day two of lifeguard certification is complete.

we spent 2 1/2 hours in the water tonight.

im SERIOUSLY PRUNED. and my eyes itch like all get out cuz you cant wear goggles, cuz what lifeguard jumps into to save someone wearing goggles right???

3 more classes to go.

it been great, and i got a very serious compliment from our Assistant Aquatics Director on how GREAT im doing. makes me feel good knowing that i can keep up w the 15-16-17-18 year old set, and hold my own.

i had a GREAT conversation w one the co-instructors about what it would take to become an instructor myself and what certification i should get so that i can teach swimming and coach.

always thinking ahead.

what a GREAT compliment that would be especially if i do the paraprofessional gig during the school year then do lifeguarding/swim instructing/swim team coaching in the summer.

got a plan and im working it.

woo!

and i had an epiphany this evening.

that perhaps i dont need to schedule so much in the evening as i used to, and actually be home.

see. this is the thing. honestly.

i would schedule to take classes at the Y in the evening, not every evening mind you, but enough so that i didnt have to be home w DH. with him moving out, i wont have to do that anymore.

LIGHT BULB MOMENT.

plus. w all that will transpire, it will be good for me to be home. get us all settled into the 'new normal'.

thats not to say that J. wont be here w the boys a few evenings a week - weve set it up that way so that he can still take an active role, and they can be here in the house causing the least amount of disruptions.

it will be workable moving forward.

im just thinking that i wont need to 'runaway' anymore.

what. a. relief.

woosh!

so looking forward to the new schedule, im gonna save my workouts for the daytime as much as possible.

schedule 1-2 days of subbing, whenever the opportunity presents itself, and just work around that schedule.

what w the weather breaking, i'll be able to get out and ride/run more often and what w the pool opening Memorial Day weekend, i can get in my swims outdoors when me and the boys are at the community pool.

im feeling really really good about life moving forward.

though i know its going to be FULL of all sorts of adjustments as we transition and find our new normal, im RIDICULOUSLY excited as well.

how is that possible, you ask?

i dunno.

i ask myself that everyday.

just good to be living in that sorta space as we make this transition.

Here is a tip for everyone

DO NOT try to shift gears when you are out of the saddle and climbing a hill. There is potential for things to go bad.

what's on tap? I'm hoping to get enough work done today so when I leave for my dentist appointment at one I don't have to come back later. If that pans out I'll get my long run in this afternoon too

I cannot even imagine being dexterous enough to do anything but hang on while being out of the saddle going up hill.
