so this morning i saw the bright sunlight [which has been rather MIA lately] streaming through my blinds and i was so excited to go for a run, thinking it would be mid-50s, like it was yesterday. FALSE. it was freezing, literally – even with that blinding sun – and there was an arctic wind blowing at what felt like 50 mph, the kind that cuts right through your bones and makes certain that you’ll never warm up despite the fact that you’re running. fun stuff. but i sucked it up because it’s about time that i get back on my running routine. no more holiday excuses.
anyway, onto selfie sunday… last week, i vowed that i would be more organized and get my stuff together, and i went into more detail about why that was this week’s challenge in this post. unfortunately, i did have one other mishap which was losing my debit card on NYE, but other than that, i did much better and am hoping that my “responsibility issues” are over [knocking on wood though, just in case]!
this week, i’m gonna do something a little different. right now we’re at the time of year that’s filled with resolutions, and i definitely have my fair share of them that i’ve catalogued in my head – to do more resistance training, to take more photos with the people i’m with, to be less of a worrywart, the list goes on. but i feel like i’m always resolving to do something better or accomplish something, as illustrated by these selfie sunday challenges that i do every week. my whole life is packed with resolutions and goals, and i think it’s great because it makes me a better person. but to be honest, sometimes it’s nice to just be. and that’s what i’m going to do this week – to be happy with who i am and what i’m doing, and relax and enjoy life and just be. you could argue that that’s a goal/resolution in itself, which would not be a lie, but i’m not going to think of it that way. it’s okay to take a break every once in a while, and that’s how i’m thinking of it – a little week-long break from the attaining of goals.
{and because i’m sick of looking at my face, as i’m sure are you by now [!], the photos above will have to do for “selfies” today. because this is what my life looks like lately.} :)
we’ll go back to the regular selfie sunday next week, but it was a nice change-up for today! have a great fullllll week back at work. boooooo.
