I actually woke up early to go to the gym BEFORE work this morning, which is the first time in a long time. Now I'm grabbing a quick breakfast, iced coffee , and heading to work for the day!
I have to say, I really missed how it feels to be up with the sun and not be scrambling around trying to get ready for work and pack lunch etc in the 10 minutes I usually have between waking up and leaving for work š
Had a quick go on the elliptical this morning, and then some coffee and lunch!
Next is grocery shopping and a walk with Patty and her doggos. PLUS it's a sunny, gorgeous day out on top of it all. :D
reminder: you can start over at anytime. your day is not ruined. your world is not over. take a deep breath. start over.
Adventures in dog-walking:
āļøFinding the last vestiges of winter
āļøBeautiful views of the river
āļøLucy found something putrefying to roll in
āļøI then had to PICK UP said stanky-ass Lucy as some assholes left their excitable dog off leash when they saw us walking with two other dogs and it came rushing at us (she was a youngish looking dog, so not really her to blame, but even after we were standing there CARRYING THE DOGS as the other one was literally jumping on our legs trying to get to them, the owners still didn't even attempt to leash their dog or call her away, it was just a lot of "aw, how cute!" on their end... which was frustrating).
All in all though, it was a lovely 2+ hour walk. :)
Went to the gym last minute tonight (AFTER a 2+ hour walk with my friend and her pups!) and it was fairly close to closing, so I only got a 35 minute workout on the elliptical in. But I pushed myself to go! (or, okay, I made the mistake of getting back from my walk and lying down on my bed and decided I WASN'T going to go, then I asked my s.o. to pick "yes" or "no" to determine my fate... Stefan saw straight through my bullshit and just said "if it's for the gym, yes. Go to the gym." š ) But I went, and that's the important part. š
Burnout, 2018.
Three years ago, my constantly worsening sleep deprivation and stress resulted in a burnout. Iām 30 years old now, at the time of posting this comic, and I still havenāt recovered fully. I still have the heart symptoms - even the smallest amount of stress brings the symptoms back. Itās likely I will never recover enough to work a fulltime job again and I canāt go back to high-stress environments like customer service. But thatās alright. I am more than just my work. Iām slowly learning to be merciful towards myself and to show myself the same kindness I show others, and I think thatās very important.
This is my story and I wonāt be ashamed any more.
Work is slow and lazy today (Iād say tgif, but I have a function at work tomorrow which is going to end up being 3 hours of idle chit chat with people I donāt know and will probably never see again...so yay for that š). We close early to the public on fridays, so we can get big projects done without distraction, and even though my coworker and I will have to stay pastĀ āclosingā to set up for the big event tomorrow, Iām hopefull weāll get done a bit early so I can leave and go shopping. Said big event is apparentlyĀ āactual fancy dressā material, which neither I nor my coworker knew until like two days ago, so I need to find something to wear (I have noĀ āniceā clothes that fit anymore that are appropriate for this type of event, so yaaay for that too) ācause thereās not much in the way of shopping around here. Oh well. Iāll figure something out. I just hate shopping for clothes at this size, it feels so futile lol.
On the bright side, Iām down about 5 lbs in the last two weeks! Slowly but surely. :)
@wildteadrinker and I had a great workout at the gym tonight! Went a half hour on the "arc trainer" (basically like an elliptical) and then another half hour of strength training exercises and then stretches. :) I was super tired and not really feeling the gym tonight when I got out of work, but Alice didn't let me back out! Loving these weekly gym sessions with her ā¤ļøšŖš»
Iām so proud of this! I went on the toughest cardio machine at the gym and stayed on for 30 minutes and burned 446 calories! I even got a new work out buddy to go with me tonight and it looks like tomorrow too! And with @missjojothemighty joining me Wednesdayās weāre going to have a little workout group!
Yaaaas you go Alice!!! And Iām excited for our Workout Wednesdays :D
Also, what app is this?
Hi Heather! I don't know if you remember me, it's been a while since I've really been on tumblr, but I just wanted to pop in and say hi and that I hope you're doing well! You're blog has always been one of my favs on here, and I'm glad to see all the lovely photos of your adorable pets and your walks and all that good stuff. :) <3
Hi hi hi!!!! Iām so glad youāre here and posting again! You were one of my favorite blogs too! Iād look for your posts all the time and could never found anything⦠I thought about you often and have wondered a lot how youāve been! Thank you so much for popping in!
Hah, I donāt mind that you posted publicly instead of replying via message, no worries :pĀ
If you find yourself thinking lately,Ā āI canāt live like this anymore,ā it means you need to change your life sweet soul, not end it. Donāt live like that anymore. Change your thoughts, your focus, your behaviour. If youāre willing to propel yourself into the unknown, give yourself the chance to do so while youāre still here. Rediscover a new life for yourself. Rediscover yourself. Rediscover what it means to be alive.Ā
