Ah, long time - no post. To say I've been a little occupied would be an understatement. Since Halloween I left my job in Boston, moved to Texas, completely unpacked and moved into my apartment (seriously, there are no unpacked boxes left), and started my new job on Monday. Whew.
So backing up a bit...on November 11 I got in the car with Jack and Kate and a few possessions and made the 28 hour drive to Texas, arriving on Wednesday morning. As luck and the moving gods would have it, the moving truck arrived there when I did. What followed was a bevy of unpacking and trips to Target. I knew there was no way I was going to be able to start work the following Monday with a clear mind if I wasn't completely unpacked. By Saturday evening, I was done. Sunday I rested. I got to visit with Jim and Billie-Jo and the kids. We had a delicious lunch and I got lots of hugs from Jackson and Lila.
I also made sure to get over to the gym across the street and sign back up. I've been a few times already, predominantly to use the pool. I've done laps and also taken an AquaFit class. Oh how I love having a gym with a pool. I'd love to go back to another class tonight after work, but I have a Board of Trustees meeting that I've been requested to attend. AquaFit will have to wait until Saturday. One of the bonuses of the move is that I have more time (and energy) to work out. When I was taking the train to Boston for work I would leave the house at 6am and walk in the door close to 7pm. When I would get home I just wanted to relax a bit, have dinner, and go to bed. I was only working out on weekends. My commute is now 20-30 minutes. I'm not so rushed in the morning and I have time to make it to classes at the gym that start at 6 or 7.
