Thank you Rocky, “It ain't about how hard you can hit. Its about how hard you can get hit, and how much you can take, and keep moving forward.”

I can't believe the walk is less than a week to go!! Holy home strech!!

So far we've helped raised $4,500!! Really that's almost double our team goal. I can't believe that one.

I was reflecting on how this walk is effecting me and how I started this journey one night durning dinner with my Ma in the Bahamama's. I remember we started brainstorming and writing ideas on a napkin. From that one napkin we've unlocked unbelieviable streghten and determination, along with forgivness and acceptance. My parents are growing together and changing the house. It looks so beauitful! It seems simple but I understand change is hard to accept and I am so proud of them.

I can't believe I've had dinner with my sister. I sat next to her for the first time in 13years. I know it set me back emotionally and I feel like I've been closing up again. I can't, I need to push myselt to go forward. I can't wait to spend summer days with her.

My relationship with Mikey has changed completely. I look forward and feel lucky with the time we have together. We no longer fight and I am incredibly happy for him and Tre. They are such a loving happy couple and I can only hope for the best for their marriage.

As for my friends who have supported me, I thank you for your unconditional love and support. It means the world to me. A special thank you is for Laura for providing everything from a shoulder to cry on, drinking wine by campfire and pushing me to write and journal everything everyday. I know my writing isn't as strong as hers, but she has a way with words lady, never forget that. To Lauren, I know your a homebody and that's what I love about you. You've been there since day one and you haven't given up. To Rich, Adam, Christopher,Eric and Daniel who are never far from my thoughts. We've known eachother for way too long.

And to Brendan, for being genuine and incredibly supportive. You've done more than I could ever ask. You desever more credit then you recieve. I would love to explain how much you have helped me, you make me speechless. There is too much to list. Thank you for letting me be a part of your world.

My life has taken a wonderful turn for the best. I don't know what's going to be next but I know this adventure isn't done yet. I know that there is still something bigger and better out there for me and I have yet to find it but I do know a large chapter of my life is going to be closed soon. I don't know what's next but I'm prepared for anything.
