Yeah, no excuses, folks. I know it's been awhile. Just not feeling it.
Not feeling like much lately. Last week I had these amazing bursts of creativity and energy and this week? Blah. Blerg. Blech. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe it's allergens in the air making me puffy and tired. But I'm having a hard time having much enthusiasm for anything this week.
But that doesn't mean good things aren't happening. I'm in a much better place with the workplace situation than I was a month or two ago. I'm no longer gripped by crippling anxiety that results in giant hives on the back of my neck and uncontrollable scalp itching. Daily life does not require Benadryl. I'm sleeping without the help of Ambien, believe it or not. I have a fabulous sex life with my amazing new boyfriend. I mean, what else could one want?
In an effort to shake myself out of this case of the blahs, I've taken inspiration from Mighty Girl and have decided to do a little work on a life list of my own. Okay, so I won't have a major corporation sponsoring my dreams, but I can still work on a few of my smaller goals right now. And I'm starting with the Danskin triathlon goal. Yeah, yeah, you've all heard this before. For the past two years, actually. But it's only October 1! I'm actually starting this goal more than 2 months out this time. I might actually stand a chance of doing it. And I have real support this time. I mentioned to my BF that I want to do it and his response was that we'd train together. He promised we'll go to the gym and on weekend bike rides and he'll cook me healthy food. (All in unison now: "Awwwww!") We've decided to hold off of starting it until we're both done with upcoming travel, so October 15 is now the start date for this training regimen. And in order to bore you all with my gross happiness and newfound desire for physical fitness, I'll also report on my progress here.
To both of the readers left checking this blog, do you have any life goals you're working toward right now? How do you stay motivated?

How to stay motivated? my sister needs me and I love her very much
How do I stay motivated? Hmmm, it changes sometimes but I'd have to say improved health is a motivation in and of itself. The trick for me is getting into good health before being motivated by it! Words of Advice: Throw out the F*ing scale! It will only bring you down!
