sore sore sore


Okay, so I am the least athletic person you will probably ever meet in your whole entire life. It's true- I very strongly dislike (I won't go so far as to say "hate") working out or anything that would constitute working out. It has to be disguised in something more fun like long boarding or bike riding at the beach. All that to say, I started doing yoga in my living room a few days ago (no way am I going to a real class with other people to try and look silly) and I am so sore! I'm sore in places where I didn't even know it was possible to be sore. But it's a good feeling. I am enjoying the relaxation part as well as how I feel afterwards. I kind of like the soreness. It's like, hey I actually did something good for my body today. Way to go me! Tomorrow will be day 3- I'm getting up early to do it with my roomie before she has class. (I'm even getting up early on a day that I don't have to- what is happening to me?!) Maybe some day I will actually be flexible enough to look like a professional yoga person. Hmmm maybe I should also figure out what those people would be called....

Time

Do you ever feel like there isn't enough time in a day? I suppose a better question would be- do I use the time I have been given to be as productive as possible? There are many days when I go to bed and wish I could have gotten more things done. I am 55 days away from graduating from college and it can't come soon enough! I have this hope that when I'm done with school I will have more time to get things done because I won't have homework to do, but I know deep down that I will still want more time. There are people I want to spend time with, books I want to read, blogs I want to look at, things I want to pin, movies I want to watch, shows I want to catch up on....oh to have an afternoon to be bored with nothing to do! Between school, work, church, and having some sort of social life the evenings at home by myself are few and far between. But I love it that way. I know myself and if I wasn't so busy I wouldn't be as happy as I am. I have never been happier than I am right now. I am so blessed in a million little ways- I couldn't even name them all. BUT I want to be a better steward of the time that God has given me. I want to be more organized, (how many calendars and lists can one girl have?!) so I can somehow get all the things done that I want to. I know that this means I sometimes have to say no to things, and that's okay! I just have to keep reminding myself that. For now, that means shutting my computer down and going to bed on time. Tomorrow morning: yoga day 1. Here's praying it goes well!
