Just breathe…

Posted ravengirl on August 24th, 2008 | Filed under Tales of Victory!

Gotta remember that!  I am so excited!  I have a working interview at a doggie day spa on Tuesday!  I get to play with the puppies!!! Oh man…I just can’t believe it still…I just walked myself into the place and talked them into giving me a chance.  My RR is giving me a new life…I am changing…and I have to say…damn I love this new girl!!!  She rocks! :)  The books all said that when you start moving on your recovery you will determine what is missing in your life and instead of just bitching and moaning about it you will find a way to fix it!!!  That is what I am doing, I have a deep love of dogs…I always have…when I was a child I knew every dog in the neighborhood…mean or otherwise…and I loved them all…  My DH and DD are both allergic and our lifestyle hasn’t been such that it could support my love of big dogs in particular…  It is time to soothe that need…and I am finding a way!  I am also hoping that the work (since it is so active) will help the weight move a little quicker and that can only make me happier as well.  I am starting my taper off medication…I am exercising…and I now have the opportunity to have a job!!!  I can’t believe the changes in my life!!  I love them…

Weigh in was 164…again…and I just finished 30 mins on the elliptical…  At least I haven’t gained… :)

    You are a kindred spirit to me. I adore dogs. I wanted to work in some field that would let me have access to dogs all the time, but the thought of having to give up puppies to someone who seemed nice but wouldn’t be so great made me realize that would kill me.
    Yaaaay for finding that opportunity. You’re so right about how the right things are presented to us as we move through our lives - only we have to pay attention, and it sure seems like you are.
    Take Care…RubyJean

    Hey there! Thanks for your comment. I think I’m okay with the Big D. It lurks, but I’m stronger than I used to be. It really is time to move on for me. I’m happy and excited about it.
    I didn’t delete my blog here because I still intend to post about my healthy weighing less progress, and read about yours.
    Love,
    Ruby.
    PS, please, I need help with grooming my two gals, Shelby the golden retriever and Maya the mutt. Any tips you pick up, send them to me puhlease!
