Happy New Year!

I feel as though yesterday was the longest New Year's Eve in the history of my existence. I went to the gym about an hour and a half before it closed (they closed early). I ran 4.7 miles and lifted chest. Except the gym was SO crowded, I had to lay on the floor for half of my lifts. Everyone was getting a head start on their resolutions I guess. Then boyfriend and I spent the evening doing really fun things.

Finally, after what felt like 48 years, we met my besties at the movies where we saw The Wolf of Wall Street. I did not realize it would be three hours long. We got out of there at 11:15, so I guess that shaved some time off of the night. We headed to my dad and step mom's friend's house where we danced. And I held my love.

We missed the countdown. We looked at our phones and at 11:58. Then again at 12:01. So we did the countdown anyway. Then the boys lit sparklers.

I was in bed by 12:30. Way past my bed time. This afternoon, I avoided the gym and went to my dad's. I got really into my workout.

I stopped at 4.5 miles and did ab circuits and then mile sprints.

Needless to say, I was starving for lunch.

My mom, brother, and I took the dogs to the beach for a sun set walk. It was freezing, but the fresh air was just what I needed.

Now I am headed to my sister's house for game night. It's been a lovely start to 2014. 

How has your first day of the year been??
