...so I didn't do it right...

<insert sigh here>. My Mind Gym 30 days didn't go as planned. Life got in the way. Before I knew it I was working right around 60 hour or more work weeks, and barley had the time to sleep (in order to be in the right mindset the poor little mind must be rested no?). But there is good news. I have found that I don't think about the negative when skating. I have done many transitions to the coping first with few problems. My hitting is getting better, my crossovers are better, I just need to get out of my head with my turn around toe stops coming off the track. The only other news I currently have is that nutrition classes make you want to throw EVERYTHING away....and eat things that literally grow out of the ground and nothing else. Consequently I thought I had done that for 30 days...but just found out that when I added a supplement that helped my derby, I hurt my eating regimine. :/ ya win some ya lose some I guess. The good news is, I'm going to detox my body again...after 3 weeks of eating fast food and frozen meals full of preservatives because it was quick and easy for a sleep deprived person, I'm ready to eat real food again! So here goes nothing. Also, I will start Mind Gym over, I have no class 3 week nights a week, so I will just do my Mind Gym with my regularly scheduled homework!

Ready, Set, GO!

The last few days...

...have positively sucked. But its still positive thoughts. I've been sick, I am getting better, and the entire time I was telling myself I'd get better, I only felt like a little yuck yuck, I kept my head high. I even kept my composure for the most part when I had to tell the man I love that I would see him soon enough in 9 weeks as I saw him off to the airport on the 3rd. Trying not to cry because your throat is raw sucks monkeys. But its 62 days till he graduates. Barrett Jackson starts Monday for me, so I will be working heavily on my mind set, as it had been working. In fact the last Friday of last year was AMAZING. I had more work than I thought I could do, and it only took me an extra ten min to do what I needed to do. When I got into a jam at work on Thursday because UPS delivered late, I simply didn't worry about it. In as little as 6 days of hard work on my brain I've started to rewire it. Don't get me wrong I still get overwhelmed...who doesn't though? Anyway. 62 61 days because I'm almost going to bed. I'm so excited!

Night, peaceful positive thoughts
