I forgot how wonderful it feels to run with music. I have not wanted to carry my phone with me while I am running, so I finally invested in good Bluetooth earbuds. I feel like I’m dancing when I’m running with music on. I went for 5 miles and eventually that runner high kicked in, my legs just were going automatically, and the thoughts just started flowing easily, stress started melting away. Yes I came home and ate a full tub of ice cream, but really, it’s not even necessarily a bad thing. I also was so super charged from this exercise and the way I felt, and probably the sugar from the ice cream, that I took a huge step in my home purchasing and made closing cost budgets and got insurance quotes. These are once-scary adult activities, and I’m doing them on my own without any guidance except for the loan officer who is truthfully kind of ditzy, I think she’s new. That’s ok! So I’m reading a lot of financial advice online, Consulting the 60-year-old Men at my lunch table at work, and while he is just as clueless as I am, I run everything passed my husband and we are doing this together and fearlessly. The costs are astronomically higher than I ever would have imagined, and that just is demonstrative of my naïveté. It also makes me very proud of the fact that I am working for my 44th day in a row without a day off tomorrow, and I am netting a huge paycheck every single week to go towards this cause of hours. My husband has also been picking up tons of overtime, and we’ve been doing this and still loving and appreciating one another. I believe that working towards the school has strengthened our marriage, and ours is one That was already strong as steel to begin with.
I am very humbled by all of the work I did today on purchasing this dream home, and even more so impressed that it is in fact achievable. We are purchasing a 100 year old character home, two stories, four bedroom. And it has hardwood floors throughout. It truly only needs a new coat of paint in the bedrooms, and it is move in ready. I have to go to sleep now, but I will be dreaming of painting. Be kind to yourself, and while you’re at it, do something marvelously yummy for yourself. Maybe it will cost calories and maybe it won’t. Regardless of what it is, indulge. You are worth it.
