Since the last blog. I have quit my corporate job. (Shock, yes?) I am currently just staying home. Didn't do this the normal way. Didn't stay home when kids were little. Call it a mini "retirement", call it whatever you will. I'm working part time from home as a consultant, and am LOVING the flexibility. Love being home to take care of myself, and my family, and my home.
On ME:
- I am still actively doing cardio. I do 5K on my elliptical 3-4 times a week, lift weights 3 times a week, and am loving the feeling. I feel stronger, healthier, and I've begun to lose weight. Because I've not drastically changed my eating habits, the weight loss is slow, but I am forming habits. The wierd thing is, I LOVE to exercise. I just needed to remind myself of that. Planning on running some 5K this summer. So my goal is to continue upping the resistance on the elliptical to prepare me for that - at 6 right now.
- Working part time, I've been able to clean and organize, purging so much from our lives. It feels amazing.
- I am sleeping SO much better. Our marriage is better than ever. I am not stressed, short, snippy, or anything - as the stress of corporate life is GONE.
I am just so ridiculously Blessed to be able to do this. I feel for once that my life is in balance. I am able to help others. I am able to give back. Life is good.
