Hey there!
This stream of consciousness is intended to be an unfiltered account of my journey to fight my way to a healthier, happier life. One day at a time, one step at a time, one organically-grown-emotionally-raw blog post at a time…

2018-02-21 The One About Dates
3 2s 2 0s 2 1s 1 8 Among all the ideas, problems, people, and feelings my brain forces itself to contemplate relentlessly are numbers. I’m on day three with my current analysis about dates(ironically, I’m referring to calendar dates). I’ve counted the numbers, the occurrence of certain numbers, written them forward and backward, and…

2018-02-19 Location, Location, Location
I never heard back from new guy last night. I tried to keep my mind off of it and I tried to read and write instead. I’m not going to lie, it was tough. I’m not a stalker but I feel like one. That’s not me, is it? I don’t really even know this guy…

2018-02-18 All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go
I should be reading and I should be going over my notes and revisions or SOMETHING else productive, but I just can’t seem to focus when I have other stuff just burning my brain. BURNING. I’ve been out a couple times now with a new dude and I really like him and he says that…

2018-02-18 Sunday Status Update – Ugly, Uglier, and Ugliest
Oh how I have missed you, my sweet, beautiful elliptical machine. I know I’ve been gone for a few days but I promise you there were no other machines involved.. just people, work, wine, and a successful visit to the Red Cross (not in that order of course). The stat at the top of my…

2018-02-15 Over Halfway There
It’s over halfway through winter. It’s over halfway through February. I’m over halfway over any person, place, or event that has ever had a negative impact on my life. It’s a very fortunate place to be. I recognize this and acknowledge that there are many, many people in the world who will never have the…

2018-02-14 The Gift Of Time
This poser holiday is even dumber than Groundhog Day. Can I get an Amen from all my fellow V-day haters? Yet.. it’s a thing I can’t help but think I would be totally excited about if I was in a romantic relationship. /sigh What do we do? We kill a bunch of flowers. We boost…

2018-02-13 Tuesday’s are Pretty Bomb Too
Yesterday I bounced back from the low step counts from last week but still haven’t balanced things out with the coursework. I’ve gotta find the Mojo today to do some reading. I’m meeting Simon for coffee at 2 to “catch up” and return the things he left at my house we used to patch the…

2018-02-12 The Open Book
I’m an open book waiting for someone to pick a page and start reading. I’m waiting for the sweetest bookmark a girl could ever ask for. I’m waiting for something to write another page about. Oh man… what a way to start a Monday morning! For real. This week I’m going to try and get…

2018-02-11 Cool Cats and Sunday Stats
Sometimes I have more to say and today was one of those days. This is post #2 today and there might be more if I keep procrastinating other things the way I have been lately. The topics are piling up and my desire to do anything else is waning. Such is the writer’s life. Without…

2018-02-11 Just a Times New Roman Girl with an Affinity for Starting Fires
Most of the time when I start to write, I’m writing about what happened yesterday or today or what might happen tomorrow. It’s my current stream of consciousness thats pouring out my fingertips and sometimes I know where I want to start and where it will end and sometimes I have no idea. If I…

2018-02-10 Finding Inspiration and Motivation
So far today I’m pretty uninspired. I was awake by 6am and did a little gathering of statistics for Work and then got my daughter up for drivers ed this morning. The class is 5 hours in the classroom today followed by 2 hours behind the wheel with an instructor this afternoon. That’s a full…
