1 year!

my, my how time does fly! i am shocked and delighted to see happy, healthy, fit reach its 1 year birthday yesterday! shocked because it feels like i just sat down and wrote post #1 last week! and delighted because let's face it, i wasn't too sure how long i would keep it up. read: commitment issues . . . it may not seem like much to some. and i many not have a ton of traffic. and that is okay. i have created my little space in the mass that is the mysterious interwebs, and by george am i proud. :)

in celebration of turning 1 and it being national batman day i give you . . .

birthday batman

hey girl. hope you have a happy bloggy bday.
xoxo, batman

and then there's this haha!
work went all out and turned our cafe into
gotham city. there were masks, a raffle,
and even a photo booth. such fun :D

. . . and in other news, i went to the dentist again on monday. soooo exciting, right?! yes, this is my life. no shame haha. just the simple life of a cat lady in training. truth: i am a mere month away from being 29, and i still get the jitters going to the dentist.

bib in place and quaking as i await my turn
in the mouth invasion games :(

other than that, it's been work and gym time.

i enjoyed a soothing, muscle rejuvenating 30 minute, non-stop vinyasa flow. oh that kathryn budig. she is my yogi crush on yogaglo and IG.

tuesday: spin class for 1.
i rocked it! felt so good and empowered after
44 minutes of heart-pumping action!

i haven't been sleeping well the past several nights. couple that with a sudden hit to the portfolio at work that has been crazy, non-stop work for three days in a row now (and tomorrow will not be any different), and you get one pooped little lady. going to the gym was seriously the last thing i wanted to do after work. i forgot to wear contacts. misplaced all my hair ties somehow. and just felt allover blah, blah, blah . . . but you know what, i sucked it up and had a successful sweat sesh. another spin class for one. 40 minutes today. i didn't have the energy to go all out beast, so i maintained a steady hill climb and kept my heart rate in the 120s.

somedays you just have to take a deep breath,
banish all body, self judgement, and negative
thoughts with your exhale, and breath in
acceptance and love.

hope you are having a good week so far. we are just over the mid-week hump!

peace. love. :)
