Drive around the block just one more time.
Here I go again with another "life is good and all is well" boring journal posts.
But, what can I say? Life is good. All is well.
It's odd how mellow and introverted I have become....and, how now being home quite a hand-full of months, I'm still kind of feeling out what fits and what doesn't. And, who. I like being alone more and more. Or, rather, I like being alone more than hanging out with people simply to be "out".
One place that I have found in the past week is the Crossfit gym. After one workout I could feel the me that I missed for so long whispering in me, the me that I truly love and enjoy: the Athlete me. Sure, I've been running, but I haven't been busting out so many cleans that I almost have to pull the car over and puke on the way home because DAMN I just worked So. Fucking. Hard. It's a small, pretty haphazard group of folks who either love fitness or hate themselves... because it is INTENSE, border-line masochistic. But, yet so amazingly awesome. My quads are so sore I can barely support myself to lower onto the toilet, or get up from it for that matter. All I can feel is my body saying "Girl, it's been a looong time........"
Also on the sports front, I am running a half marathon in honor of my step-brother, who is a lymphoma survivor, with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. So, for those of you who feel like giving to a GREAT cause, check out my LLS page: http://pages.teamintraining.org/ga/StPeteHf09/lhintonnqj Thanks so much georgia_s_brown for your donation, and how you always support my projects and interests. "Thank you" really doesn't seem adequate.
And for now, I am off to go give the Bunny some attention. I am tired, and grateful, and happy to have my health, my Bunny, employment, and good friends. Love and blessings to you all!
