Day 1

Today is day 1 of my work out progress start of my blogging. I've never been on of those "before and after, here's my journey to new healthier me" . But here I am..  about to blog about my journey to working out being healthy and getting skinnier. 

First of all... I am not doing this for any other reason but to fit into my wedding dress. I seriously loath working out. I don't mind sweating but it's not something I look forward to doing. I try to avoid sweating at all cost.  I don't wake up at the ass crack of dawn on my own.  I barely wake up in enough time to shit shower and get to work on time. I look forward to lunch the minute I clock into work and can't wait till its 5pm. I've become a complete home body. I don't like to get into anything other than comfy pants and a tshirt the instant I get home. I don't watch a lot of TV but i do utilize my cellular device... a lot. My cell phone is always in arms length. In fact I am blogging on my cell phone while taking a rather rough poop.

Day 1
I somehow found motivation to wake up at 5 am to get ready to go the gym. Ha don't get me wrong... I most certainly stayed in bed till 530am. That latest I could stay in bed without being too terrible late to the gym. I arrived at 6am with my fiance in tow. I followed my fiance around like a little puppy and did everything he showed me to do. We've worked out together before but this time... I mean business. Wedding dress wedding dress wedding dress!!! As I make my way around the gym I noticed that I am the only person that is still half asleep. These 5 am-ers are for real. Guess I better step my game up. Lol. I'm new to lifting and I don't like to do it alone because I feel like if I attempt to do it alone I'll hurt myself or just look stupid doing it "wrong". Gym ppl are no joke. So today was rough. I think I have a broken rib... or its just gas. Crossing my fingers it's just gas. I hope my ' broken rib ' doesn't prevent me from not making it to my second day of serious working out. Wish me luck.

I’m really struggling with watching my parents grow older. My mom’s memory has declined a lot, and walking has become difficult for her. She’s not active anymore—she mostly stays at home, only doing small chores around the house. She has very little motivation to do anything beyond that. My dad takes care of so much for her, and I try to keep her going by spending time with her, but our conversations feel so different now. As for my dad, his health is okay—not great, but manageable. I’ve mentioned before how hard it is to watch him face the physical limitations that come with age. He’s always been the kind of dad who could do it all—fix anything, carry anything, help with anything. He’s been my rock, always there to support me. I don’t think he ever imagined he’d still be helping his 40-year-old daughter with Jeep mods—but knowing him, I’m sure he secretly loves it. My dad and I are both facing new health challenges right now. I’m scared—but thankfully, mine isn’t life-threatening, as...

Cultivating relationships

Maintaining relationships demands effort; it's a mutual journey. Each party contributes, and amidst this exchange, bonds form—be it friendships or deeper connections. Some relationships necessitate more investment; sometimes, it feels like you're carrying the weight alone, striving to sustain the connection. Personally, I've struggled with nurturing friendships; perhaps due to youthful ignorance, where life felt boundless, consequences seemed distant, and self-centeredness prevailed. As age brings maturity, many friendships naturally drift away amid life's chaos and the challenges of adulthood. Reflecting on my past interactions often astonishes me; how did I manage any healthy relationships back then? Truthfully, I didn't. Those who I once considered friends, or who considered me as such, have vanished, leaving behind only fragmented memories—thanks, memory loss. Although forgetfulness might seem a blessing, the impressions we leave behind persist. This notion unne...

2025

Another year has come and gone, and here I am—mid-January already. Christmas was spent with family, as always. The holidays tend to be chaotic, rushing back and forth across town to visit everyone. 2024 was truly a memorable year for me! So many milestones to reflect on: I turned 40. I participated in two amateur horse shows. I earned my motorcycle endorsement. (I conquered the Twisted Sisters route on my motorcycle!) My brother bought a new house (so proud of him—just waiting for a new sister-in-law now!). I celebrated my 10-year wedding anniversary.  And I hit my 2-year mark with my company. It’s been a year of highs and some lows, but I think the highs outweighed the lows—or maybe I just blocked the lows out entirely (I do have a knack for that, haha!). While my memory isn’t quite where I wish it was, I’ve been making an effort to shake things up and challenge myself with new activities. It feels good to break out of the routine and keep my mind sharp. I’ve started gaming recent...
