2:34 AM

I'm having some trouble sleeping...what better time to write a blog?

I'm kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop. How horrible is that? Life is so good right now that I can't believe it's this good! While work isn't the greatest, I'm taking some steps to establish myself and pursue my dreams. And I'm okay with that. Friends are unbelievable. I've finally found a few ladies I can call my friends. I hang out with them on a regular basis and enjoy their company. They are unbelievably beautiful and strong women who add value to my life in a many ways. The reason this makes me so happy is that for a while I felt really lost here, which is easy to do in a city like DC. Constantly changing, people seem to move here and leave quickly. However, during the last year, I also evaluated the people I had in my life and those who were no longer positive influences or toxic in any way, I let slip away. It's very hard for me to let people go, but it has definitely gotten easier as time passed (and as I've gotten older).

Finally, I'm getting into a groove with the work outs. I try to go to a majority of the workouts during the week and it's much easier to get them done. I was sick (again) this past weekend, but I'm starting to see changes in my body (-5 lbs in 2 weeks...woohoo!) and it is definitely motivating. I definitely need to "use" the team as support during this whole experience. I feel like I will miss out on a lot if I don't. One thing I'm definitely finding hard to do is give up my social life buttttt I can always replace outings with hang outs and just find healthier ways of spending time with friends. This week is recovery week and I plan on doing every single workout. I'll add a couple of miles to my run tomorrow because I missed the long run. I might even do an extra spin on Tuesday (but that might be a little ambitious :p).

So yeah. It's 2:47 am now and I think I'll go to sleep.
Happy Monday!
