Day #1 of my new life

 

Well, it's a new year (bday year that is).  From this point forward I will not look back and pitty myself.  I'm done with that stage of my life.  I cannot keep thinking about what could have been - it gets me absolutely NO WHERE!  Here is what I will do:

 

* Find a postive for every negative (it will help even out my crazy life)

* Do 10 pushups whenever I catch myself having a pitty party (my arms need the workout)

* Not take my bad days out on my family & friends - aka - hit the gym!

 

This is my new life.  I will not dwell in the bad anymore.  I've got myself out of this hole  before and I can do it again.  If you seen me wallowing in my sadness - tell me to hit the floor and give me 10!  I mean it.

 

My DH took me to the gym tonight.  I shared my weekly goal with him to workout 3x this week.  While my workout was very light (considering the recent D&C), it was nice.   Overall, I'm feeling okay today.   I received 2 bouquets of flowers at work today for my bday.  My desk looks beautiful!  I've started bleeding, but it's very light.  I'm still a little sore, but overall doing okay.  Emotionally, I'm like a rollercoaster.  At this point all I can handle are the hard core/rock music.  No slow songs at this point.  Too sappy.

  

THIS IS MY YEAR DAMN IT!

    YOU GO GIRL!!!!!! I am happy you are looking at it like that! Now, you can be my inspiration. I can't believe you went to the gym tonight. Just walking around my house makes me feel crampy, I am even thinking about taking the day off tomorrow. I am on my feet all day at work and I want to make sure that I heal correctly. When I feel better, I think I will do the same thing...push ups or crunches for pity parties!
    How are you feeling? Are you crampy at all? Bleeding bad?
