So, it is the beginning of March…we have been married for 253 days! Yay! But that is not the purpose of this blog post.. since we are married, I am changing the name of the blog, and moving on….to a new focus…our life as a married couple and busy family of 4!!! Which is why I have not posted in so long…we are busy! So, back on New Year’s Day, I decided my resolution was to challenge myself this year…whether it be physical, mental, or just overcoming small obstacles that impede my daily happiness, I would try and challenge myself daily, and hopefully, along the way, find happiness in things big and small, and feel empowered and successful…easy, right?
Speaking of challenges…I have started running. I know, I know…who is this typing from Jessica’s computer?? Jessica running? Was anyone CHASING her? No folks, I have started running…I challenged myself to complete the Couch to 5K program and run in a 5K. So, the first week in January started my official couch to 5K transformation…and I started running. I successfully completed my first 5K on February 18th! Jason even ran with me & my friend, Val. Well, Valerie and I are still in training mode…for the San Diego Rock ‘n Roll Half Marathon this June!! I start the formal training next week, and have just been making easy runs since the 18th. Who knew this could be me? All from the challenge of running a 5K.
So, we recently got our bonuses from work, and I decided to invest my bonus in a DSLR camera. As such, I am trying to frantically learn how to use it before baseball starts. My hope is to not be shooting in Auto/green mode by opening ceremonies in mid-late April…so I am going to do a 30 day photo challenge (I got inspired thanks to Pinterest & this blog for the actual challenge)..and with that will be posting to the blog each days photos. Here goes nothing!
Day 1 is self portraits…so we will see what this evening brings!! I will post after I get my self portait done!
