Great feeling
After more than a week away from the elliptical, I got back on it tonight and I’m just dead, but I feel so good. I need to remember this feeling tomorrow night. It’s way too cold to go outside (- it’s -30 C [don’t know the F degrees] but believe me, it’s dawm cold. Want a proof? Sandy escaped from the house this afternoon…instead of just running away, she rushed back in the house. LOL ) Actually, my boyfriend and I went for a walk last night and we were alone in the streets. We mostly ran instead of walking since it was too cold. Sandy liked it (running)…. but running is way too hard for me. lol
A friend congratulated me that for once in my life, I stood up and said outloud how I felt (see Friday post). I’m usually the nice quiet girl who puts everyone else infront of her needs and I’m the one after who ends up hurt - which is the main reason why I eat. So I said what i had on my mind and I was shock to find out that it’s true, I was able to move on.   I said that this year I wasn’t going to take any sh** from anyone. People who didn’t believe me, well, now they do :)  I’m turning 30 this year and apparently, it’s a normal process in the 30-crisis… Anyone who went through that crisis could confirmed it?
Talk to you later!
Oh that Sandy, so funny that she ran back in the house. I also have a dog and he is a tiny thing, a little italian greyhound so he has no body fat. When we go out and it’s even slightly chilly he is shivering he has to wear his sweater or coat! Congrats on the realization that you come first, who has time for friends like that anyway. I agree I had a similar thing happen to me recently. A good friend since the 7th grade is getting married soon, and what does she do, book her wedding on the same day as my sisters wedding which I’m in. Now for some background, we were BF’s for the longest time, with age grew slightly apart due to different work schedules etc. she was even a bridesmaid in my wedding just 3.5 years ago. Now she’s getting married to some dude she’s been with for about 8 months, and books everything on the day she know’s I cant attend. Was it a coinsedence that this was the only date she could get? Doubt it. I know it’s probably not that important to her that my presence be made on her big day, but apparently I thought more of her than she thinks of me. So needless to say I wont be attending the wedding and I may just have another obligation if a bridal shower invite comes my way. So just goes to show we all have girlfriend “DRAMA”! Hang in there girl your doing great and who needs friends with diarrhea of the mouth. She shouldn’t have been telling someone something you confided in her not to say. Have a good night!
I wish there was a way to record how great it feels to do the elliptical. Good job and getting back to it!
