Guess who rolled her lazy butt outta bed and hit the gym this morning! That's right, this girl! Well, it was really at hubby's insistence, but still. I did it, and I feel so much better for it!
While I was laying in the tanning bed, I got to thinking. (What, isn't that where you do all your best thinking?) Anyway, I have been married for a bit over 8 years. I was going back over the last 8 years, and realized just how naive I really was then. Don't get me wrong, I don't think I made a mistake marrying the hubby or anything silly like that. Just when you're 19, you expect your life to be glitter farts and rainbows and perfect and fabulous and nothing bad can ever happen. Pshaw. I mean, I knew that life and marriage are both something hard that you have to work at. But I didn't *know* that. Granted, the only real struggle we've had is infertility and miscarriage. But let me tell you, those can take a toll.
That being said, overall, I am blissfully ridiculously happy with my life. Sure, there are small things I'd like to change. My weight being the big one, which, hello! Look at me go! I have considered going back to school at some point, but I don't know what I want to be when I grow up, so I'm not spending the money on it right now. I'd like to live in a house that's not connected to anybody else's house. (Apartments suck. Just FYI.) But these are all things that we have the power to change. It may take some time, but we have the power to change them.
I guess there's no real point in this particular blog post, I just wanted to share my tanning bed thoughts. :)
I do my best thinking in a tanning bed! Of course, I haven't tanned in about 15 years, so that explains a lot.....
