Hello March!

I can't believe March is here.  It's crazy how fast time flies, and how quickly I can fall into a good routine or a rut.  I've seen good results with my February workout challenges, and have already chosen my focus areas for March -- arms and legs.  I'm not going to fear bathing suit season this year!

I'm getting back to a more regular yoga routine.  I've noticed that I'm happier mentally after doing yoga and the days in between what I call my "moody days" are further apart.  I'm also looking to get out of my apartment and get involved in some groups, as well as attending activities and events.  I've been such a hermit due to the cold weather, and am really anxious for spring!

Things are going well in the house hunting department.  I've laid the ground work, now it's just time to find the house!  I'm so excited to not be attached to my neighbors, and with any luck have a parking pad or garage!  With the prospect of moving in the relatively near future, I've been in spring cleaning mode.  Anything I haven't used or worn lately, I've been tossing or giving away.  I've also been saving boxes from things I order in the mail so that I have free moving boxes when the time comes.  It's all I can do to not start packing now.  LOL.  I am ready to go!

I'm going to read more this month.  My NYE goal of reading more is not quite panning out the way I hoped.  I have a stack of books from the library sitting on my coffee table, but per usual, my winter hermit routine includes watching a lot of Netflix.

I feel like I've got a lot of goals and hopes for myself, but beyond my regular exercise routines my day-to-day activities are rather blah.  I go to work, I come home from work, I go to bed.  There's got to be more to life than that!

The Taste of Fall

All of a sudden it’s fall.   It’s like a switch was flipped.   The nights are cooler (well, I think they’re down right cold) and the days are shorter.   I’m wearing light jackets, and thoroughly enjoying the new trench coat the I picked up back in August.   Today I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season.   And, it was amazing.   I’m so excited that fall is here.   I just love all the spices and flavors in fall seasonal food.   I’m looking forward to trying out some very delicious looking recipes that I’ve been saving for cooler weather, and partaking in some fall-ish activties.   I just hope it doesn’t get too cold too soon!

Forward is Forward

There are definitely days, weeks, or even more extended periods of time when I feel stuck.  I feel like I'm not going anywhere and no matter what I do, and that I'm not making any progress.  But, the truth is, whether we see it or not, every day we get up and continue to work on our goals, is a day that we are moving forward.  We just have to keep persevering despite all the obstacles and distractions.  Think of it this way, we don't value things that come easy!

Hello October and PSLs!

Now that it's officially October, I'm allowing myself to drink pumpkin spice latte's, and it has truly made my Monday morning a little brighter.  I love how the little things, can make me stop and smell the roses, or coffee, in this case.  It is the start of a new month, and a new week, and for me, the start of quarter end!  I'm going to need a lot more coffee!  LOL. Over the last few weeks, I have really been tested at work.  I can tell that people are being put in front of me so that I can grow and work past some things in my life.  Like, how I can't control everything.  And, no matter what job I work in, there will always be challenging people that I need to work and partner with.   I read something recently that kind of put it into perspective.  Gold, when found in nature, is encased in rock and must be manually removed.  I don't know the science behind it, but these rocks must be crushed, chemically treated, and heated t...
