It’s a new year, a new day, and a new 30-day yoga challenge by Yoga With Adriene is here. I’ve tried to complete Adriene’s challenges several times over the years but last year was my first time actually succeeding. Blogging about it each day REALY helped me hold myself accountable, so we’re doing that again. Welcome to the new challenge, y’all! (I’m amped.)

Is it just me or is this month flying by? I’m not complaining, though; I can’t wait to start my part-time hours at work in Feb. Speaking of work, I’ve been tasked with writing a bunch of articles by next week (at least five, I think) and I’m not feeling that. I’m not interested in writing articles and I definitely expressed that during my interview. I distinctively remember my supervisor saying “We already have a strong group of writers. What we’re looking for is someone to take on the more visual aspects of communications.” That is the sole reason why I accepted the position.

I just want to create. Why is it so hard for employers to be honest about what they want? She also told me that I would be backup for really busy times that she described as “rare.” Should I have taken that to mean she was basically going to have me write often? Maybe. I don’t know. I feel like employers should just be honest. Jobs always accept me for one position but then have me do other things that I am capable of doing. This is only my second week working there, so maybe I’m getting ahead of myself. We’ll see.

I‘m not sure who asked for a Maya Angelou quarter but… okay. I swear, this government stay doing things that we never ask for. Anyways, I’m sleepy — good night!

Hey, is this a safe space? *Whispers in shame* I’m not doing yoga today. I know it’s only day 10 but it was also my first full day of work since August and that nine to five schedule took a lot out of me. I had like five meetings today starting a 9 a.m. and I just can’t. It was a pretty good day, though. Unlike my last job, every meeting I attended felt necessary, productive, and effortless. I think I’m going to like this new bunch…

Hey, hey! I’m not really in the writing mood today. Yoga came and went. See ya tomorrow.

When I tell y’all I needed this stretch, I NEEDED this stretch. The back, the feet, and the legs: aching. I woke up this afternoon (yea, I had a late start) to a fridge full of nothing on top of nothing, so I had to re-up on everything. And then, when I got home, I spent like two hours chopping and bagging vegetables. Standing up is a workout. You know when you stand for so long that it shows itself in redness at the bottom of your feet? Das me. Anyways, one week of yoga down. Aeeeowww!

The booster shot got me down bad, so I’m going to make this short. My arm is sore and my body doesn’t feel like doing anything but resting. I’m skipping today but I’ll be back on it tomorrow.

I ain’t even gon’ lie to y’all: I almost skipped today’s session. I had two meetings, a plate full of work and things to familiarize myself with concerning work (not complaining, I’m just a little anxious because I want to do well), and I got my booster shot a few hours ago. Needless to say, today was a busy day and I am tired. Today is supposed to be my Friday but I think I’m going to work the rest of the week to make sure I get off to a good start. Oh, I also have to finish making some flyers for the organization that I volunteer with. Hmm… I’ll figure it out. Yoga was great, by the way!

My workout before yoga consisted of a ton of squats and lunges, so today’s stretches were wel-comed! Today was pretty much a breeze on the yoga front, actually. One thing I noticed was that my balance isn’t as bad as I thought it was. I tried doing Tree Pose (I think that’s what it was) on my bare floor instead of my sturdy but cushiony workout mat, this time, and… voila! I experienced little to no swaying. That’s such a minor thing but it makes me happy. Lol 😊

Today was such a busy day: I started a new job, had a bunch of things to review/edit for the organization that I volunteer with, and I made some chili. If I didn’t look at my workout mat, I would have forgotten all about this challenge. Anyways, it was a good session. Though my arms didn’t struggle as much as they did yesterday, today’s session felt more like a workout (ya girl sweated). I feel like we held the poses longer, so that’s probably why. Whatever the reason, I’m going to sleep well tonight because of it.

My arms were not happy today. I did a full body workout before yoga, so my Planks and Downward-Facing Dogs were a bit shaky (I even collapsed a few times). I’m counting today as a win though because I pushed through. My favorite part of the session was probably the Three-Legged Dog poses. Yea, I know that’s odd to say since I just mentioned how shaky my tired arms were, but there’s something about that pose that I enjoy. I don’t know what it is. 🤷🏾‍♀️
