It has been a rough year. Lots of ups and downs, but lots of travel.
I have been training for my MS ride. There is still time for people to donate if they want to. Even $10 is something. It all adds up. My girlfriend has had her ups and downs with the disease, but she seems to be doing better. She will be able to ride. I hope that she will be well in Sept. It is towards the end of Sept and is based out of SF and then goes through wine country. It will be a pretty ride and I will be riding in a group of really close friends.
I want to thank everyone that did send donations. This ride is close to my heart because it happened to my best friend. I can express how grateful I am.
I have been trying to focus on my work, clip stores, etc. It has been overwhelming.
Being single again has been rough. I have had a lot of people going for the chase, but I am just not interested. I met a man who I developed some feelings for, but I guess it’s not meant to be. I put myself in a vulnerable position and got my heart stomped on.
Thank goodness for friends. I am fortunate to have so many friends who truly are friends and who have been wonderful to me. I would do anything for any of them, and through these hard times, it has helped knowing that I have this solid foundation.
I am hurting right now, but I will be able to get through this. I guess that is why this blog has suffered so badly.
I will be gone this weekend but will try to write before my trip to Paris on the 2nd. I fly to Atlanta that day and then the next day I will catch a plane to go to France. I know I should be excited, but I guess the sadness is pretty major. I am going to try and snap out of it and enjoy myself, but sometimes I wish I could just shut myself out from the world and just lock myself up.
I know it is just talk and I know that I am tough. I know I can get through this. The truth is I got some bad news and I am not sure what my life span will be.
I realize that this is live and that it is probably way to personal to be printing in a blog but I just had to get it off my chest. Please no emails asking me what it is. I would rather not talk about it.
Therefore, that being said…I am going to live my life to even more than the fullest that I have been. We all die, but when is always the big question.
I thank you all for being there for me and for being a fan. I will continue to thrive as much as I can in the business. I love all of you guys for supporting me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Love,
Tomiko
