I Crested the Summit of One Small Molehill

     I couldn't go to the gym in the morning because the kids had fevers on Sunday and I didn't want to chance it.  I also babysit the neighbor girl on Mondays, so I couldn't go in the early afternoon.  Plus we had SEPs that afternoon as well.  Not only was the workout postponed, but I was also getting more and more tired.  I didn't want to miss DWTS, either.  All of these circumstances combined did not equal a good chance for me to get to the gym.  I finished my novel and ate dinner:  It was now or never.
     What do you think I did?  I went to the gym and nearly biked a marathon. 23.38 miles.  I sailed easily over the first hurdle to my new routine and it was time well spent.  You never regret going to the gym once you've gone.  I have not missed a day since I joined.  Even though I am very discourage I am not loosing weight, I am not giving up.  I will be healthy.  I will be fit.
     Nursing has also been another obstacle.  So, I decided to stop.  JD will be a year in a couple of weeks and we still have sample formula that will get us through that time.  I am in pain.  He won't take a bottle.  I hope he is hungry enough soon that he will decide formula isn't the most disgusting thing on the planet.

  1. Wow- good job on your biking! I know it's hard to work out at night- I just want to go to bed. Way to jump those hurdles.

  2. I totally tell leon that all the time when I'm dragging myself to my workout class. I never regret it once it's over---no matter how hard it is to get there. So good on you! And eventually that weight will start dropping. Keep it up.
