Working out sucks. I want to love it! I want to be excited. Most days I just convince myself that I won’t like myself if I don’t do it. Yes I have more energy. Yes I know it’s good for me, but I don’t love it #expatlife #quaretinelife #truth https://www.instagram.com/p/CIerVs7DSo3HsvBmtOMIVSmjZ_INKwHHL-9rh80/?igshid=1kguzla0qqyss

Christmas time has arrived in Kuwait. It smells like 🎄

Nothing says holiday time like baking and I love the smell of some gluten free banana bread! https://www.instagram.com/p/CIH6hrkD3lauoR_vxPwANmjoYmVk35WbwC2Is80/?igshid=1mumvssdcngno

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and I was a little melancholy about not having family around, but a long time ago I learned that you make your own family. I got too zoom with my blood and lose terribly at skipbo with my chosen Kuwait family. It was a memorable experience.

10lbs lighter but the workouts still suck. Used an old @findyourfit253 Who put mountain climbers and burpees back to back? #workingoutwiththwindowopen #somepeoplesleepin #didntdie https://www.instagram.com/p/CHeUMRRDRAjEvkHGTzo2rp8cmrFRK4NHEEd8JE0/?igshid=13kncxm1hp648

All the feelings...

I got matching furniture in my office. My boss likes me. Today is Nov 3. I kinda wanna throw up because of election stress. Still I packed my lunch and put on my big girl panties to go deal.
