A weekend on my own terms…
Friday was a fun evening — hanging with friends, enjoying a night out. It was needed. I feel a little badly that I skipped a dance friend’s birthday dinner, but I was out, having fun and doing what I needed to be doing.
While we were out, a sales rep-type guy from Eli Lilly game over and started schmoozing with us. I very clearly did the ‘back off’ vibe. So, he hit on one of the other women. Once she left he started saying to me ‘so should I sleep ‘wink wink’ or go out dancing’. I think I said something like ‘you’ll have to decide that yourself’. He was slimey and married, so I just rolled my eyes.
Saturday I bailed out of running. I really have lost my running mojo and need to find it again. I don’t know where it is, but I need to somehow find it. Tomorrow I’ll have my running gear waiting by the door after work. My goal: To run before I sit and relax. I need to keep my running going — I’m going to be in my friend’s wedding (the date TBD) and I need to keep fit… Pictures and all that… 😀 So yeah, I need to re-find my running mojo. Tomorrow I have dinner plans, but I’ll go for a run right away and if I have to have dinner in running gear, so be it.
But I digress…
Once my lazy Saturday morning was done, I went to my dance class. It was fantastic. A great balance of people. I enjoyed the group of people in the class and I’m definitely feeling like I have a lot to work on. I enjoy that feeling because if I can work on it, it will improve my dancing. Afterwards we went to a new (to me) restaurant. A lovely vegetarian place on Main Street. Rather than dance, I went home and enjoyed a night off. It was nice to be at home, relaxing and not doing a thing. But apparently I missed a great evening. But I don’t mind
Today was a day of the weekly Sunday Brunch, walk along the beach and then home. But tonight I went out with One in 36 Million. It was lovely to catch up and chat more deeply than following up on each other’s blogs as we do to keep up with each other.
I’m feeling rested and relaxed. A great feeling. Now I just need to sort out finances, career, goals and directions, future — all of those things. But one thing at a time.
