Living the good life....

Being home, spending a lot of time alone, noticing dust bunnies and spider webs that I was too busy to see before... I'm finding a way to actually enjoy it.  I find I'm slowly but surely becoming more of the person I want to be.  Eating my veggies, (or drinking them), setting a goal and working toward it, (a half marathon!), turning off the tv and reading, organizing, cooking, or meeting friends for lunch.  I feel unusually calm and incredibly thankful.  Thankful to have the chance to become more of who I want to be.  Thankful for friends and family for their unconditional support.  Thankful for a wonderful husband who is always there when I need him.  Thankful to be alive and (finally) feel like I'm thriving.  

The run clinic I previously posted about changed me from a wanna-be runner to a runner!  It's amazing.  I run now and I feel more comfortable, I feel calmer since my heart rate is within a normal range and not too high, and I feel strong for being able to run without stopping up to 5 miles!  So I signed up for a half marathon and I feel completely committed and excited about it.  Week 1 of training is down, 15 more to go!  

Cheers to health!
