I have a couple post ideas going but I wanted to just catch up with you guys and let you know what's been going on with me the past couple of weeks. I don't want this blog to just be a bunch of posts about recovery without my own story too, because that would be boring right? You want to know me too, don't ya?!
Well, like I said before, I moved to a new apartment with Ben about three weeks ago. Ben went back to school in Maine so we had to find a place to live for the year. It's a lot bigger than last year's place which is both good and bad, but only bad because we don't know what to do with the living room area! We don't even have a couch to sit on haha.
But it's been nice to have our own space again. I'm in the middle of completing my personal training certificate and looking for a job, which is both stressful and tiring. I'm also in my last year at Kaplan, so doing class work every night doesn't help the stress. But it's all good.
My Mom came up last week to visit and brought my dogs, Marlin and Leah. Leah ended up staying with us for a week which was nice. It's always fun to have a puppy around and plus I love Leah so much and was missing her bunches! We went for a lot of nice walks and she took over the whole bed at night, and she begged for food every time I ate, but she was a good girl!
I also had my first "real" injury at the gym this past Monday. It shouldn't really be so exciting but I've had a lot of 'firsts' this week, including nine stitches on my leg! I was doing some box jumps at the gym and slipped, hit a nail (which shouldn't have been there), and gashed open my leg. It was pretty nasty and I had to go to the doctor place, where they stitched me up and sent me home with a big bandage on my leg. I felt pretty bad-ass not gonna lie!
For some reason I have always loved getting hurt and getting scars afterwards. Not sure why, I guess I'm just a wierdo!
Anyways, that's what I've been up to. Nothing too exciting, but enough to keep me busy. What have all of you guys been doing? How are you? I hope everyone is well and happy.
I want to hear from you! Comment and let me know how you are!
xoxo

p.s. I'll be back tomorrow or Friday with a new post about eating and body image!
