Life has been super crazy…

March 9, 2010

3/6/10-  I haven’t blogged much in the past two weeks because life has been super crazy.  Between work, boot camp, and other meetings related to deserves changes, I have been leaving my home each morning at 4:45am and not getting home until after 8pm each evening.    Last weekend I met with Camala for life coaching and then spent the night on my sister’s couch to come back to the Changes Salon & Day Spa on Saturday morning for the beginning of my makeover.  The morning was super relaxing but I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason.  On Friday night, Camala and I were discussing previous relationships that I had been hurt by and how to move on from those.  Well, on Saturday morning at the salon, I ran into the sister of an old boyfriend who had hurt me very badly.  The reason that this was so ironic is that I had not seen this sister in almost 10 years!    It was a very signifigant reminder to help me move on.

I was able to get my hair colored as well as a facial and manicure.   Changes Salon & Day spa is so relaxing.  The first thing when I went in was a steam room.  Between each appointment, I was able to relax in their “relaxation room” which as a full wall made of water.  It is, quite possibly, my favorite place there.

After the salon day  I went to a bridal shower for a good friend and had an amazing time.  On Sunday, I began the demolition of my bathroom.  As I mentioned before, I am a severe DIY’er.  We ripped out the old counter.  It did a number on my manicure but luckily I had touch up paint.

This past week has, again, been insanely busy.  One high point related to changes was that I was contacted by Louis and Carla who run the Hikari Dojo.  I am really looking forward to learning martial arts but they are located in Martinez and I just could not figure out how I would find any more hours in the day to fit anything else in.  Luckily, Louis was very understanding and I will train with them in the summer when I have more free time to focus on that.

I weighed myself this evening and I lost 4 pounds in the past week.  This was great considering the week prior I had only lost .2 pounds.  But now I am at a total of 14 pounds.  I am going shopping for clothing for my “after picture” soon but I am hoping that I can get just one outfit as I am still loosing weight and it would be a shame to buy an outfit only to have it too big a month later.  But I am still plugging away (have not missed a day of boot camp since I started Feb 1st) and I am off to bed because that is pretty much what I have time to do when I am home… smile
