I've Fallen Off The Wagon...

In more ways than one. First off my apologies to Julie for not having your Friday Feature posted. I'm having computer issues, as in, Hot Honey disconnected it before I thought through what I had left to do on it. I'm trying to sneak this in on Hot Honey's laptop before he goes to work. It only took me ten minutes to remember the web address and then I had to type in my passcode multiple times because I couldn't remember it. But finally success. I will hold on to the Friday Feature and post it next Friday. Sorry Julie.

Secondly, I did not get my workout in yesterday :(  We worked late moving all the furniture out of our bedroom and ripping out the carpet. I spent the day trying to put away stuff in our room and make room in the baby's bedroom for our king size bed to squeeze in their--and I do mean squeeze. We can't even shut the door!  It is harder than I thought to hold a baby and crawl across the bed to put him in and out of his crib. Only two nights, right?! I'm hoping.

Hot Honey suggested I count all the work as my workout. I thought about it on and off. I also thought about how I've worked longer than 30 mins several days. I could add all the extra minutes together and I have my time for the week. Although my head can easily justify these options, my heart can not. It knows the truth. 

The work clearing our bedroom was not time set apart for me. Yes, it was hard. I realize that many of the everyday activities--picking up a thousand little things off my floor each day, load after load of laundry, sweeping, mopping, carrying around my 15lb or 35lb weights (also known as child #3 & #4, but not in that order) The list goes on. These things are all important, but not what this club is about.

This club is about setting apart time in the day to put me first. Maybe that is going to far to say first. I will settle for just on the list. I know I'm not alone. It is natural to put everything and everyone, before ourselves. That is why I love this bloggy club! We are helping each other remember that taking care of our health is as important as everything else in life.

If I added together my extra minutes, that would grow into a monster. Pretty soon I'd squeeze in 2 1/2 hours one day, just to have the other days off! (some off you girls would too.)

Looks like I will be walking on Valentines Day! I guess I will look at it as a big present to myself. As time goes by I will appreciate it even more. 

Hope you all have a wonderful Friday. I will try to make it back here before Monday. We will see how smoothly putting in new floors goes. Not to mention we will have company. Hot Honey's brother, wife, three kids, and dog are coming for the weekend.
