Goodness gracious. I felt kind of lost coming back to this place. I feel like I have the same stuff to say, different day, forever and ever..amen. I'm not making resolutions. I've been declaring 2012 my "year of self-love!" I'm making an effort to stop despising myself, my body. I figure I honestly cannot be truly productive in change until I accept who I am right now.
I picked up Eat to Live again. I purchased it months ago and flipped through a bit and didn't want to read it cover to cover but I'm going to work on devouring this instead of the salt and sugar I've shoveled into my face the past couple weeks. Holy puffball pom.
I read this just now. I'm not going to the gym yet. I don't know how. There's a community center down the road from me. I'm basically a few doors away from being a resident of Mission so my fees are higher. Annoying but still super reasonable if you ask me. Oh, oops..I just realized in review that I was looking at the "youth" rate. Adult rate is $43/mo or $68/mo for a family. I'd basically want access to the pool and sauna/steam room. There's also 2 hrs of childcare for $3.00. I feel weird about taking her to that but she'd so totally love it, I'm sure.
Just seems like writing out any of my body desires seem pretty much like the fruit who cried wolf until I'm like hey, dudes..guess what I did! So maybe I'll kind of take that route. When I wanted to do the "couch to 5k" I was so excited and talked about it openly. I never got past the first week. I fell in my living room like an idiot and hurt my ankle and then trying to "runjog" felt really owie. That ankle still gives me shit but is definitely way better and no longer can serve as any sort of excuse. Tassie said "no more excuses" and it's just so plain and simple. Just yeah, there are none.
Lots of hopes and good thoughts about this year. Today I'm having the worst sore throat in years and I just wanted to make sure I mentioned that after I did my usual sore throat arrives--gargle with warm salt water gig I then gargled with warm water laced with salt/cayenne pepper/apple cider vinegar. Yeah. It was on some earth clinic site. ha. I'm making a trip to whole foods in a bit to obtain some oil of oregano per Jenny's rec.
Anyway.
The Hunger Games trilogy is hands-down one of my favorite book series ever. Just. Love. I'm halfway through the last book and keep telling myself to take a break, slow down so I can savor it. I got the series for Christmas from Roommate. I'd already read the first so I immediately read and finished the second and now am on the third this same week and could finish up so easy. I'll read Eat to Live too.
Beebs and I are taking a walk today. I'm going to go eat some oatmeal or something now.
Slow and steady. I'm gonna win this race.
I knew you'd enjoy the Hunger Games trilogy. I had a hard time putting it down--I really got through all three books quickly because I wanted to know how it was all going to end.
