One Day at a time...

So yesterday I had a great day. I got up early when all the kids were awake at 6:45 am and we ate breakfast and everyone was dressed and I made lunch for the kids to take to school, and they were ready 20 minutes before the bus came. Then after they got on the bus I got shoes on Alyssa and Angela and we went to the Y. I exercised for 55 minutes on the elliptical and was feeling good. Then I stopped at the store on the way home and took care of some returns/exchanges I needed to. We came home and had lunch and I played with the kids... it was just overall a good day.

This morning didn't start out as well. I didn't sleep well last night, when Angela woke up at 2:30 am I was a zombie and just brought her into our bed and when she woke me up at 7:30 am I could not just wake up. My head was stuffed up and I was sore all over. The kids were sluggish waking up and getting ready for school and we had some mishaps and while I had done some laundry, apparently I washed the wrong stuff because the clothes that were needed weren't clean so that caused more frustrations. I'm so sore from my workout yesterday that I decided I probably overdid it since it had been a few weeks since I had gone to the Y, so I'm skipping the Y today and I'll get everything ready tonight to go again tomorrow. I've just spent the morning feeling down and just not motivated to do anything.

But I can change my day around... I logged in here and saw the comments on my last entry and it gave me some motivation to turn the day around and make it better... So I'm going to get working on getting the laundry caught up, and clean up the pile of toys that just got piled in the corner when we cleaned the carpets Monday... it's a start and we'll see if that spills over into motivation to do something else... :)

Hi Julie
Good job getting that workout in - that's the hardest step for me, the first workout. You did it. You're awesome!
