Pitty Party or Party Planning

This blog thing is so new to me! I had started this new post writing about being pissed and my reasoning. After writing a bit, I decided I needed to go exercise to get out of my funk. Fortunately, I was able to do just that, until I came home to finish this blog post.  Yup funny thing, sometimes you need to actually hit save to keep your work. 

So why was I pissed? Well, I was throwing a bit of a pitty party for myself. No worries, I didn't invite anyone else to join me. I was pissed that others are able to  enjoy a glass of wine or pint of beer and not have a problem. I was pissed that some people are able to decide not to drink and not feel like everyone sees a flashing light above them informing everyone in the room that they can't have an alcoholic drink. I was pissed that I may never get to enjoy a bottle of wine with a friend at sunset or participate in a beer festival. 

Thankfully, I wasn't able to stay at my private party for long. I had plans to walk so I got my ass to the track. As I walked with my friend, I started forgetting that I wasn't going to have that pint of beer. I started to not care, for today. Instead I looked forward to trying my tonic water and juice when I got home. 

What was really cool as I walked, was being reminded that when I used to walk every day with this friend (way back when), I wasn't drinking much at all. Those lattes truly were just that, no Baileys added:) My focus was on exercise and trying to eat healthier. 

Maybe doing activities from my past aren't all bad.  Here's to a new type of party.  Three days of exercise and many more in my future.
