First off, it's 5:55 on a Saturday morning and I have now been up for almost an hour. I cannot sleep. I got news this morning that a dear friend of mine was in a car accident and I'm sitting here wondering what her world must look like right now. Yesterday I was whining and griping about how my life isn't fair sometimes, and yet I have 3 beautiful children, am engaged to an awesome guy, and have more blessings than I deserve. I have a roof over my head, clothes on my body, and parents who have basically taken me and the kids under their wings the last 3 years. What a big baby I was acting like!! Why do we do that? It's sad how something so horrible has to snap us back into our reality and remind us of our blessings. I am ever so sorry for thinking and feeling the things I did yesterday. All I can do is sit here and pray for the family of my friends. I won't go into the deets. Just know. They aren't good.
As for being accountable to my workout plan. I have stuck with it!! I'm actually really proud of myself for that. I'm on Day 9 now and it's a REST day. I like the sound of that! Even yesterday, when I was Pouty McPoutface, I forced myself through the workout and it did help bring me out of the funk...at least a little bit. I am feeling much more energetic everyday and I feel like maybe can feel my strength building. That feels great! Turbo Fire is definitely an intense workout and makes me sweat more than anything I've ever done before, but it is never boring and keeps me on track...so I love it! Highly recommend. But it's not for the faint of heart. I would recommend doing Turbo Jam first if you're just getting back into shape.
Lastly - If you're a parent. - WHY do kids get SO crazy in the summer?!?! I'm about to pull my hair out over here. If only I had their energy. Let's just put it that way. It's been so hot that we have kind of been stuck indoors. My request is for more free indoor activities so parents can not totally lose their minds. Is that asking too much? No. In all seriousnness, I'm just thankful that my children are most obviously happy and healthy. They have tons of energy and actually you can tell that they know they are loved. They're amazing kids. Even if they are slightly hyper sometimes. :)
