It seems like Mondays role around way too quick. Add to it all the festivities of this past weekend, and I have a joy hangover. Not that being very happy is a bad thing, but I took it to the extreme-and I deserved it!
But alas, its Monday, and I need to get back to work and reality. Its going to be a busy week for me, and I am excited for it.
Today, I have softball, and like I said its Monday. I need to get on the treadmill shortly. I have not worked out for almost 2 weeks, between being sick and just being lazy. But I feel its time. I need to hit the treadmill and bowflex, and get back on track. Its not that I don't enjoy working out, I keep saying it but there is a road block mentally. I think its all related to how I perceive myself. And what my motivation truly is.
At this point in my in life, I am not looking at losing weight. That's a seperate set of issues. However, I am looking at being my best. I can't do that if I am not fueling myself with junk. So today I am promising myself that I am going to eat healthy. Today I plan on having a greek omelete for breakfast (egg beaters, spinach, feta cheese, capers & artichoke hearts) with toast and fruit. For my morning snack, grapes and cheese. Lunch is a frozen dinner with extra vegetables and yogurt. PM snack will be carrot sticks and hummus. And dinner will be 3 bean enchiladas and ciltrano lime rice with tres leches cake.
The little man asked me yesterday on the way home from church why we don't have dessert at dinner. So...it got me thinking, and here it is little dude-mommy heard you. He's been a little onery the last few days, and that is usually a sign of a growth spurt. He just got new clothes because we've outgrown our others. Like a weed we are right now.
But believe me, I am not complaining about it. I feel very blessed that my little guy is growing and maturing.
Time to get my morning groove on. Make the bed. Wash up and chug more coffee. Throw some laundry in the washer. Treadmill. Bowflex. Shower and dress. Tidy up the house, make dinner (this way the big man just has to throw in the oven). Get the day on. Get through the day. Come home and get things on with my family. Tonight its family devotional night-so the little man & I are going to make a Pentecost craft and have a story. Tidy up the foyer and living room. Chill with my boys.
Life is good.
Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity. Margaret D. Nadauld
