Last week the kids went back to school…I wanted to do a little jig and bask in my free time, but
Instead, we started our week off with a personal tragedy and a grey cloud followed us around all week long
We’re still healing and sorting through feelings about that and I might have thrown myself a little pity party last week, but this week I’m screaming…
Do Over!
Even though my mouth has been over run with canker sores (stress, hormones, diet??? UGH!), and all I want to do is eat my feelings (even though it hurts to eat!), I’m gonna stop eating junk and get my booty back to the gym! My shoulder had been giving me a hard time and last week my neck decided to join the party, so in addition to not running/weight lifting, I haven’t even been to yoga. 🙁 No wonder I’ve been such a cranky pants!
I’m determined that this week WILL be better though. A crappy week is not an option dangit!
Guidelines for a non-crappy week
Be prepared – start thinking about lunch items and what’s for dinner way in advance so I’m not rushing around at the last minute
Get up early – I’m such a nicer mommy in the morning when I’m awake before the kids. Even if it’s only 10 min.
Plan workouts – preparing for workouts makes it more likely that I’ll get them done
Eat breakfast – hangry is not a good look for me
Do a load of laundry a day – stay ahead of the monster so it doesn’t feel like it’s about to swallow me!
Ditto the above except substitute dishes for laundry
and finally…
Think positive, happy thoughts! – negativity breeds negativity
P.S. I really need to go to the grocery. I just ate chicken salad for breakfast. 😛
Happy Monday! I hope everyone has a great week!
Btw, I have no idea what product this video is for. I just thought it was cute. 🙂
