Not much popping here. I've been working part-time the last few months and loving it. It's amazing what happens when you get more free time and flexibility in your day! My last gig at a law school just ended, and I spent a few days in Vegas. In the meantime, I have a couple of personal training clients, and I am really enjoying it, more than I thought I would. I have a few more in the pipeline, so hopefully that will lead somewhere. I am working on a logo and business cards right now, just got insurance and established as a corporation. I figure I might as well put some energy into it if I'm going to do it. I've also been interviewing here and there, I and I got an job offer from the University of Pittsburgh Law School! The job is here, though. The law school is trying to establish a stronger presence in the DC area, since alot of alum end up here. So I'll be the director of DC Outreach. I'll be the only person in the office here, and best of all, it's part-time! So I essentially will still have time to do the personal training thing! I'm pretty psyched about it. Even though it's been a rough year, I feel like I am right where I'm supposed to be.
K is doing well. I can't believe he's about to be in kindergarten! He has really matured this year. We begrudgingly started him on ADHD meds, but the difference in him has truly been remarkable. He's like a different kid in some ways, but very much himself. He still has moments of course, but for the most part, he's much more pleasant to be around.
Me- I started working with a new trainer in January, and I am LOVING her. I am working HARD, but seeing results. I expect to do a show in Oct/Nov., then I am hanging it up. My body/physique is just not cut out for figure, and I have no desire to switch to bodybuilding. I just want to prove to myself that I can do it, then I'll move into something else. Other than that, just trying to enjoy life. The boy and I are coming up on our 9 year anniversary this year. : Hard to believe.
