my goals were 3-4 strength sessions (did 0), do stuff to make me faster (did), keep up healthy coping skills (still going strong - 41 days as of this AM!).
4 swims for 20,000 yards and 4 runs for 30 miles.
Week was pretty good. On Saturday morning I collected my brother, his girlfriend, and her mom from the airport. They're here for 2 weeks with more people coming later this week. We have some other family here too. This is lots of fun, but it is also exhausting. I had a ton of anxiety this weekend for various reasons, and I'm still not feeling totally settled. I'm so proud of myself for healthy coping. A big part of this for me is realizing I can just participate in what I want to particiapte in, take breaks to curl up with a book, and make sure I get enough sleep. Quality time > quantity time. I'm actually excited to go back to work today because I think it will help w some normalcy in routine and make me feel better.
Goals this week are the same as last but I'm really serious about the strength sessions this time!
this is probably going to be one of those weeks where I check in here about "another day of healthy coping skills done" because I am that unsettled right now. Anxiety SUCKS
maybe she's born with it, maybe it's chlorine
