More goals

Day 5 of exercise today saw me extending my walk and even doing a little bit of running, I must admit being able to get back into my exercise is great it's certainly giving me a lot more energy and I look forward to getting home from work, putting on my sneakers on heading out the door, listening to my sounds, I'm looking forward to seeing the results still a long way to go but hey small steps, looking forward to having an exercise buddy too hopefully, I have a very long way to get to the level of this person but the one good thing at having someone who is better at something than you is that you can strive to be just like that person, and although I'm dear say it 15 years older than this person, I will never be as good as this person I'm going to be as good as I can be, and I will have fun spending time with them and getting a better healthy me whilst doing it.

Turning the big 4-oh next year I'm going to be a fab forty and not a frumpy 40, so bring on the warmer weather where there is going to be salads and hopefully a lot more running (although I may have to invest in some new runners, just as well I know a good place to go for good shoes)

Hard to believe we are almost in October for a year that feels like it has dragged, it's going super quick.

    

  

Positive

I was complimented today about all my positive posts really made me feel great it really is true what you put out into the world you receive back and the more you talk to people the better you feel, some people have trouble believing that they as a person can change the way people think, but the more people I talk to makes me relise just how many people fully believe in and give more positive thoughts out to the world,  makes me feel happy knowing there are so many postive people out there, and I'm very lucky to know a few of them and call them my friend, 

I was out walking again tonight and had the biggest smile on my face walking in the rain, with my dog, I'm sure people,must of wondered what I was on, but loving walking and turning my sounds on and just being in my own wee world, 

  

Terrific Tuesday

Feeling like things are so turning out for the better, After being told off numerous times for working thru my lunch I am now trying to get a walk in at lunch time yesterday I did 2kms in 20 mins manage to increase that to 2.5 today, had my 2nd shockwave treatment today got home then took puppy out for a walk, I finally feel that at work I am a bit more helpful in that I can work out my own problems, instead of ringing my manger numerous times a day it's only a couple of times a day (at the mo) but I also recall things now too where a month ago i couldn't remember anything but people ask me questions about orders or something else and I actually know the answers, it certainly has been a very big learning curve for me not knowing a dam thing about cables to actually understanding what people are asking, next thing is leaning the codes, but I think that is going to take a very long time, it's hard to believe is has been almost 3 months and I can honestly say I'm glad that I never looked back as I'm loving it, 

Life looks great from health to family to work to friends, looking forward to the next 12 weeks of this year with a healthy fitter me 

                  

Feeling great

Day 1 of better being today, after my test on my foot for 6kms yesterday thought I would do the same again today and it feels great again round two tomorrow of the shockwave treatment and if my foot feels great after 1 treatment I'm certainly excited about what it's going to be like after 2 

The golf clubs are coming out of retirement next week for a game so this will also be yet another good challenge for said foot,

Feeling positive on a lot of stuff in my life at the moment,  fully believe what you put out into the universe comes back ten fold, so positive positive postitive vibes from me  

                

Goals

I have decided that I need to reset my goals, one of my goals is to def get my foot sorted so today I decided to test it a wee bit so first on the agenda was to extend my walk I manage to get it out to 6kms and although it was a lot  slowly than normal I did it, loving daylight savings as that extra hour of light is great, I was really set on being away for my birthday next year but after crunching numbers tonight it really is going to be hard, there is another reason why I need to go next year as its really the last year that I could take my kids out of school, for a family holiday,  and although I may not be away for my birthday I'm setting my hopes in maybe this time next year it maybe possible, I am not giving up on the idea yet as I still believe if you ask and believe you will receive, my 3rd goal is to be at a weight that I'm happy with so starting tomorrow I'm back to getting these 3 goals back on track, so once again watch this space. 

           

Funny day

So today was a nice day, I got a text from a friend who I haven't seen in ages, (but another one of those friends that you don't see forever and you can talk like you just saw each other yesterday) we always said that as the kids get older it will be easier to catch up truth is it's harder, any how she has been going thru a very hard time and can now just talk about it, I felt terrible that I didn't know what she has been going thru but also very lucky that she came over to tell me face to face, it's the first I have had a friend go thuu something like this and I feel for her, but she knows that we are here for her and her kids and is definitely not going to be another 6 months before I see her, already booked at least one day in the next 6 weeks for a catch up.

I am even more blessed to have friends like her in my life, we have certainly always supported each other in tough times and  I will be there again for her thru this. I know she has got amazing support around her and I hope I can be part of that for her. 

                  

Yah it's Friday

Today was another great day nothing spectacular happened but just being happy is definitely a good thing. It was loud shirt today and this is one of 2 charities that I will always support, my loud shirt made people smile so that made me feel good, it was a busy day today and the last thing I felt like doing was going out for tea, but a friend of mine is getting married tomorrow and we are unable to attend her wedding but I'm certainly happy I went out for dinner, was so exciting to hear the details of her special day, I know that this friend has had a very tough few years and I'm certainly very lucky to call her my friend. And I know she is going to be an amazing bride and have a fab day and I look forward to catching up with her when she gets back from her honeymoon. Funny how people in your life can be around for years and not see them for a while but you still feel like you spoke to them just yesterday, and that will always be the case, I'm very lucky that I have many friends like that, and I look forward to catching up with them all

                         

It's all good

I thought I would have nothing to write about today but today I'm grateful,for having my family back together, my son has been at camp for the last 3 days and although I knew he would fine but  you still can't help but worry about them, he had a blast like I knew he would but came home absolutely shattered. It was so lovely he gave me the biggest cuddle when he saw me. Made my day 😀Funny how as a parent sometimes you just wish for some peace and quiet yet the minute you get that peace and quiet you can't wait to have the noise back. 

I am just in general really happy at the mo, loving life, loving my foot getting better day by day (looking forward to that walk up Rapaki. sometime soon) loving my job, loving that it's Friday tomorrow, bring on the weekend 

           

Feeling happy

I am not sure if it's being happy with life or my foot not hurting any where as much after one lot of treatment (after 9 months of agony) catching up with a friend ( who I haven't seen in almost three months), or having people actual checking on me making sure I'm alright, it has been a fantastic day today.

To have people checking on me and taking time out of their busy day to just have a chat with me, makes me feel pretty good, I got told today I sounded young, (made my day) I think the person I was speaking too was a little bit surprised when I said I have a teenage daughter and 10 year old son, and been married for almost 16 years, what should have been a quick phone call ended up being 10 mins, so this person taking time out of their day was petty cool, also getting to catch up with a friend today at lunch was great,  I knew half an hour wasn't going to be long enough the time flew but we already have another  date set for another catch up (can't wait). 

I love hearing what people think of my blog, and although I sometimes think people don't really want to hear what I have to say I couldn't be further from the truth, people say I'm an inspiration but I think it's just me clearing my thoughts, but thank you for taking the time out of your day to read my thoughts.

  

 

Feeling hopeful

Today I had my specialist appointment for my foot, talking to the specialist I am feeling very hopeful,that my life is going to return back to normal well as normal as normal is, I had this treatment on my foot today he reckons it's going to take 5 sessions once a week for the next 5 weeks, and although I felt like my foot was on fire this morning after the treatment it actually feels quite good, I am hopeful,that the game of golf that I will be playing for work in a couple of weeks it's going to feel pretty good, yah 

Work is still fantastic although today was busy I certainly wouldn't have it any other way, it's hard to believe I have been there almost 3 months. What a crazy year it has been but loving life. amd totally looking forward to what my future holds 

   

Back into it

Oh my gosh where is the time going, I can not believe we are just about in October, daylight savings  starts this weekend ready for summer which means a extra hour of daylight, warmer weather, bbq season you get the drift. 

This year has been a particular tough yeah with an injury which has basically stopped me from doing every form of excercise without being in pain, but on the plus side I am off too the specialist tomorrow and hopefully be able to get my fitness back, it has been 9 months of agony, so I am hoping that after this next 6 weeks I will be able to get back into my golf, walking, running and maybe even get back into tennis, my thyroid is still being a pain too but I have increased the meds for that so that is still a work in progress, bring on feeling great for summer, and my 40th year

Exciting times are a coming
