Guest guest Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Colleen, Thank you for your reply. It sparked a fire under me to seek out people who model the idea of an active fun person who have found balance in their life. This has proven to be somewhat difficult in my current social and professional circle but I have found a few (and my partner is one of them! yay!)and I plan on sticking with them!
