I think I have almost gotten my lifestyle back to normal. I know this because my 5km time is back to "pre-relocation" timing. And because instead of carrying around my paperwork, i am carrying a large gym bag.
I am gymming 3 times a week and today gotten back into swimming. Gladly I feel more relaxed doing freestyle, probably because I know what real panic and anxiety is with my tyre burning ways, so that I no longer gasp for air while swimming.
the route to chatswood (nearest fitness first platinum, very big but sadly still not as shiny as our singapore ones, no towels!) from my workplace is not far but its one of the most challenging routes I've been on. narrow up and downhill and at parts so dark you cannot see the lines. Its that or a toll route. I think i'd rather pay toll once I get the etag if its safer. And it was raining and my windows fogged up. can cry.
I'm looking forward to get my keys, not quite because I am looking forward to moving in, but because I want to sign up for the Sydney half marathon with a proper address. I can hardly keep track of the addresses I need to change when I move.
I have 54 days to figure out how to get to the start point at 6 am. yes its just the half because if I attempt full they will make me turn back because I will not make the 5hr 30 min cut off.
I'm probably signing up because I think its the only way I can focus and preoccupy myself and pretend I have really settled in. people keep telling me if you like the outdoors you like sydney. what outdoors? its too b****y cold!
I'll be taking 1-1 swim lessons to perfect my freestyle. I'm sure there are some shark free zones.
