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.

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...

I'm being selfish

This week has been a whirlwind of emotions that I struggle to articulate. Attending the funeral of a childhood friend's father, who passed away unexpectedly, opened floodgates of nostalgia and sadness. We shared a bond through our mutual love for horseback riding, receiving our first ponies almost simultaneously. While we've drifted apart as adults, the news hit me hard. Our parents, similar in age and pursuits, faced the unimaginable loss of a husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. Witnessing my friend's grief and contemplating my own future in their shoes brought tears of empathy and fear. The inevitability of losing loved ones, a reality we often push aside, looms ominously. Reflecting on my relationship with my family, I realize how it's evolved over the years. From distant ties to a profound dependency, I now find solace and support in them daily. When my father suffered a heart attack, I was thrust into a surreal state of emotional numbness, only to cr...
Wow, it’s been a while since my last post in April! This year has been a whirlwind—it’s incredible how time flies. Big milestone: I turned 40! I still can’t believe it. I don’t feel 40, though; my mind says 20, but my body sometimes feels 70. 😅 I was lucky to celebrate with my family and closest friends, and my parents surprised me with my very first Louis Vuitton. She’s stunning! I also completed my MSF course, which means I can legally ride my motorcycle now! I recently took my Triumph Bonneville T120 on its first solo ride to work. It was nerve-wracking but exhilarating, and I’m hooked! My next dream bike is the Triumph Scrambler, so I can join my husband on some dirt road adventures. Unfortunately, I got hit with a really bad bug and was in bed for a week, which wiped out all my PTO for the year. This year marked our 10th wedding anniversary, and my parents gifted us a trip to Italy! With no more PTO left, we’ve had to push it to next year, but honestly, I feel good about having ...
