42 Days: Morning

Today’s Weight: 159.4 lbs.  I’m not going to cheer until I’m at 158, which I thoroughly plan to attain by tomorrow.

Today’s Plan: Work like the busy little bee I am.  There’s so much to get done for my day job right now; PR call at 1, call with our web designer at 2, and between now and then I’d like to get our client database up and running properly, or at least pinned together.  There’s so much data that needs to be cleaned.  Plus, I’m not finished with adding photos to our Flickr site, so there’s also that to think about.

Most important (and exciting) part of my day as I see it, though? ZUMBA! Yup, heading back to Zumba class this afternoon to dance some more of my butt off 🙂 Have you ever gone to a Zumba class? If not, and you’re curious, here’s a little video to show some of the moves.  Granted, these people are good, and I stumble around and look like an idiot, but it’s just as fun and dynamic as they’re making it look, no matter my (lack of) skill level!

Alright, time to get crackin’.  I’ll catch up with you all later in the day.

Hello,

I’m Nova

I have no “personal brand.” I’m not a girl boss, I’m not an influencer, and I don’t aspire to be powerful, inspiring, or rich. I probably can’t teach you anything, and there’s a good chance that there’s nothing at all of interest or use to you here. This is just where I come to talk about the random bits and pieces that make up my quiet life as a sober woman in her 40s. I’m engaged to the love of my life, have six (yes, SIX) indoor pets, and spend a lot of time gardening and hunting for thrift treasures. I also study classical voice (I’m a lyric coloratura soprano) and am deeply interested in all things spiritual and paranormal. Right now I’m trying to recover from career burnout and even out my personal energy, but my eventual goal is to become a medium and shamanic healer, using music to remind humans of the things that actually matter: connection, community, and loving all living things as though they were our own children. I may or may not talk about all of these things here (and sometimes all at once). Welcome!
