Too much, yes... but it won't stop me

I know, I'm going backwards in the number of posts I'm making but there is just too much going on. It is so difficult taking care of everything by myself. I do not know how single parents manage, I guess when you have no choice you make it work.
Adam is already living in Ohio during the week and only comes home on the weekends. This is not an easy situation. Lily still has school and activities so I am alone to take care of that. There are girl scout cookies to be sold, donations for a silent auction to be sought out, spaghetti dinner tickets to be sold, boxes to be found, packing to be done not to mention the stuff I want to do. My workouts, my personal development time, meeting up with friends, playing with Lily... these are the things I'd love to spend my whole day doing. So you can see how it's a little difficult right now for me. That's ok though, I have a greater appreciation for the things and the people I love because of this. I am learning better how not to take things and people for granted. It really is amazing how much I continue to learn and re-learn as circumstances change.


With everything that is happening, I'm going to take it back to my basics. My fitness and nutrition is more and more becoming the core of who I am. I'm not in a place to take on new workouts and new meal plans right now with everything going on, I am in a place to start another round of something familiar and that I love!!! I am getting ready for a preseason with my group of 21 day fixers tomorrow. Some new ladies joining and some of them starting their round 2. I will be starting my 3rd round of the original fix and I am more excited for this round than I was the first 2.  I can't wait to get everything dialed back in and be able to focus when I know what I'm doing (gotta love that part, right?!?!)

I love the freshness that each new day brings, but there really is something about a Monday that says new beginning. I feel ready, I feel excited, I feel determined. This will be my best personal round yet. I have lofty goals and my sights are set and locked. I have my meal plan, shopping in the morning and alarm set nice and early for those workouts. There is something to be said about getting a workout done in the morning and feeling energized for your day. With that said, it's late. Can't start off day 1 with the snooze button.

Do I have too much going on, yes absolutely. Will it stop me from being my best, no. All I need is to make the decision to get what I want done.. ah ha
