Breathe…

It’s something I have to remind myself to do more than you might think! I’m a fairly anxious kinda gal and sometimes need to just center and focus on my breathing. Swimming can also make you fixated on breathing-hypoxics were always my LEAST favorite part of practice! (They are drills where you hold your breath a given length of the pool and then when you come up, you sprint! Since you’re body is already deprived of oxygen, you can actually feel the lactic acid *burning*! It’s actually a horrible experience, but apparently builds your lung capacity and muscles.) Adam and I did a little leisure swimming yesterday morning-no anxiety there! Then we drove up to our new apartment. Fearing the worst from our last experience, we keyed in expecting a herd of goats or something worse to have moved in, BUT we were very pleasantly surprised. It looked awesome! Everything is pretty much perfect and we unloaded the first of many more boxes to come. Got home in time for the start of football season, a homemade pizza, some laundry, and I whipped up a layout for the GMD Challenge on “Movement”.

I spent all day Saturday writing for and editing the NYLN newsletter, so this was my little reward for all that hard work. Unfortunately for my blog design dreams, I wasn’t distracted by the blinking lights of Photoshop, but there’s still hope. I have one more week before life gets a little crazy. Gotta get back to writing today because I have several *huge* projects coming up!

Have a happy Monday!
