A new chapter in my life. Mood
Sunday, March 8, 2009 | A Rambling story

Had a yoga session that was comliments of my mom this morning. went well but as always just reminds me of the old days. brought back good memories of when I was a regular yogalaties goer. I used to love to attend those classes with my friend Gwen. She was really a great motivator to keep it up. Knowing I Was going to see friends at the gym really just keep me going.

 

I went even if they weren't there come to think of it. I miss those days. Seeing what limitations my body gave me today wasn't all sad. It was interesting too just to know what I am able to persue. That was the point of a private session. The yoga teacher had prepared a personalized print out of a daily routine I could do that is about 15 min long and based toward migraine. Some of it. 

 

Some was just modified for my "special limitations". Nice. I am going to try to do it three days a week and regain a bit of strength in my upper body and some flexibility too. 

 

I am happy and sad today. It is hard to discribe. I feel I am on the let down of my last day at my job. I feel totally beat from just the emotional stress that has been there about my last day for about a week now. I am glad that is done with and I Feel I will be starting a new chapter in my life. I will be looking for a new job yes but I will have this time in between again of pinching pennies again and being here at home a lot. I had adjusted to that before but then got used to being away from home around people and working. I guess I just don't adjust as quickly as I used to. ahhh ha. 

 

I want to badly to reconnect with friends i have lost touch with over the last year and get some projects done here at home that have been on hold while I have been suffering from exposure to allergy elements at my job. I have been sick as a dog for a year all due to work. Yep....I can really say " i was allergic to my job". Who can really say that? I shouldn't say that too loud ...probably lots of people. 

 

So......I feel a bit lost. I feel sad....I feel lonely again. I had finally made new friends. I haven't followed up on any leads to invites I had while working at my job. Friends I made at the vitamine store that suffer too and so on. I mean....I should call them and ask them to lunch. I don't know why I don't. 

 

I gotta rest. PC screan is killing me.

    Glad to hear you are out of that environment - tho' I know that it's hard to live on fresh air (but in your case, I suspect that fresh air is exactly what you need my dear!). Take a few days to relax, & start back into the yoga again. Wish I could do it, but am too stiff. I'm going to start using my exercise bike again - I did some gardening a few days ago - & next day I was so very sore: forgot I'd been in bed for most of 3 mths! The new med. for migraine is going really well - have not had one for over 3 weeks, so think I'm back on the road to recovery. Even had a phone call from younger d. (it was on my message Bank) - sounds as if she wants to be friendly, which is good. Take care of yourself my dear, Fond regards, JaneD.
