discovering who I really am in the midst of a chaotic world
Today's post won't be very long but that's okay. This is just a fun, little tidbit. A happy milestone. 🙂 So remember how I said I wanted to exercise every day? I was completely worn out yesterday so it didn't happen (it's been a crazy week with Job #1). I could've gotten into my head …
I met with Dr. G today. God, I love her. She's so cool & she just gets it. Best of all? She's nonjudgmental. I know that's her job but seriously? It really, really helps. I told her about my weekend & she was really proud of me for recognizing my behavior. We talked about the fight …
Oh, how I love organization, order, & a kick-ass routine! For the past week or so, I've been using this morning & evening routine I created. There's nothing fancy to it. Just your usual getting ready for the day or for bed but I've catered it to my individual needs. I'm starting to hit that …
I'm a firm believer in constantly improving myself. If we don't push ourselves forward, we become stagnant & out of touch. It makes me think of the stereotypical middle-aged parents who try to connect with their teens by using out of date lingo or current lingo in the wrong context. For example, "Mathematics is on …
I can't read that phrase without having Bruce Buffer's voice in my head. Who's Bruce Buffer? He's the guy who announces the main event at UFC fights. His brother, Michael, does the "Let's get ready to rumble!" for wrestling. Sound familiar? If not, just listen to a random Jock Jams song & I'm sure you'll hear …
I'm ready to scream. My chest is tight & it's taking everything in me to hold my tongue & to not lash out at my bosses. Which, let's face it, wouldn't behoove me to do that. 😉 Both of my bosses work on their own time. Neither one is considerate of anyone else's schedule but …
I realized something kinda scary today. At first, I thought I just had some random bug bites, which is weird because I haven't really been outside yet. Then a new thought, a more accurate thought jumped in. I bet this is hives. Fuck. I've been so stressed that my body is freaking the fuck out. …
I went out last night with some friends. We had some laughs, had some drinks, & had a great time. I put on my "Happy SC" mask & stuffed the pain down. With every Old Fashioned I drank, I prayed the ache would fade away. Just slightly would be amazing. After 5 of them, I …
"Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you." - Anne Lamott So I think I'm becoming a hippie. Hear me out. I'm not talking about the 60s, long dreads, afraid of showers stereotype. I'm talking about the connecting back to nature/natural products & pulling away from the "metallic" …
It's a dark & rainy day out, which I just love! Ahh... However, sometimes I enjoy it a little TOO much. This morning, I overslept a little bit. Just by an hour. Nothing to make me crazy late but enough to attempt to derail my morning. Didn't quite realize it's Friday. Whoops! I scrambled out of …
