Sometimes I wish I took dance when I was little, because I think I would have loved dancing that way that I love Tae Kwon Do. I come into things a little late in life, it seems. Ah, well, I've always been the girl who did things in her own time, and that isn't going to change now.
MCR on the brain... "Sing it from the heart, sing it 'til you're nuts..."
Things are... lightyears better. I feel like I've rearranged at least a vast majority of things to the point where I'm starting to relax and piece myself back together again. I'm clearing out the shit, essentially, that I've let build up... really since we moved to WV. If I'm looking at things honestly, that's where it started. I closed myself off from the people I left behind, but I did it a little too thoroughly. So, I'm fixing it.
I went for a 9-mile walk with Amanda and the dogs a couple weekends ago, went whitewater rafting with some old friends from BE, I've been outside in the sun doing yard work, saw Jessie for the first time in years... I feel like I've let out a breath I've been holding. I'm sick of sitting in someone's house doing nothing. I LOVE being outdoors. I miss doing water sports, going camping, going for walks. So that's what I'm doing, whether I have someone to go with me or not. And I feel much better for it.
I think one of the biggest things is that I like the job I have. I'm still only part-time, but it pays the bills (don't ask me how, I'm still trying to fathom that one) and I have great co-workers and good owners. I enjoy going into work in the morning (when I get past the general 'i don't want to work!' attitude we all get at 7 am). When it comes down to it, I'm meant to be in a profession with animals. There's just no substitute. This is what makes me happy. I'm so glad I quit Geico. SO glad. I'm also really grateful I have Say, because even when I do have a crappy day, he makes me happy to walk in the door. He's the best decision I ever made.
Things are good, and I'm going to do my best to keep them that way. It just makes me feel a little lighter.
