It's been two weeks since I finished my 365/365 movement challenge and honestly I've felt a little ... gloomy? Emotionally hungover? Adrift? All of the above, which I wasn't expecting. I'm still going (379 days, as of writing this), but I've just been feeling a little blah about the whole thing. Does that ever happen to you? Funny how you can be a whole grown up and still not be able to anticipate these things about yourself. While I'm trying not to self soothe in undermining ways—a lifelong challenge, for sure—I also wanted to mark this moment in some way, so I bought myself the @hermes watch band I've been admiring the last two years, and you know what? I think it's helping. I've been thinking about my relationship with rewards and treats, and motivation, in general, over the last couple of years, and while buying stuff doesn't always make me happy, there are moments when it feels right, and this was one of them. Anyway, just wanted to say thank you, yet again, to @apple for making a piece of technology that truly changed my life. I never though the gamification of exercise would incentivize me, but wow I was very, very wrong, and am quite glad about it. And, as always, thank you again to everyone who supported me in this project. Your messages and encouragement means everything to me, truly. (And, not that you asked, but the friendship bracelet is one I made in middle school and recently discovered in an old jewelry box my mom found!)
