Imagine a tall hill, bordering on the cusp of being labeled a mountain. At the top are a cluster of balls, varying in size. Some are massive -- others the size of a marble. A few of them sparkle with promise while one too many balls are a depressing dark matte black color. With the jolt from an earthquake, the balls tumble down the hill. Ideally, it would be nice if they stayed together like a herd of horses, but inevitably, a few of them take a turn and veer off course disappearing from site.
Those balls represent everything going on in my life, and something somewhere started the ground shaking and now i'm chasing the balls trying to keep up. One of the balls which veered off course was my lovely blog and now i'm trying to catch it and bring it back.
This morning I woke up at 5:15 am packed my yoga mat, weights and water for bridal bootcamp; packed clothes for the school day and a towel, makeup and soaps to shower at school, packed some food for the day in a half-awakened state and stumbled out my door with a 50 lb backpack of law books on my back, a gym bag purse and yoga mat on my shoulder, lunch bag on my arm, one 5lb weight in my sweater pocket, and another 5lb weight in my hand. It was a miracle I made it down the stairs in the pitch black carrying everything.
Bridal Bootcamp ...kicked my booty --its a good thing. I was so worn out that by the end I was legitimately nauseous and had to pause for a few minutes before walking to my car. I have to say it is motivating to be surrounded by other brides sweating to look fit and glamorous ( and healthy) on their wedding day.
Food has been rushed ( depressing, I miss my kitchen). I was ravenously hungry for two hours after the workout. I ate chicken... still hungry. I thought protein was supposed to stop hunger?? A latte didnt help either... I snacked and munched for a bit ( there may have been a pumpkin scone involved- Sorry Starbucks, you disappoint.... but motivate me to tackle the recipe myself)
Ironically, mid afternoon I am no longer hungry and so far only had a banana for "lunch" .
Another post-bootcamp observation -- I'm fidgety. How am I going to sit through 3 law school classes like this??? :)
I have been very fidgety too. Maybe it is something in the air? And I'm sorry that food has been rushed lately...that can always throw me in a funk. I hope that this week finds you happy and content. Thank you for sharing love.
