Go me. :)

On my recent trip to San Francisco, my friends could tell I'd lost weight! The hourglass is beginning to resurface, and I'm quite pleased about it. I haven't been shopping in a while, but from how my pants fit, I daresay I'm firmly one size down from my former one. Since making a few tweaks to my diet, I've been noticing more of a difference. My initial weight has not changed much at all, but I have muscle definition now where I didn't before. It's a good, good thing. And, to top it all off, I just finished my first 25 minute cardio session on a non-workout day! I had gotten up to 20 minutes (I try to do it two days during the week when I don't have workouts scheduled and once during the weekend) semi-regularly, but this is the first time I'd managed to break that barrier.

I am very pleased with myself. In August there will be travel and friends to see and all manner of good things, and I might actually be ready for it. Yay. :)

I bought air fare to GenCon, btw. I might even bring cornbread dressing. :) Top of the World, baby!!!! *grin*

That's all good and all, but we here in ABQ are still waiting on a visit, my dear. :)

Yes, but I have money to collect at GenCon that will let me fix my car. Of course, if you're offering car repair AND a vacation, by all means. :)

In more seriousness, though, I am keeping that in mind. Much of my fun money will havee to wait until after August. I also am making the effort to sell the house there before the divorce, as my ability to afford to keep it ends as soon as David moves out, which is fairly imminent. It may be that I end up heading down there to help finalize that stuff sooner than I might otherwise.

Also, if I'm to be honest, I'll admit that a) knowing some of my former friends will have no interest in seeing me and b) having a couple of less than pleasant memories of the times I have successfully been back there have done a bit to dampen my enthusiasm, whether I realized it or not. Part of me doesn't want to go back and see where my marriage finally ended. It's not the least reflection on you, babe... it's just something I'm still having to work through.

You go, girl!

It's good to see that you're starting down the same path I found myself on earlier this year, as you start to rediscover yourself and appreciate you for who you really are.

Another few months and you're going to be feeling wonderful :)
