Not my first blog post

So.

You might have noticed that I changed my Facebook page… and my Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest accounts… from skinnyshae to “Biceps and Belly Rolls” (or shaevins because the other one is too long).

Why?

I started skinnyshae in 2010 in an effort to keep writing when all I could look forward to was a career without a lot of writing — I graduated around the same time as all the newspapers I would have worked for were laying off and offering only contract or unpaid positions.

And a girl’s gotta get a paycheck, yo.

Now, it’s 2017. In seven years, a lot has changed in my life.

Like, obviously.

I’m far less concerned with fitness, exercise and dieting… and my eyebrows… than I used to be. I’m far more concerned with health, wellness and all. the. food.

I’m less concerned with the way I look… and more concerned with the way I feel.

I’m also way less concerned about myself and completely, totally, absolutely obsessed with him.

Because who wouldn’t be?

I outgrew skinnyshae a while ago, but it’s been only recently I figured out what I grew into…

I’m a mom, a wife, a writer, a work-a-holic — and I’m working on that — and, now, I’m writing about Biceps and Belly Rolls.

Because I’ve got both, folks.

(Well, I’m still working on my rockin’ biceps. The heavier that baby gets, the beefier my arms get.)
