And...We're Back!

-

It's time to get busy.   Time to join the fight again, and get back to what I have been working for.

Tomorrow is a big day.   Tomorrow I register.   Tomorrow it's real.    Crap.   What have I gotten myself into.  

Fear is the one thing that can stop me.   It's stopped me in the past, but I will NOT let it now.  I've come too far, and the prize is too close.

I feel so far from the path, but am ready to get on again.     Time to jump on the wagon and enjoy the ride even if I feel like puking.

What "After" Looks Like

I went to the gym today. Again. It’s been a while.    And I always feel a little dread when I know a workout is going to be hard.    But I went.    AGAIN.   And even though I haven’t been in a while it never occurred to me that I wouldn’t go back.    That even though I have gained a little or lost a little or whatever, that no matter what, no matter how long has passed, no matter how much I know it might suck, I ALWAYS go back. And   I had a little light bulb moment that has been brewing in my head for a while. I belong to a great gym.    Anytime Fitness in Liberty is awesome.    I love the staff, my trainer who I have been with for several YEARS is there and he rocks.    I have friends I can always count on for a hello when I am there…..    It’s great.    And I have very little to complain about except this. Before and Afters.    Corporate gyms alwa...

Hi Dad....

Hi Dad. Well, it’s been a year since you left.    That almost seems incomprehensible to me.    That it’s been a year since I heard your voice, or gave you a hug, or listened as you told a really bad joke….    It seems impossible. It seems impossible that for 365 days I have walked this planet without you to call on.    I miss you so much. We’re all a year older, and so many little things have changed.   The kids’ lives have changed, as have their interests.    We’ve travelled some, and already have plans to take mom on some trips next year.    Don’t worry, we aren’t leaving her at home.  We're getting her out.  :) It’s been a bit of a challenge learning the new normal.    We’ve all moved ahead, and although it seemed impossible a year ago, we had birthdays, and holidays, and dinners.    We added a new baby…..and have ANOTHER coming soon.    And through it all...

Sometimes a Reminder is All We Need

I started a journey 12 weeks ago.    A journey for me.    A journey to be the best me I can be. And today I am struggling.     I’m struggling because the world has gone crazy and I don’t understand what is going on.     I am struggling because 12 weeks of success makes me worry about when the week with no success will come.     I worry about my kids.    I worry about my husband.    I worry about my mom, and I miss my dad.   My mind is racing.     I’m worried, and scared, and because of this, I want to veer from my path. All this time, my mind has been in a good place.    My focus on what is important has been strong.    Today I’m struggling. For some reason, all the old fears have crept in a little tonight.    The voice that doesn’t believe in me has reared it’s ugly head, and for a short time I have been listening.    “This won’t ...
