First off, NO I'm not pregnant.
Okay
I've been wanting to do something for a long time now. Five and a half years to be exact. Two years ago, I got semi-serious and last year I got REALLY serious and finally started the work. I've been living a double life of sorts, spending my extra time on this project and sneaking away twice a month to meet with my 'support group.' Its been a really fun and rewarding project. And I'm really anxious for my friends and family to know about it.
But I'm not going to tell you right now.
So why wave this tantalizing bit of information in your face, only to keep it out of your reach? Partly to drive people crazy. {like my mother who always has to tell me when she's bought me a present, but won't clue me in on what it is} That's fun for me.
But mostly, I'm telling you for myself. Accountability. This project took longer and was harder than I ever expected it to be and I want it finished!!! I told myself I wouldn't tell anyone until it was done. So, here's the deal. You out there in the blog world need to keep me on track.
I'm making a goal here and now, to have the work finished by the end of May.
{Insert me freaking out right here}
This is a BIG goal for me. Can I do it? I really don't know. This scares me to death, but I need to do it.
So, on the last day of may, I will post again and fill you in on my accomplishments, and reveal the big secret to you.
What I don't want you to do: Don't pester me to tell you what it is, because I'll give you the dorky, I'm-about-to-crack face, and I'll be pretty upset if I do crack.
Don't guess at what it is. If you are one of the few people out there who know, respect the secret. For my own sake. Please.
What you can do for me: encourage me. Tell me you're excited to hear my secret. That'll jazz me up.
Then, when I finally tell everyone, act VERY excited. Because it is a big deal to me. Strike that, it is a humongous, spectacular deal to me. So even if you don't really care, pretend that you do. Because by the end of May when this part of the work is finished (notice the when--positive thinking starts right now) I'll still have a ways to go, and I'll need all the help and positive vibes I can get.
So, I hope I've bugged you just enough, and that you're as excited as I am for the big reveal!
Now--I've got LOTS of work to do, so if you don't see me on my blog for a while, you'll know why (well, sorta)
Love
Tahsha
