My Life Thus Far

It Was No Big Deal

I'm so tired, I can barely see straight. I've had a full day. No complaints here, I'm just REALLY looking forward to a good night's sleep!

I slept in a little this morning, had a leisurely breakfast (a whole grain English muffin with Nutella, a banana, white chocolate strawberry yogurt and green tea), then went for a 2 mile run. I would have ran longer, but I had to go to work. I had the 12:15-4:45pm shift in the weight room today!

Can I just say, I think I've found the perfect profession! I get paid to work out, help others reach their goals and socialize with really great people! VS is great too, but in a different way and for different reasons. Working in a fitness field makes me feel so very rewarded! I think because it's something I consider a hobby and enjoy doing even if I wasn't getting paid.

I was a little anxious about work right before I got there (as I was driving across town). Today was my first solo shift. I didn't have another fitness assistant there to help me. I kept wondering what I would do if someone asked for my help, needed a spot, wanted to schedule a training session, what to say if the phone rang, if I'd remember all the inventory stuff. Everything I could worry about, I did. But once I got there, all that anxiety melted away. It's the same weight room I work out in almost daily. I've been trained, I'm a fast study, it was no big deal. I was right, it went smooth as could be. My biggest problem was not being able to find two bench collars, but they showed up eventually :)

I need to work on my Y Story. I've been mulling it over in my head, thinking about what I want to say. How I want to say it and all that. I re-read a few of them on my way out tonight just to see how those individuals went about sharing their stories. I think I'll pretend I'm writing a short diary entry, that should work.

I've got to go to bed now, I'm so tired. I know I'm going to be sore tomorrow, but that's okay. Pain is progress :)
