I'm not sure I can adequately put in writing how I-N-S-A-N-E the month of March was for me. Not only at work (with all of our crazy clients, crazy schedules, and comings and goings of crazy things), but running errands and going to appointments and looking at apartments and church and helping my parents re-do the kitchen and actually having a minuscule social life. I couldn't wait for March to be over from the very beginning. I'm sooo grateful for a new month, a new season, and all of the exciting things I have to look forward to in the next month.
But before I get too ahead of myself, a brief recap of everything I've been meaning to share:
1) I've been going to the dentist about every 2 weeks have work done. Right now I just had 2 appts to get my gums reshaped which is just as painful as it sounds. So thankful for numbing gel and the suction tube so I don't have to feel or smell my burning flesh. (they used a laser) I have temporary crowns put on my implant so I am officially rid of my retainer!!! I'm just currently having issues with these temporary ones seeing as how they just don't want to stay in my mouth. No good. Counting down the days (vaguely as I don't know when for sure I'll be done) until this is all over with.
2) I'm down *officially* 14 lbs. I feel great and I feel like I look great. I have muscle definition in my arms for the first time ever and it feels so good to be taking care of myself. Some days eating healthy is hard as I just don't want to eat healthy but I try to keep pictures in my head to keep myself motivated. Plus having the goal of running this 5K in a week (!!!!!) and beat my time from last year is a good motivation. (Although I'm secretly scared I'm not going to be able to beat my time.... :/ ) I don't know what I'm going to do once my time is up with my trainer. (Let's not even go into all that nonsense in this post)
3) I was watching one of the Harry Potter movies (don't judge) the other day and pondering over it. Harry always longs to go back to Hogwarts. He has always felt as if Hogwarts was more of a home than anywhere else was. Not his Aunt and Uncle's house, not the Burrow, not 12 Grimmauld Place. And even though Harry is a fictional character I know EXACTLY how he feels. Grace College has always been more of a home to me than Leonard, San Diego, or anywhere else I've been. Just the thought of going back to visit next weekend, I'm already relaxing and breathing easier. There is something about that area that puts me at ease and I sink into the easiness of living and being and not judged. Not that I'm not living and being and being judged here. There's just something about Grace that is just so right and easy.
4) Rejection isn't easy. Being rejected and rejecting someone else. Sorry to that someone I said "No" to a couple weeks ago. It hurt me just as much as it did you. But I couldn't lie to you or myself.
5) I watched "It's Kind of a Funny Story" last night. Number one: hilarious. Number two: hit super close to home. Number 3: "[This sweater] smells like a hobo's bandaid."
.....Wow I'm trying to think of something else to write but my brain is dying and running on half power today. Must be the lack of sleep. Plus I'm freezing. I guess all over updates you would like to know mean you would have to contact me. Huh... novel idea, right??
