I’ve realized that much about being needy is about letting the control go. It is what it is, and what will happen will happen. So letting all that goodness around me percolate lets the neediness go. Much much less needy. And so much happier for that.

So the last time I wrote about this was a long time ago. And you know what? I’ve lost even more weight. I think it’s about 40lbs more to far. I’m definitely the thinnest I’ve ever been in my life. More energy, more neck, less chin, less tummy, more belt holes. And even still, more skinny girl clothes. My shoes are once again too big. That’s still a weird one for me. Shoes too big. I’ll take it though.
The thing about N. America is there are very few racing tracks where folks can take their cars, or even just go and drive the cars there, on a real professional racing track. The proper cambering, the curbs, the speed. It’s all there. And safe, not on the street.
I really really want to do this. All of it. And then just the F1 version.
