I Can Do This

I got up early again and made it to the gym! There was no way I was going to make it to the gym early Tuesday monring, so I decided to go in the evening. Now usually when I go to the gym, I am not there to make friends and I don't chat people up. I stick to myself for the most part and I HATE working out with friends. Even though I can recognize people that work out at the same time as me. So anway, in the mornings when I was going pretty regularly there was a guy who also worked out with weights in the morning. We're talking 5 AM here folks. So I am strolling into the gym on Tuesday afternoon and he is at the gym. I see him and he smiles at me. I pick my hand up to wave at him and then I realize I don't really know this guy and this goes against my making friends at the gym. So I just say hi and he asks me where I have been. It was at this point I wanted to crawl into a hole because A. I feel like everyone can tell I have gained weight and loss muscle mass and B. He noticed I was gone. I told him I was going to try to start coming back in the mornings. He said something about me being missed and that he would see me tomorrow. He was there that morning and waived and said hello. He was also there today. However I beat him to the gym. So once I got over the initial embarassment, it felt sort of nice to be missed.

I'll be there tomorrow morning as well. I have kickball tonight too!

I just wanted to share a picture from my trip. That is my couisin's daughter with me.
