Turning over a new leaf...but just one..I don't want to do the whole yard

So....I'm pretty sure I re-injured my foot.  It was feeling GREAT yesterday and I went on a run.  I think my adrenaline was going way too quickly because I was holding 8:30/mi averages and around mile 3 my foot hurt.  BADLY.

I wanted to do yoga this morning but I am pretty sure it was just as well that I didn't.  I'll teach spin tonight because my shoes prevent me from moving my foot too much but I am annoyed to say the least.

Instead - I am only going to view it as a minor setback.  They happen.  I'm not going to get bummed the way I did the first time it happened.  Plus, I have so much to look forward to!

SWIM SEASON STARTS IN FOUR DAYS!!! OMGIAMPUMPED!

Can you tell I'm excited?

Also, I am finally making my way back down to O-town for a weekend in December.  The last 7 weeks of 2012 are jam packed - just the way I like it! 

Can anyone else believe that we are almost finished with 2012?  Where did the year go?  It's so true, the old adage 'a lot can change in a years time' or even 'time passes quicker as you get older'.  I don't know if it's going quicker but I'm definitely busier which makes time go quickly.

Additionally...part of the new leaf I am turning over is approaching things with a 'carpe diem' attitude.  No, I am not dying....I just realized that I held on to the sadness of Pete and I breaking up for too long and life is what it is.  If things happen with him, they do.  If not, they don't.  The circumstances in which I find my life in are not necessarily conducive to a relationship right now anyway.  I am just going to enjoy all of the experiences life sends my way.

Clearly the universe is telling me to slow back down (with the foot and all).  Fine.  One thing at a time.  It's a lesson I've had to learn the hard way indeed.

One of the next posts I put up will include a look back on 2012 and what I am hoping to accomplish in 2013.
