That’s quite enough of that.
“When one door closes, another door opens.”
I have come to realize over the past two weeks (give or take a day) that I can’t have closure if I keep looking back. Yes, I need to learn from my experiences, and trust me, these recent lessons won’t fade. But, I can only move ahead with my future when I close that door to what was then. I’m sure I’ll have lapses, but it’s time…
Today, I’m kicking that door shut. I’ve had two weeks of feeling sorry for myself, and now I must move past this angst and grief. I’m ready… I woke up this morning and actually enjoyed the freedom of blaring my music and singing at the top of my lungs while I got ready for work.
I’ve also taken several people’s advice about starting a training program, and am already feeling healthier because of it.
So, get ready world… Tanya’s back.

ps: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODDLES! (My brother turns a year older today…)

Yay! It sounds like you’re having a great day and that is FANTASTIC. Welcome back, Chica!
I’m with Miranda ~ and if you’re looking for a workout partner let me know!
Thanks M… And C! And, I’d LOVE a workout partner! I have a gym in my building if that’s convenient for you? I prefer after-work, but with the option of a partner, I’d make time for you whenever!!
I’d work out with you too, but I’m far away. Anyways, YAY! I hope you have a fantastic day. That’s exactly what I meant in my comment. Do you grieving, but then get over it. This is your life. Take the time you need to look at it first and then close that door. Awesome!
I’m sure I can speak for everyone that we’re happy you can finally feel the freedom of blaring your music and singing at the top of my lungs while getting ready for work.
Um. Except your neighbours.
Thanks RDR! Too bad you weren’t closer! Weren’t you thinking of heading this way?
Shnewt:
I live waaaaaay too far away to join you at the gym. But rest assured if I ever find myself in your lovely burg, I’ll bring my running shoes.
I can’t tell you how happy I am to read this entry. The joy in your voice leaps off the screen. I continue to wish only the best for you.
Rock on T!
Hi Red Dirt Road
Hey Carmi… You are such a great friend, even if only in a digital form. You inspire me
Hey G! Thanks!
2 weeks seems like a short time to mourn the relationship to me but if you’re ready to move on, Tan, all the more power to you. Forward is the way to go.
Hey Dave… Perhaps you’ve misunderstood my language in this post. I’m still hurting, but I’m choosing to look forward, not back, now. That doesn’t mean I’m ready to date, but it does mean that I’m ready to start thinking positively about what my future holds. I can’t sit and grieve for another month — It’s not going to do me any good, and ultimately, it’s not going to bring back the person I’ve lost.
