Wow another entry... Weird!
I guess I don't write in here enough really...
I mean it is supposed to be a journal right??? *shrug*
I guess I just feel like there aren't enough hours in a day to really do all the things I want along with all the things I HAVE to do. Being an adult can really have its' ups and downs.
Well here is an update along with a few rants & raves and some shouts of joy. If you are interested
Life in Denver is really becoming the norm now. For me anyways. It isn't as cold as I thought it would be. I thought I would have to prepare for real snow days and an actual snow season. it's not like that at all. The weather is actually really beautiful and unpredictable. Most days are really gorgeous, High 50's Low 60's, sunshine, & blue skies. Then there are the occasional cold days with some snow flurries & a little wind or an overnight snow shower that melts off the next day. The weather changes daily. It's weird, but kind of cool. You are never stuck with the same thing like constant burning dry heat or consistent rain showers and overcast. I like that about living in Colorado. I like having to watch the weather to find out what it might be like the next day.
So I started a new job. I made it back to the corporate world again. Working full time. It is quite a change from being a "SAHM" for the 1st year. I actually have to get up at 6:30 am, get dressed in business clothes, pack up the "brief case", grab star bucks, and head downtown to a sky rise bank building. LOL!!! I love it. I never thought I would miss being a productive part of the working society. I have always loved making my own money and being my own independent, self reliant person. There is a certain satisfaction to it, a certain dignity that you just don't get when you are at home all the time. Don't get me wrong... being a full time homemaker, wife, & parent is a career all in itself, but your only payment is the gratification of knowing you are molding a precious life into something positive and beautiful. I guess I am just the type of person who wants her cake and eat it too. I want to be the reliable organized homemaker, loving compassionate wife, caring influential mother, and the dynamic corporate career woman. Is that too much to ask... too much to want... too much to be able to commit to? I don't know, but dammit I am going to try. I feel like I can do it on some days and on others I just think there are not enough hours in a day. Oh I said that already...LOL!!!
Oh well... on a good note I am accomplishing one of my new years' resolutions. I wanted to revamp my lifestyle health and fitness wise. When I made that resolution I weighed 140 lbs. After a baby and the stresses of moving & finances, losing weight can be hard. I know I found it difficult. I now weigh a beautiful 124 lbs. That is a total loss of 16 lbs. Before the baby I weighed 115 lbs. so I only have 9 more pound to get make to my pre-baby weight. How did I do it you ask?!?! Well... we ordered the Tony Horton "POWER 90" program. It is a home fitness/healthy diet DVD program. It really works. It is a 90 day boot camp to get you physically fit. No claims of getting you ripped and from a size 13 to a size 0. Just real life results. You do lose weight and you do change your lifestyle (the way you eat and what you eat). No you don't have to give up carbs or the occasional indulgence (like pizza, burgers, or ice cream). You learn how to take care of your body and how important exercise (even the least bit) is really important to your health. I LOVE IT. I have benefited from it and I know anyone can. It is not a quick fix but if you really want to change your life and your body you can with this program. It is for anyone =)
Okay no more infomercial... LOL!!!
So what else has been going on in my life....
Well I just had my 27th birthday. That was interesting. I think I becoming a little more comfortable with this whole "aging" thing. It is so weird counting down to 30. I mean I really am an ADULT when iI turn 30. There is no gap, no closeness at all to being a YOUNG adult any more. You are a grown up by 30... at least you SHOULD BE!!! If you are still at home with mommy and daddy, don't have a job, and don't have anything truly substantial in your life by the time you are 30... well you need to do some serious revaluation. SERIOUSLY!!! There is a problem. Think about it.
I am making a lot of friends in Denver. I am getting out a lot more and becoming a social butterfly again. We just went to a party last weekend and saw the Bassbin Twins. The show was absolutely insane. The performance was unbelievable. Definitely not like the disappoint at WONDER 2 in AZ. Also the venue was amazing. It was so close to my house that we could actually walk to the party. I have never been able to walk to a party before. It is so awesome living downtown. My job is 5 minutes away ( I can take the train aka the "light rail"), the nightlife is a walk away, and we are so close to everything (invesco, Pepsi center, coor field, state capital, etc.).
I don't think I will ever live in the suburbs again. City Girl for life =)
As for my fabulous better half... well he is doing great too. His job is going really well. Moving up that corporate ladder. He is playing a lot of gigs out here too (parties, clubs, radio shows, etc.).
He has put out 2 new CDs as well. He has a partnership in a few club nights (weeklies/monthlies). He is also taken on the role heading up artist management for FEVAH Records. I am so proud of him. It is so nice to see his talent being appreciated and respected. That is such a change from AZ and the scene of butt kissing, C*ck sucking, two-faced people too involved in the politics of who is down with who instead of what the scene should be about... the MUSIC, the TALENT, the ART, the DANCE, and the LOVE. Not everyone in the scene is like that... but there are not enough of those people to really make a difference or to even be noticed. Kinda like needles in a haystack. Needless to say I will never really be apart of the AZ music/rave scene again. It is a joke.
Thank goodness I am in the 303!!!
So that is all for now...
My fingers are getting tired and I still have work to do.
I will try to keep up on the journal entries. Life just moves so fast these days.
I miss you all my real AZ friends and all my friends in other places not in AZ or CO. Love you guys with all my heart and I hope you life is bring you much happiness and fulfillment.
Peace & Prosperity Always... ♥
