Say it how it is. First Kim Sparling - Kim Kuczko "Blog"

Ok. Where to start? I should start by saying that I'm honest. I can be sure that not everyone will agree (or like) what I post all the time. If you are reading my blog for a sugar coated review of my daily life or a sugar coated opinion, you probably shouldn't read my blog. I'm real, I say things that I am thinking and this blog is about me. If you don't want to read it, don't. I was given advice from someone who I respect that a blog would be a great place to document what goes on in my life in attempt to achieve my goals. So here I am, creating blog #1. Kim Sparling's soon to be, Kim Kuczko's, thoughts.

I think if I started to babble about what got me to where I am RIGHT NOW, this first blog could go on and on and ON AND ON... So for now I'm going to keep it a little simple.

I grew up with great parents, both loving and supportive and both athletic. I have one sister, thirteen months younger than I am. In high school my parents separated and I took it hard. I also have a bit of a track record for consciously taking the tougher road throughout my life (so far). When I was eighteen I was diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma (bone cancer) in my right leg. I underwent months of chemotherapy and finally made the decision to have my right leg amputated above my knee in order to survive my cancer. I am now a cancer survivor of 8 years. I fell in love with a great guy that I knew from high school (introduced to me by one of my very best girlfriends) and will be marrying him in two weeks (February 2nd/2013). I am active. If I don't work out, I am grumpy. I genuinely love to sweat and even more than that I absolutely LOVE competition. I am a goal setter and a planner and I am 110% slightly obsessed with being organised. I never let a day pass that I don't stop and count my blessings, I know exactly how lucky I am to be alive. I have recently decided that I want to be a triathlete. By recently I mean within the last year. I have always loved to run, swim and ride a bike, but I mean that recently I have wanted to take all that love of those three sports to a whole new level.

I guess that somewhat sums up the things I will most likely blog about the most, or the things that will relate to what I blog about. If you can relate, please read. If you can't, that's fine too. All I can promise is honesty about MY life.
