Crazy Anniversary Week

It's already Thursday! It's been a busy week. I've tried my best not to let if affect my workouts. Had an appointment Monday, plus I'm now training K which has kind of thrown a wrench into my schedule. We meet at the gym Tuesday and Thursday at 6:30. I get out of work at 5 so there's not much point in me going home. What I've decided to do is go in for my workout at 5:30 and then just wait for her. I train for muscle growth and better performance during obstacle races, so I do a split routine (back, bicep, leg day then a shoulder/chest/tricep day with core on both days) but with K I opted for 2 days of full body work. I think this will be better for fat loss. We're not going to be doing the same exercises plus I should really focus on training her instead of trying to squeeze in a workout for myself.

Staying in the gym late means running in the mornings is gonna be tough. I think I will start running at night instead, probably around 8. It'll be a weird adjustment but I can do it.

The free trial for my personal trainer cert is done, so now I'm ready to commit and actually sign up for the course. Studying will take a big chunk out of my already limited free time. I waste most of my hours at my job where I am bored and uninspired all day. But that's not gonna change just yet. Plus in addition to all the other stuff I do I still have to do chores, cook, buy groceries, etc. Honestly I have no idea how I'm gonna have time for it all!
But I will do it. Somehow I will find a way. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I will have to work very hard and dedicate my time to this for the next 6 months. No half assing. This is my next test and I am going to pass!

Amidst all the changes, I celebrated my wedding anniversary yesterday! We have been together 11 years but yesterday was our 4 th year married. We've already done a lot and grown so much, and now is a pivotal time for both of us with my career change and him getting out of the Army. I'm looking forward to see where life takes us next.

He doesn't usually go crazy with gifts but this time he did! He got me flowers, perfume, and a mint chocolate chip ice cream cake! We sat on the couch, ate chicken wings and watched a movie. It was just what I needed.
