It’s All A Process

This has been a crazy few weeks. The weather has been changing frequently so walking Louie has been challenging, but we have still been trudging along. One thing this winter has taught me, is that it is more difficult to get warm than it had in years past.

I’ve been walking Lou at least twice a day, on average a mile each time. We’ve been trying to kick through these walls pretty quickly, maintaining a 20 minute mile each time. However we always have to stop for poop! Luckily not mine. With walking Lou I’ve lost a little over 20 lbs. Honestly I’m not sure from where. Usually when you lose weight, you can point to an area on your body and say, oh my pants are looser or whatnot. At this moment I have no idea where it has come from.

While I’ve been getting faster and less winded on our walks, I’m still frustrated. I constantly have to remind myself that I didn’t gain the weight in a short amount of time and I won’t lose it permanently in a short amount of time. It’s a process but it is maddening and frustrating. Perhaps I need to add some core building to daily activities.

Work is still plodding along, and it is not crazy frustrating which is always a plus. I took a full vacation a couple of weeks ago. It was nice to be off. It was nice not to have to worry about anything. Coming back has been a little jarring. Things are changing and I no longer know exactly where I stand. It is an interesting journey. I’ve never worked for a start up before so it is fascinating to watch.
