The Rededication of The List

So recently people have told me that they have read my blog. I know that I slack in writting it so it doesn't really inspire people to keep reading it, but if you happen to be reading this, I challenge you to to find something on my list that you want to do and make me do it with you.

I think with all the moving and life changes I have lost my way with the list. kind of like how I feel like crap about myself when I stop working out for no reason other than I am being lazy. in this case I have been telling myself work work work, but work is frustrating the crap out of me recently so I need to get back to the list in hopes that it brings everything else back into perspective, that was the whole point anyway

So again I say challenge me, also I plan to make some alterations to the list just in case you memeorized it

So I ran the Harpoon 5M for the Angel fund. Overall a very amusing day. As you can see from the group shot & results we had quite the cast of characters, and most importantly the stach made a weekend appearance. I def need to start actually running again if i am gonna do the 10M & 1/2 Marathon. I had a terriable race, definately didn't prepare myself. But we got drunk and it was still a blast

I also made it to Yankeee Stadium & Citi Field recently. Yankee statidum was a Yanks vs Rays game which was terriable for a sox fan, I had no one to root for, but I had company seats on the field, they were ridiculous. The Rays won, whatever. Citi was for Felice's Birthday,a Yanks vs Mets game and for the most part i was surounded by Mets fans so we had a common intrest. Mets won too.

Checking in

So I am coming up on 4 months here in Hoboken, which is as long as I was in AR. All I can really say about that is it doesn’t feel the same. I felt like I had been in AR forever and couldn’t wait to get out, but I feel like I just got here. Maybe because I have been living in a tiny apt knowing it was just until I got settled, and I don’t feel like I am there yet. It also helps that I actually know people here and that even the ones I don’t know I can relate to. Anyway on to the list…

So when I went to festival 8 I got this “token” or whatever you want to call it. So I am 5 months into #58, and I finally have a picture of what it looks like to share. I will say there have been a couple times that I couldn’t find it for a couple days but it always turned up. Even though it isn’t my keys or wallet or phone, I treat it like it is. When I first found this idea in some other list I thought it was cool but wasn’t sure how it would affect me, but now 5 months in, I think it is finally getting clearer, the real question is how hard will it be to give away, and who will I give it to?

I have been working on my cooking skills, I made some chicken parm and just need to keep trying to make new things. Yesterday I signed up for the Harpoon 5mi in Boston on June 5th, so I guess I need to start training again so I can cross off #1.

I spend a lot of time either working or blowing off steam, but I think I need to find new outlets, because if I want to be successful I need to work harder but I also need life balance and I think going forward I can pull it off

Its been awhile...

Ok so it has been awhile since I last wrote anything on here which I am pretty sure is exactly the opposite of what I wanted to do but the whole moving thing and new job thing has pretty much taken all my time. I also recently passed the one year of this blog and didn’t even manage to get a post up. Long story short I have been trying to cook more, although I seemingly make the same things over and over so that I need to work on that and I still have my token and am coming up on 3 months.

Honestly I started the blog but more specifically the list to find some kind of direction. Oddly enough it has been a weird year and in an odd way the list has helped me get thru it. I plan on plugging away at the list but it is definitely going to have to take a backseat to work, although without a job I wouldn’t be able to do most of the things on the list in the 1st place so until next time….
