Alright... Starting to feel a bit better :)
I'll start off with a California recap first --
Huntington Beach is GORGEOUS. It has absolutely perfect weather (72-75 and sunny every day, with zero humidity). Talk about an active community! Everyone there is outside all day every day. If you want to lose some weight and need some motivation, this is definitely the place to go.
The BF had work on Wed/Fri, so I just hung out on my own and went to the beach. I managed to get a preeeeetty nice sunburn on the backs of my legs on Friday since I forgot to put sunscreen there. Now I'm paying for it.
Thursday was his 25th birthday, so we went to the Temecula area and did a wine tasting trolley. This adorable old school San Francisco trolley took us around to 4 different wineries where we got to taste 5-6 wines each. We had an absolute blast.
We also found him an apartment! It's perfect. 1 bedroom, new kitchen/bath, living room, dining room, ONE MILE FROM THE BEACH, and two miles from work. For his birthday I got him a new bike, so hopefully he'll be using that to its full potential!
Sunday was the sad day. (I'm already getting upset writing this) The goodbye at the airport was the hardest thing we've done so far. We've been together 2 years, and I had never seen him cry before until now. I think that was the hardest part. I cried like a little baby the entire five hour flight home, hence my horrible mood yesterday morning.
Yesterday was actually a pretty good day, despite the fact that I was seriously down in the dumps when I first woke up. Overslept by 45 minutes, and got to work an hour later than I wanted to. BUT once I got to work, things started looking up. Caught up on all my emails I missed from last week, had my yearly review with my boss (she says I'm doing fantastic, wants to give me more work to do, AND I'm getting a bonus!)
I did a little searching on flights to California, and booked my first flight to go visit for Columbus Day weekend! I booked it so early because it's only $280 for round trip non-stop from Philly to LA!!! I was SO happy. We were both under the impression that flights were about $500. Looks like my nice little work bonus will cover a few flights out there :) Plus, he'll be back for Labor Day/my birthday which is now only 30 days away!
I had an awesome workout at crossfit yesterday. First time there in almost a week and a half and it was awesome. I got a new PR for my power cleans - 105#. SO HAPPY!
BIG volleyball game tonight! We're currently undefeated (9-0) and playing the team we lost to in the playoffs last season.. REDEMPTION!!!
Happy Tuesday, buddies!
