(The Title)....That's kind of what I feel like I should be writing tonight but honestly, I don't have a whole lot to say and I haven't really gained any new insight today.
The day has been a good one and I'm hoping that tomorrow will finish out the dreaded holiday weekend as a good one. I definitely wasn't looking forward to Thanksgiving but I'm thankful that it's been a non-stressful and busy weekend. I haven't had a lot of downtime to overthink things and I'm appreciative for that.
Today my mom, daughter, and I went tubing at a local ski resort. I really hate the cold weather but if I'm out being busy in it then I don't mind it as much. Tubing was fun and it was great that my mom got to get out & enjoy herself as well. Seeing everyone on the slopes really made me miss snowboarding so much! My daughter wants to learn how to do that or to ski so I told her I'd keep my board, boots, & bindings for this season & I'd take her for lessons at some point. I could probably use a few myself since I haven't been out for a couple seasons. Anything to keep kids active these days is okay by me.
Per a conversation last night at dinner (and some past yearning to want to do something more intensive than training at the gym) I think I'm going to look into Krav Maga classes. I still need to learn more about it but the fact that it's set up for smaller people is appealing. I'm a big fan of MMA in general so anything of that sort would be a lot of fun for me to get in to. Hopefully that'll be something new on my list of things to do.
Tomorrow is the last day of break and then Monday it's back to the grind. I'm going to get my eating schedule back on track and of course it's back to the gym. Three days a week now with my trainer instead of two so at least Monday isn't a cardio day! I think we may just go bowling for one last fun event before my daughter has to go back to school too.
So today has been a success for sure. I've been busy & my mind hasn't wandered anywhere it really shouldn't have for more than a minute or so at a time. I'm relaxed, tired, and really just ready to crawl into bed and do some reading for the night. Here's to successful days that pass without a second thought. Cheers.
Things that made me happy today:
1) Putting my snow gear on and getting to go tubing. I missed the "swish swish" of my snow pants and if I can't have flip flops & the beach then being on the slopes in some form would probably be next on my list.
2) Warm apple pie with ice-cream and a hot cup of tea
3) How happy my puppies were to see me when I got home
4) Lovely messages on Facebook from a couple of people <3 The outpouring of love & support has truly touched my heart. I couldn't ask for a better support system.
I can't pinpoint anything that even really irritated me today besides my shoulder being bit achy this evening but seriously, that's cake compared to everything else.
One of my favorite quotes:
"For a star to be born, there is one thing that must happen: a gaseous nebula must collapse. So collapse. This is not your destruction, this is your birth". -Noor
