hi, hey, hello.

7.04.2011

it's warmer when you're waiting, it feels more like july

July.

I have no beef with July... Except that it means 2011 is halfway over?!?! When did that happen seriously!!

2011 has been pretty amazing to me. Passed my NBCOT exam, got my GA OT license, began my job as a real hand therapist (!), got closer with my family & some new friends, reunited time zones with some old friends, and finally pulled my head out of the sand and told the boyfriend how I feel about him.

So July, huh.

Well, so far I've been fairly impressed with what it has had to offer. A cabin getaway with good family and close friends, an Independence Day of Abigail and hanging with the Roberts (and a few of their closet friends), and today is my cats 2nd birthday. Happy birthday Sir Lexicon!

Things that is be okay with changing in July: my current workout abilities, ie the hip pain that has been plaguing me since Feb's 10k, the fact that I'm breaking out like a 14 year old girl all over again -- chalking that one up to humidity, lack of exercise and stress, and this stupid heat rash on the back of my leg that I haven't had since I was 10. (Not that any of you need to know, but as a kid I would get heat rashes in my knee and elbow creases that I would spend all summer scratching).

So my plans to celebrate july aka 1/2 way to 2012: well I head to san fran next week for a 4.5 day getaway with my favorite law student. Then I hit up Nashville to see the southeasts best hip doctor. (Thrilled about a 7am appt that's 3.5 hrs away). Then Davis, my sisters second son will be here!!!! And as if July could handle any more excitement, I also plan on starting to get back into some kind of normal exercise routine again... despite the hip pain ... and to help with that whole "self improvement" plan, ill be in increasing the amount of cooking I do and limiting myself to 2 beers a week --this does not exclude the vodka tonics, thankfully, but will decrease the # of calories that I consume!!

Okay, July, let's do this...starting tomorrow of course :)
