Day 2

Well....today has been an ok day!!! Busy day I would have to say...I think I got everything done on my list that I wanted to get done but if not tomorrow is another day. :) Tomorrow is MOPS and I really look forward to my MOPS days!!! It makes my week complete and I really enjoy spending my morning w/ other women and fellowshiping!! :) I do have to wake up early and actually have to get out of bed and get going but it's worth it!!! Tomorrow though, I will have to control what I eat and only pick out a few items and I know it's going to be really hard for me too do as all the bfast casserole's and cookies, brownies, donuts, and cinnamon rolls and so many other items that aren't good for me will be staring me in the face but I will discipline myself and say no. :) I'll let you know how it goes. :)

Today I didn't do any laundry which was hard for me not to do but I told myself no, I do laundry everyday pretty much but now I have to save on my detergent as doing it everyday it doesn't last me my full two weeks. I love having the machines going. I don't know why but it motivates me (I love the sound too) and so does the dishwasher. I did have that going so it helped. :) I cleaned my shower today and I hate doing that..probably b/c it's soo big and when I get done cleaning it, it still looks like I didn't clean it. There's an old tub for you. :) So it doesn't motivate me at all to clean it as I don't see a positive result but knowing it's clean I guess will just have to do. Boys went outside again today and it was cold this morning so I had to get all their gear on and of course as I get caleb's hat on he pulls it off and refuses to get his coat on and kicks while getting his shoes on but Isaac really wanted caleb to go outside w/ him so during his ranting and crying I finally got everything on him and he did go outside willingly and they played in the sandbox mostly and it was so cute to see them outside playing together w/ their hats and coats on and they played very well together. While they were outside I was able to vacuum the livingroom, bedroom, playroom and all around my edges and corners of the walls on my downstairs, sweep my floors, make my bed and clean up my room and clean my shower and get ready to get on my treadmill. I got on my treadmill and of course my boys want to be right there w/ me beside the treadmill or right in front of the tv and I will tell you my workouts don't go as well as I would like them too.. I want to be focused on my workouts but mostly i'm focusing on my boys as they will turn the tv off or be jumping on the bed or caleb likes to walk a long the wall of the treadmill and I have to tell him to get out or Isaac is tackling caleb and caleb starts crying so now i'm having to stop or just talk to him while i'm running and so my focus is on them and not my workout and i hate it and it's hard but I get it done and still feel great afterwards but I just don't understand why they have to be right there w/ me instead of going and playing in another room. :) It's probably why I dread working out. :)

Today I did my 30 minutes and for me I think I worked hard.. I burned 335 calories and went 2.42 miles but I walked 10 minutes then ran a 10 min mile and then walked the last 10 all on an incline of 3 and I was tired at the end but it felt great!!! I know it's only day 2 of my journey but I'm already feeling good but to be honest I really haven't had any temptations yet. Tomorrow will be my first at MOPS and then I know I'll have to deal w/ it when the weekend comes...I know I can do it...After the treadmill i had to run to the store as we were out of toilet paper and I hate having to stop what i'm doing in my daily routine and go to get one thing but it's something we have to have so did that, came back around 12pm and took a walk w/ the boys and then fed them lunch and made dinner, put caleb down for a nap, showered and picked up all the toys and got ready for work and finally was time for naptime for Isaac and I and it was nice.. :) Well,I hope all is well. Until next time!! :)
