I believe they would call this day INDIAN SUMMER! It's bringht, warm, dry and colorful and it's mid October!

Lot's has happened since I last blogged. I have been to Vegas for the Olympia and back and have been trying to get through this transition called life!

Mom ended up in the hospital and it was touch and go for a few days but she is fiesty and she is returning back to normal now...Thanks God! Goal for her is to keep her eating, build some muscle and help her to get stronger for the next bout!!!
As for me...I have been on my quest for the figure stage and this past weekend I ended up in the bed with an intestinal virus...who knows? Maybe this will be good for my figure debut...no eating, lots of "voiding" and a little cardio??? Can't be good for the muscle, right?
Anyway...I am getting excited to go to Kentucky to grace the figure stage to prove that FBB CAN, in fact, do it all!!!!

I was getting a wide variety of feedback at the Olympia when I would tell people of my goals. Lots of people said that if anyone could pull it off it would be me and others said that I will look ridiculous on the stage with "all my muscle"/ So???? Who knows...I guess, just like BB, you have to bring the package you like?? So far I am liking the package...after seeing the top 5 girls at the O I dont' feel "too big"..Gina Aliotti was a great in spiration to me as she has muscular legs and had a hard package at the O...she came in 2nd!!! And she was so beautiful too!!
so...Nicki and Dave will be in KEntucky as he is guest posing Q is going to jin us too so I think it will be a fun time!! Let's just hope this "little bout" of whatever I have that has rendered me eating nothing much but toast hasn't taken away from my physique!!!


This past weekend and the weekend before had Team New ENgland at 2 NPC shows promoted by Dave Follensbee and Maggie Blanchard. They were successful shows and a alot of great talent did show up. I just wished that there were more female bodybuilders out there...there were a few girls who could cross over form other catagories to be BB but are hesitant. I am not sure how else to show that it can be done but to do it...I hope new england is paying attention!!!
I did jump up on stage and guest posed with Evan Cetopani (4weeks formt eh nats) and Mike Wight...that was fun, espeically since I hadn't planned for it. I think we got the audience going though...hopefully that will inspire some ldaies!!??

The Olympia was alot of work but a total blast. Dave "the giant killer" Henry came in the top ten and big props to him for a great year and for showing that the "little/big guys" can hang at the O! Of course the reigning champ and New Englands own, Jay Cutler was a phenominal soecimen and Victor the Dominican Dominator couldn't have been more "ON"! Ronnie Coleman paid his farewell with class to the audience and got the respect that an 8 time champ deserves and the Big Bad Wolf got recognition for being in tip top shape as well. It was a great show and a fun time. Big shouts out to my boi Big Bill Wilmore for making his second trip to the O...he is looking large and in charge and has signed with a new suppliment company; Body Well!!!! Best of luck to him and the company!!!!
