Thankfully Busy

Since starting at the new job, I have become more of a focused man. OK, not really.. I am still a ball of mess when it comes to anything... but I have had more time to myself since I am working one quality job, rather than 2 that were driving me crazy. Not only am I able to make the same income or more than having two jobs that I was working 6 days at.. but I am in a situation that is just more quality all around. One place of employment, great environment and good money. It's a great thing. Since Summer in Las Vegas is one of the slower seasons as far as dining out and higher end dining.. this is the time that is usually spent cutting back, and really focusing on being a bit more frugal with savings and income. However, I can say that it has been a bit more busy than usual.. thanks to many different factors. One of them is that people are really becoming comfortable with spending money again and the economy is making an upturn. 


As for me personally.. I have been trying to "re-wire" myself and get back to what it all was that I found important about being me at one time. I had mentioned previously that I was entering a Renaissance of sorts when I hit my 30's .. and I have continued on that path. I was a bit sidetracked for awhile.. and now I am endeavoring to get back to it. I've told you about my work-out schedule..and that has been great. I moved from doing alot of working out in my apartment to joining a great gym nearby. I have made some serious progress and I am currently in better physical shape than I have ever been in. Recently I switched to going to the gym late at night.. like after work. Between the hours of 11pm and 3 am. Sounds crazy.. but it has been great for me. I am sticking to the Monday through Friday routine.. 2 muscle groups a day, but I have added in more Cardio everyday and of course more eating. I was getting some great muscle gains but still holding onto fat because I wasn't eating enough calories throughout the day. I'm back up to about 6 meals a day. It's great. 

I am making the effort to clean out the clutter in many areas of my life. Emotionally, physically, and materialistically. Emotionally is a constant work in progress.. as is physically. Materialistically, I am cleaning out the clutter built up over years. I even took my 8 foot by 11 foot sectional couch to a friends house to put in his game room loft. I just wanted more from my little living space. To be honest, I live in my bedroom and a large studio apartment would suit me much better. For now I will make a large living space out of what I have. 

It's all a work in progress... my lease on my place is up soon and I am trying to decide what the next move is. I do believe there needs to be a move of some sort though. I'll keep you posted.
