And now….two things that I am proud of myself for….hmm.  Would it be bad to - again use “dragging myself out of bed to go for a run”?  Yea, I guess so.  Every day should be something new.  So…

1) I had to work with someone tonight that I have had some less than positive experiences with - shall I say, “cocky male chauvinist”?!;)  Those types get nowhere with me;)  HOWEVER, instead of holding a grudge or treating him poorly, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and I was pleasantly surprised to see that he was actually quite pleasant, easy to talk to, and good to work with.  I may have high expectations of people (including myself!) but I will admit that I always give people second chances and never hold grudges.  If people show me that they can change, I treat them appropriately.  I like that I can do that.

2) Man…when you have high expectations of yourself, it’s damn hard to think of things you’re proud of!  Ok….I am proud of myself for being a team player.  Tonight, there were a few situations in which I easily volunteered my assistance or agreed without complaint (depending on the circumstance) to help out my colleagues.  I believe in people supporting one another and in thinking of those outside of ourselves.

Two things that I am thankful for:

1) this one is totally weird and out of the blue but I am thankful that my parents sacrificed some of their income/money to make sure that I got braces as a kid.  I had some ugly ass teeth!  I mean, we’re talking hannibal lector mask and all!

If that’s not some scary headgear, I don’t know what is!  (I did use it to scare my friends during sleepovers;) - I’m a prankster like that;)).  I had a small jaw (still do - EMBARRASSING!), crooked teeth, and an under-bite = HOT!!  And, honestly, a nice smile is so important!  And now my smile is one of my best features!;)  So thank you mom and dad!!:)  Forever grateful! FYI - that pic isn’t of me.  It’s of some other poor kid who hopefully handled the wicked headgear as gracefully as I;)

2) I am thankful that I am a compassionate and empathetic person.  Sometimes, feeling as deeply as I tend to feel about the pain others feel is quite challenging but I like that I seem to be able to channel other people’s emotions and that it helps me to understand them, myself, and the world better.

Four goals for tomorrow:

1) tomorrow is a day of rest for my marathon training and I work a night shift again, so I want to get in a quick workout but not go to the gym so…..

100 pushups, 200 situps, 100 burpees, 4 minutes of mountain climbers.

2) two more job applications (BOTH which will require cover letters this time;))

3) FINISH the EPIK application

4) begin my financial timeline for my bankruptcy discharge application.


I'm Kim and I am a 32 year old gay woman that is on a mission to find happiness and contentment. I have always considered myself to be optimistic and to see the good in everything; howevever, I have also had this nagging sense of fear that has prevented me from being truly happy. I am ready to take some big personal risks, in order to change this and see what life brings me.
