It's okay, I don't know what I'm doing either.
My latest therapy session was a good one. We spent a lot of time talking about simply wanting to feel better and using that as motivation rather than relying on a number on the scale or the size of my pants to dictate my mood. I'm feeling all of my 42 years plus about 10... Continue Reading →
I can breathe for the first time...Just kidding. After about a year's absence I kinda just have to start over here. Here are the major highlights: I started a new job! 🙂 Our dog died. 😦 I restarted and then quit grad school. Again. 😦 I've gained about 20 pounds. 😦 One out of four... Continue Reading →
...has already had quite a few ups and downs. The Ups My dad's store moved to a new location and it is pretty amazing. Nicer and newer with better parking and facilities. It's been a stressful time for him but I think things are finally settling down and falling into place. Hubs had some big/positive... Continue Reading →
Emotional rollercoaster today. It's not something I can explain here. Its just...all the things. Bleh. Life is weird. As mentioned in the title, it's an ungodly hour and momma is up pacing, nervous as a cat. #1stdayofkindgergarten Last day of daycare today for kiddo. Teary pickup. Last long commute home with her. Not so teary,... Continue Reading →
In a few months I'll be "running" in my second half marathon. I use the word running loosely because I walked the majority of the one last year and while I plan to run most of this second one, I am not above walking parts of it as well. Ain't no shame in walking my... Continue Reading →
I "ran" 5 miles last night for the first time ever. Longest distance at one time so far. I say "ran" because it was very slow and I had to walk some too. But I'll take it regardless. It was pretty hilly considering what I'm used to. And then I did a stupid thing. I... Continue Reading →
So, I've been doing this running thing since about mid-May of this year. I've done this before, starting running (well, walking first until I could jog without dying) and kept at it for a bit and then something or other distracted me or I got discouraged and gave up. But here I am three and... Continue Reading →
Dressing room lights are severely unforgiving. As in, they should be illegal. Making the workout pants I purchased all the more necessary. The dog will always have to go out to pee as soon as I've sat down to feed the baby. The key to world peace....nitrous oxide. Who wouldn't get along while chilled out... Continue Reading →
This weekend was a great one and I'm sad it's over. All the hoopla from the holidays is behind us and now we descend into whatever our "normal" happens to be. I'm none too thrilled about that but I'm trying to be a more positive thinker and am going to make my best attempt to carry... Continue Reading →
You know those women who claim to love their new post-childbirth-bodies? The ones who expound on the beauty and utility of their new boobs and maintain that they have embraced their stretchmarks as some honorable "badge of motherhood"? I am not one of those women. And those women are obviously lying. I'm just sayin'. I agree with these... Continue Reading →
