My husband and I went on a hike with a friend this weekend. It was absolutely awesome to be back outside again. I couldn't tell you the last time I went on a hike it's been so long.
After my field research was complete I shipped my hiking boots back to the manufacturer because the seams were coming undone and I only had them a couple of months. I never did get new boots, however, because they're just so blame expensive. I feel like once I get a new pair I'll feel whole again.
I went looking back through my pictures of Belize and the river work I did. Such great times. I miss it so much and really look forward to doing field work again. A GREAT feeling to have considering I went through a long period of time when I didn't want to think about hiking or going into a forest or anything.
I love love love love love the work I'm doing in the rec center right now and the people with whom I'm working. Everyone is very mindful of their "wellness" and generally upbeat. I can't imagine my life without fitness and positive people now.
I'll have to try to find some way to meld the two together.
P.S. My friend over at Wandering Thoughts wrote about having a glass of wine while working on her prospectus. I tried that tonight and it didn't work so well. My written words have a certain slant and letters keep getting transposed. Perhaps I should work up to a full glass? :)
