to the blogging world. I think I will probably feel much more comfortable rolling the ol' girl out, when she looks as good as I imagine her to look.

I guess before I was a "mom blogger."
I don't even know exactly.
What I do know is that blogging hasn't been fun for me for a long time, and I think I'd have to attribute that to not feeling like I had anything interesting to say. Um, not that my kids aren't interesting, because they are. BUT I know that, really, they only fall under the "most interesting things ever" category for me, my husband, and a select few other people. So, having a blog that (I feel) has become mostly a space for sharing their lives, feels a little much at this point.
I kinda felt like I couldn't write about other things?
I guess I just think that if I have a fresh space, and say outright, "Hey, this is where I write about fitness, fashion, and life in general...." I'll feel better about blogging about those things.
Obviously I'm a big, giant weirdo, but if you're going to stick around you're probably just going to have to get behind that.

So, Fit + Fancy.

I've actually been sortofbloggingbutnotreally under that name on tumblr for a few years now. Like, four, I think? Maybe 3.5. I don't really write much. Mostly it's just for sharing photos I find inspiring, and the occasional random funny thing that has nothing whatsoever to do with fashion or fitness.
But I kind of started realizing, "This isn't helping..."
I mean, clearly, right? I've been there 3-4 years now and still haven't done what I set out do (lose weight, really start loving myself).
So my thinking is that, maybe, if I start actually writing about this and talking it out, MAYBE that will make it more real, more important to me.

This is so rambly. Yeesh.
Again, get on board or get out, people!
