It's hard to believe it's been over 2 years since I started this blog!! What happened?? I'm not sure...I started off strong and then just got sidetracked or sideswiped...or maybe a combination of both. Anyway, I'm back doing what I love and it feels good!
But it hurts a little...like when you start exercising again. I just started working out with a group of ladies on Saturday morning. Man - they KILL.IT. I feel great after I'm done but the next 2 days...ugh...my muscles are screaming at me ('Why, oh why did you do that to us?!'). I remember that I used to be a regular Y goer, attending Body Pump and other aerobic classes. I was running several times a week, too. I was a crazy, healthy person...and then, just like that, I just got busy with life - a graduate school program, 2 kids growing fast and furious, a career/job - yeah...
BOOM
It just sort of all changed and now, I'm back to square one. Working myself out and remembering those muscles.
And that's what I needed to do with my Zentangles.
I'm setting realistic goals, though. Maybe not every day will I get to tangle, but I'm getting into the habit of coming into my studio and doing a few each week. That's a good start.
So here's to sore body and art muscles! May I remember how the initial pain feels and keep going so I don't have to start all over again. ; )
Cheers,
A
