Five things I’m struggling with right this moment

5 things I’m struggling with right now:

Eating Clean – Truth be told, I’ve struggled with weight my entire adult life. I’ve magically lost and found the same 50 pounds on more than one occasion. I know the key to sustained weight loss is eating foods that have nutritional value. To that extent I’m trying not to eat a lot of processed foods, but the rebellious side of me says ‘eff that healthy crap!’ So…The. Struggle. Is. Real. Folks.

Budgeting – Lately I’ve had to shell out a lot of money for unexpected expenses such as my car. As I’m sure you’ve figured out, I’m single so my money is my money. There are no obligations to anyone else which means I’m used to spending any way I want (of course I’m doing so in a responsible manner). But now that I’m slightly more mature, it occurs to me that I could be making better decisions with my money. The struggle = still real folks.

Running – Running is my zen time. But I either pulled or tore (depending on which specialist you ask) my labrum (located in the groin area, calm down Single Man MD), which has led to months of frustration and limited movement. I’m now back to 100% and am trying to get my running mojo back but…The Struggle = Alive and Thriving…

Getting Organized – I started a new, but temporary job as a team lead in my organization and I swear it’s sucking the life out of me (dramatic, party of one!). I’m all over the board since I started this job. I come home and the last thing I want to do is turn on my laptop to pay my bills, or any of the other things a responsible adult should handle. The weekends come and the rebellious side of me rears its head and says ‘lets hangout’! So…you guessed it folks, The Struggle = A Nasty One

Writing – Can I just point to the fourth bullet on this five bullet list? Sigh…as the author of this blog site, I’m responsible for the content and I’m woefully behind with consistently putting in the time, effort, and energy to ensure the quality is befitting of the good people who consume posts such as the space between my thoughts and other such nuggets.

The Struggle? = There is no one else I’d rather share it with. Thanks for your time today. Let me know some of your “Struggles’ in the comments.
