Hopes up!

Feeling as bright as it would be the beginning of spring! Well it isn't, but yesterday I felt quite good and decided to go and take a chance on bodypump express. I promised to take it easy and stop immediately if it would feel bad... but it didn't! The ½ hour workout was just what I needed after the fever and having this flu. It was just the right amount of exercise, you should have seen my smile doing those squats. I also realized that despite all my complaints of not having the time or fit to do as much as I would like to I still do quite a lot. I skate, run, do yoga, workout in bodypump and other muscle toning classes and dance too. I even remember to do little exercises during the day, since sitting the whole 8 hour in the office is bad , I stretch my hands and other muscles too. I don't need to worry about skipping a week, really. Phew.

Today I wanted to do another test exercise, this time more aerobic one. After workday I went to the gym to run and for the first 10 minutes my breathing was hard because of my blocked nose but after that it was awesome. I got high on exercise. I'm officially turned out to be a sports junkie. Some of my friends have maybe noticed this earlier than I have, I've been receiving such comments lately and maybe haven't thought of them earlier. Why is it that we are often so blind to our own habits, skills, faults and looks? I for myself regret not saying the truth to my friends, who are awesome, beautiful and keep me up when I'm about to fall. None of them would be my friends if they wouldn't be the perfect match for me, and they are! I love meeting new people but I don't make friends easy, even though I'd love to be able. I need something to bond me with my friends, something deeper we share. Luckily those girls in our team are the best: crazy enough, relaxed, fun, a great bunch to skate with.

It's Friday and I'm making Karelian hot pot with mashed potatoes and carrots. Our cats are sleeping, I'm home alone and radio is playing night club hits. After I finish this I'll dance in the kitchen till I'm bored and grab a book so I can disappear under a blanket.

We made it yesterday!
