Thursday afternoon.
It's been a good week so far. I was exhausted last weekend, working days, shifts at the clinic and nights spent receiving new bison, but I caught up with sleep on Sunday and Monday night.
Eating is going very well, healthy homemade food, I increased my protein intake and it feels right. Old good habits are coming back!
Last night was my second Kettlebell class, and it was so much fun! At the end of the class I went to talk to Stef the teatcher. She complimented me on my form, I explained the previous Crossfit training and we started talking about our workouts. I am so glad I joined this class, she is a really nice, positive and dynamic person! She even offered me to borrow her KB if I want to train at home, and seemed interested in learning Olympic Weightlift. Who knows, maybe I found a new workout buddy!!
This weekend I will be at school, We'll have an exam first thing Saturday morning and I don't feel ready... It's ok, I still have time to review the muscles before the test. I can't believe the final exam is almost here, only 2 months left!
Time to get ready for my shift at the clinic tonight. Hopefully the roads are not too bad, we're having heavy snow fall since last night.
Happy day buddies!

Sunday morning.
Yesterday I was working at the clinic. We have a studio that offers yoga classes and various workout classes. In the morning, before I started my shift, there was an intro class to Kettlebell. I joined, I was curious. It was so much fun! I decided to sign up for the next 2 months. Call me crazy, my schedule is already so packed but since I have to go there anyway... It just has to be one hour earlier.
Ok, now time for a ranting about Thomas, sorry this is the only place I can talk about it!
Thomas called me on wednesday saying he needed my help. He decided to do something about himself, quit smoking, eat food, exercise. I was very happy for him. But scared at the same time.
Of course, when we had met last sunday he was nice, and loving, and open to discussion. I had a great time.
When he asked for my help, I clearly told him I wouldn't be his friend. I wouldn't help him to feel better and see him go away after that. He said he would never use me. I reminded him that when we were together he had this, the healthy eating, the workouts, that I had offered him a million times to join me, he just said: "I know, I never had good things happening to me before and I don't know how to react." I call Bullshit!!
And to be honest, I am wondering if he is bi-polar or if it's a real wake-up. The way he approaches his new goal is scary. All at once, no respect for his injured shoulder, he bought the P90X program and wants to start it right away, full force.
Conclusion, I went to his place yesterday afternoon, to help him figure out the nutrition part, but he already had looked into it. We watched a workout DVD, I found it very difficult, hundreds of pullups and pushups, and tried to tell him maybe that was not a good idea with his shoulder. He looked at me and said: "but I have to!"
That kind of "sealed the deal". He will get obsessed with this the same way he was obsessed last year with the backyard project, to the point where he fell into depression from exhaustion and dumped me in the process. I am done with this. Not getting hurt twice.
Life is full of surprises... Happy Sunday buddies!

Wednesday morning.
happy new Year everyone! I wish you all the best, everything you need, you want, and much more!
It's been the sadest and most depressing holiday ever for me. I really felt alone and had nothing to look forward to. The truth is, Thomas called me on Christmas day and said he was thinking of me, asked me what I was doing, told me he was sad and lonely. After 3 days crying my eyes out, I called him back to beg him to leave me alone for good, not contact me anymore because it was too hard. I said it, he repeated he was thinking of me and then I found myself offering him to meet for a coffee... He is so depressed and lost it's scary. He admitted that it had never happened to him before. So we talked a little bit, hugged, kissed and finally slept together. And here I am now, stupid stupid stupid... Back to square one, not able to think about anything else, not knowing if we can make it work or if it was just a goodbye sex.
Since my last journal I have been exercising, eating as well as possible (a couple of days without food, due to above mentioned sadness though).
My work at the clinic is going very well, I was given a few tips to improve my technique by the owner of the centre, she is a therapist for 15 years and she is amazing. I'm feeling more confident everyday, people give me huge tips and I think, even if I'm still far from being a therapist, that I'm doing a good job.
I have no idea what's going to happen, at work, in my personal life, I am totally lost and it's a strange way to start the year. May I see the light soon!
Have a great day, I've been thinking about you buddies very often!
