I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

Apologies. For some reason I thought kidsoftheblackhole was the OP and had since changed the subject.

Sorry guru, I just thought squatting would build bigger arms because people kept saying it works your whole body.
