You are gonna feel awesome when you are done! This will no longer be hanging over your head anymore… Weight lifted! :heavy_check_mark:Youve got this!! Just start from the beginning and work your way up… I am cheering for you!

Good for you, expanding your practice. When I was real fit a few years back I could do a headstand, as well as a few other advanced poses. Its rewarding once you get it down! I should really brush up on my skills. Feeling a little tight lately. Keep at it :pray:

Thats awesome! I realized today I am nowhere close… I have to maybe lose a little weight and strengthen my forearms a lot, but its nice to have something to work towards!
I found Boho Beautiful on youtube and she makes it look so effortless! Definitely excited to try some new stuff…

I’ve done so much organizing and gathering of paper work. I’ve also inquired about services with other CPA’s before settling with the 1st business I spoke to. I did a free consultation today with an awesome company that actually checks all of the unsettled documents with the IRS free of charge and discusses the best way to address it before offering services and then provides a quote. This makes so much more sense to me. I’m feeling a lot better about it today because I am very happy that 1) I’ve been able to save money over the past few months.
2) Have the desire to tackle this issue before the IRS starts discussing serious action, leins, levys, wage garnishment, etc.

I’m definitely better off sober handling this. Drunk me would just drink about it and bury my head in the sand.

@Bomdhil Nearly a month! Keep at it!

@Desire2ChangeToday Paperwork sucks. But once u get over this hump of dealing with paperwork hangover u will have a clean slate, and ur sober self will keep on top of it from now on!

I like that channel. And yes the forearms play an important roll in a lot of advanced or balance poses. I feel that planks/push ups help mine strengthen up pretty fast. I definitely need to get back into my fitness routine again. I used to be so motivated and excited for my next work out but not so much since the gyms closed. Still do my yoga at home tho, so better than nothing :woman_shrugging:

Today would’ve been our 4 year anniversary. I’ve been preparing for it (dreading it) for weeks, and yet it’s been no easier spending it apart. It was so difficult to not even send a text or anything, but I didn’t. It wouldn’t be fair to her.
I’m starting to feel like I need to try to forget in order to move forward…but god, I don’t want to forget. I don’t want to let go. It makes me so sad. Sometimes I think I don’t want to move forward, either…just stay where I’m at, rotting away in this stupid apartment. I hate this place, I have no home. Sometimes it doesn’t even feel like I have a choice. Watch the weeks and months go by like they’ve done, wishing away every single day until I get to go to sleep. Every day further and further from what now feels like some distant dream I had once. Just hurts more and for longer than anything I’ve ever been through.

I said I’d stay away and keep my yap shut until I figured this out, so I’ll stop it there. I just had to write something, somewhere.

Sending you a hug :hugs: I know it’s tough. Does she feel the same for you? Maybe you need to talk. People always think it’s best to stay quiet and forget but there’s obviously something still there. I’m feel for you :heart:

Thanks, yea, I’m plodding on through the days, feeling good :+1:

In the times we’ve spoken or met, I get the impression that she’s over it. She’s stronger than me and is better at removing the emotion from things and carrying on.
I have a lot of things I want to say to her, but I can’t unless I know for a fact that I want to try again. Big part of that will need to be me getting on board with having children. I still cannot answer that question comfortably despite all the thinking on it, reading, etc. I get the sense its too late either way.

That is super tough, hugs. Can u get out (tough with Covid I know) and do something to take ur mind off it? Long-term, are u doing things to fill ur time and occupy ur mind, so u feel less like u are just staying still?

Ya that’s something that definitely shouldn’t be considered lightly. I still thinking just telling her how your feeling isn’t a bad thing. Sometimes it’s hard to know which to listen to our hearts or brain. Trust your gut you’ll know the right thing and when it’s the right time. :heart:

I see @Rockstar24777wrote that you could chat with him; I think it may help, he’s in the same situation.
I’m glad you’re keeping in touch here. You’re such a good guy, I just know there’s good things coming your way, hun.:hugs::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
