I’m sorry this blog has become so boring!

I fear that I’ve become a little boring in these past months, and life has certainly felt way too busy and way too chaotic lately. I think the end is in sight? We have our college reunion this weekend and a family wedding the next weekend and about a billion other events and tasks in between, but I’m hoping things will feel quieter after that.

This month’s resolution was to write in a gratitude journal every day.

This was a massive failure. We started out strong, but things quickly unraveled for no reason at all. Why was it so hard? It’s not hard to write like three words in a journal every day. It’s just not. And yet we only managed to do it like eight times in the entire month.

My fitness and nutrition goals continue to go well. I’m running the full two miles now, which means I need to start thinking about ratcheting my runs up a little. My goal is to be regularly running three miles by the end of summer. I believe this is doable.

The level one workouts on my Jillian Michaels DVDs have become easy, but the later levels are still kicking my ass, so that’s headed in the right direction.

I had thought of increasing my exercise goal to four times per week (it’s currently three times per week), but decided against it. I can always opt into an extra session if I have time in a given week. But three times just feels SO much more doable than four, and if my biggest goal is to be consistent then why would I make it harder to be consistent? This is not an arena in which I need more challenge.

Anyway. This is boring. Exercising is boring. Talking about exercising is boring. Being an exercising person has made me boring. I am so sorry.
