One more year

Another year goes by and honestly I think this one will be one of the best of my life. The past 8 months have definitely changed me, but each day that goes by I am more convinced that it changed me for the better. Everything is starting to fall into place and I am truly happy with many things, my life just keeps getting better and better.

Every time a birthday approaches I can't help but think of what I have accomplished and boy did I do a good job this past year. These are some of the milestones! Survived a super-hard breakup... breaking up an engagement was one of the most difficult decisions I've ever made but also one of the wisest. With that break up came a move where I had to start from scratch in a new state, make new friends, find a new place and a new job... but everything has been accomplished.

I finally have a job that I love in a great company, in an area that I never thought I would be working in just because my background is so not related. I yet managed to land the job and excel at it in such a way that what started as a consulting gig ended up in a full time job. 

New friends... tons of them! Awesome people that have made me feel at home and that have been there for me in these rough last months. Reconnected with old ones, specially Mariana who I can't thank enough for being there... I guess the bonds we create in our childhood never go away, and this is a true example.

Health wise I can't be happier... I have managed to maintain healthy choices when it comes to my diet as well as Sophia's. I completed my first triathlon, I am in excellent shape, almost back to the size I was before my last relationship and I can't feel better about it. Been working on my abs and I am telling you all "THIS YEAR I AM GETTING MY SIX PACK" I am almost there and I can see it coming out, been doing Ab Ripper X and boy does it work! Once I get leaner I will post pics!

I just can't even begin to explain how blessed I feel... I still miss my Chicago friends and the city I love but I am so grateful for all the things I have and all the wonderful things I have accomplished in this 2011 year. I feel happy, loved by my friends and family and most importantly in peace. I just know that this year is going to be a great one!

Thank you God for all my blessings!

XOXO
