August 16, 2011- - 330 days to go!

Today was a super busy day.  I was able to go to my Grandma's house, my mom's house, and try and clean my home.  My alarm went off at 6:10AM and I couldn't drag my butt out of bed.  I meant to wake up and workout before Cris left for work but that didn't happen.  And that is how my life goes.  One excuse after the other for not working out, but at least I was able to stay strong and eat pretty healthy today, even when I wasn't in the house to prepare all my meals.  I lived my life and all went well.  As the night went on I had hopes to workout and guess what, I did!  I didn't want to, I wanted to sit at my computer and enjoy the quietness of my children asleep (and even my husband asleep).  I wanted to enjoy the solitude that a mother RARELY gets.  Cayten hadn't gone to bed just yet and wanted to play and have some time with mom.  I told myself no matter WHAT I was going to workout at 9PM. I dragged my feet, I kicked and screamed like a little baby (mabye not entirely), but I had a 5 year old little champ that said "I will exercise with you mom"! And that he did.

I turned on Jillian Micheals and I fought it for the first 5 minutes and then I began to enjoy it.  I enjoyed the burn, the feeling of being out of breath, knowing that I didn't give up, I didn't let an excuse rule my day and so it was a very successful day!
