Fitting it in

If you’re like me, you have a lot going on in your life. It’s noon as I write this, I’m sitting here at my desk inhaling a bowl of cut up watermelon – my first food of the day.

Day 6

Up at 6am, because I could not realistically get up any earlier than that. I am a non-functioning human being before 6am!

I check e-mail, wake up with a cup or two of coffee, and get the kids ready and off to school. I had a 9am appointment that I had forgotten about, so I had exactly 30 minutes between returning from driving the kids to school and leaving for my 9am appointment. Thankfully, a friend texted me and asked if I had time to walk with her this morning EXACTLY at the only time I did have. Talk about divine intervention!

We speed walked for a little more than 30 minutes and I jumped in the car for my 9am. Thankfully my appointment was at the dentist and she wore a mask so she wasn’t too offended by my post-workout body perfume. ;)

An hour later, I returned home and flipped on my DVD player to do as instructed – stretching and Level 1 floor exercises from Joey’s Ultimate Leg, Butt, Hip & Thigh Makeover. For some reason, I don’t recall it hurting as much last week as it did today! I definitely felt it. I may feel it even more later – but for now, I have a few short hours to get some work done before the rest of the day’s activities kick in – picking up the kids, homework, dinner, volleyball practice and a game.

By the time I get home tonight, I will be zapped of all energy and knew that I had to fit my daily exercise in this morning, somehow! I’m glad it all “worked out”!

It’s 10:47 and I sat down with a second cup of coffee. This reminded me I haven’t had anything to eat yet.

boy you got a lot more done than I did. So far, still in my jammies (yes, it’s 1pm here!), 2 cups of coffee, did some costume organizing, found some costume pieces (yay!), and started my laundry. Unfortunately I also munched a bunch of Fire Hot Cheetos. boo!

I need to get dressed and head to the gym.
