Day 2

This morning I woke up to Little Man crawling into bed with me and waking me up, so at my first alarm the two of us woke up his sisters and the morning began.  I got the girls ready and out the door with daddy.  I started getting Little Man breakfast and started thinking I was too sore and tired to do anything today.  My next thought was how I am no longer fitting comfortable into clothing that was fine this spring.  We have had an absolutely insane summer and my coping mechanisms have been terrible. (Like one pint of ice cream in a sitting more than once a week, terrible.) Which have started to wane a bit, but I'm feeling the effects anyway.  So I put on comfortable clothes, turned on Issues ETC. on my iPod and set the timer for 15 minutes.  (I realize that it is only half of my time from yesterday, but I had to get to work, and something has to be better than nothing, right?!)  I "jogged" the first two laps around the yard and then walked for about 7 minutes, then jagged two laps and walked the rest.

I am super tired and achy today, but I hope I can keep up the momentum.

A New Habit, Day 1

Alright, I am trying something new.  I am going to start a new habit and try to track it here.  I should have posted this yesterday, but I didn't have time.

♪ For the first time in forever... ♪
 Ok , seriously, for the first time in a really long time I went to bed thinking I should wake up and work out. So this morning I woke up (1/2 hour after I planned too), and went outside to jog. I set my timer for 30 minutes, jogged for 2 minutes, switched to walking and walked the whole time, except one quick water break. I'm really excited that I did that, but also fairly certain I am now going to die. So loved ones, please check in on Leif and the family for me. :)
