Checklist

I thought I was going to have this evening off, and I had a scintillating night of cleaning the house planned, but I was just asked to come into the store tonight.  Two new people have been hired, so this should be the last time I am worked to death called in.  I reluctantly agreed to come in if they absolutely can’t find anyone else.  I am already working tomorrow night, and I worked last night, so there goes my week.

That means no workout today, because I expected to be able to work out this evening.  Frustrated doesn’t even begin to cover how I am feeling.  I am frazzled and just feel like there is no way to lose weight when my life is like this.  I can’t plan for anything, I don’t have a routine, and I am too tired to have even a lick of motivation.

I am going to steal an idea from a fellow blogger and make a daily to-do list for myself, a simple, basic checklist.  Nothing flashy, nothing too challenging, just reminders of what I should be focusing on each day.  I want to set a daily list and a weekly list, so things like “stay under calories on MyFitnessPal” on my daily list and “4 workouts” on my weekly list.  I will start very small, get into the habit of focusing on these things, then change them as (hopefully) my schedule frees up and I feel more human.

The way I feel right now, the #1 item on my daily checklist will be “Don’t kill anyone”.  🙂 Let’s just see about making it through that one before adding too much else!
