birthday, new job and teaching yoga

Since my last post I have had my birthday, got a new job closer to home, taught my first yoga class and gotten wiser each day. :)

My birthday was super fun! Steve and I went to SLC because Boise didn't have any snow and I don't feel like it is my birthday if there is no snow on the ground. SLC definitely had snow. Steve surprised me by taking me to a Jazz game, which was a blast because we got dinner and other goodies and we got a W. So it was a win win, oh and the Jazz bear gave me a hug. Then my mom and Steve decide to gather family and friends to celebrate my birthday without telling me. It was a great time spending time with everyone and made me miss home. We also went snow shoeing which was pretty amazing and it crazy what and where you can go in those snow shoeing! Overall great 29th birthday!

Can you see me?

My new job is less than 10 blocks away from where we live! AMAZING!!! I do miss my Caldwell peeps though. It was hard to say goodbye to some of my patients, but everyone understood why. I grew so much working at Altitude and now I am able to bring my knowledge to Therapeutic Associates. It has been 2 weeks since I started and I am loving it. I enjoy the learning environment and how everyone is approachable.

For my first whole hour teaching yoga I was nervous, but a good nervous. I did my homework and I went to a whole lot of hot hour class, so I had it in my body and mind. Before teaching I went over the first part because I screw up. As the time approached the nerves kept creeping up. Once I walked into the room nerves were bouncing off the wall, but when I began to speak the nerves froze for a wee bit. Til I screwed up on the section I reviewed 30mins before! I was battling internally and saying to myself what the crap, ya dork! I found my footing and started to sail again. It was such an amazing experience to be able to teach and the student to follow. I definitely felt more confident with my movements and words, even though I had a few bumps. I was on a high the rest of the night!
Now I am trying to reach out to all the studios to see if they need any instructors and meeting up with someone to chat about potentially teaching next week! Super excited!!

My 4th annual is scheduled so stay tuned to hear from me in March!


Happy birthday to Katelyn yesterday

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the ...

boise

This past week was a wake up for our Wrigley. We had a dog trainer come over to our house and teach us how to break his habits of aggression towards other dogs and people. We learned how Wrigley communicates and when to give affections and praise and when not to. Now that we have the proper tools rather than the wrong ones. We are excited to help train Wrigley's behaviors into more friendly ones. This process is going to be long, but just like our surrogate process we are going to dive in and handle whatever is to come. With the surrogacy I have spoken to my parent's neighbor about being our attorney and she agreed to represent us.  This weekend we headed up to Boise. Steve and I have always liked the idea of Boise, so we went to go and checked out some places. We got these bikes at the hotel we were staying at for FREE and rode around downtown Boise. We had a blast riding around to all the places. On the way home, we stopped to see Idaho State women's soccer play. They be...

New Day, New Chapter, New....????

After the other days SHOCKing experience, I had to go into the clinic today to have my device interrogated.   Basically find out why I got shocked…. Was it warranted?? My device is set to SHOCK me if my heart gets beating too fast, like 180bpm or higher. Which I guess I excreted myself too much yesterday. This is a little bit upsetting, I was hardly up the trail and I got shocked. How am I supposed to do anything physical and not get shocked? Think about trying to exercise but also having to worry about a horse kicking you in the chest at any time.   Leaving the clinic I was pretty bummed… Is my heart just getting worse? Anyway, I went to work at straws and about an hour into work the clinic was calling me. I didn’t want to answer because I had a feeling my INR would be too low again and I would have to be admitted to the hospital. Anyway, I answered and Dr. Kia was on the line. He said “I heard you left upset from the clinic today?” I figured he was about to give me a pe...
