I wrote this truly inspirational post and then the power blew out and then I had to go into work for a little bit to counteract the damage and then I came back and it said I could restore my page and I was like 'cool!' and it restored and I finished the post (it was most excellent, I assure you) and then I copied it just in case something happened and then something happened and when I pulled up a new post and went to paste it, it wasn't there to be pasted.

*breath*

Gone.

Poof.

C'est la vie.

Happy July 4th, regardless!

I've found some independence from negative thought lately. With each and every workout, I extricate myself bit by bit from my self-imposed judgments and criticisms as well as societal demands placed on females and especially females that are aging, as I am. I'm trying damn hard to fight gravity but also to give myself credit when I should. My body's doing what it's supposed to do. I just want to nudge it in a direction that will allow it to do what it's doing but more on my terms than those of gravity alone.

My workouts won't change the world, but they change my world and that's pretty damn awesome for me. A good ole endorphin rush can do wonders for my psyche and after a few months of regular weight workouts, I'll probably be a little less lumpy, which sounds exciting. Gives me something to look forward to.

Happy Independence Day, everyone!
