No workout for me yesterday, since I was far too exhausted (okay, lazy) to get up early for a morning workout, and I barely had an hour after I got home from work to spend with the kids before it was time to load up and reluctantly head back to their egg-donor. I decided to hang out with them instead of rushing off to the gym.
When we dropped the kids off, I couldn’t help but notice that their other home looks more and more like a junk yard. I love pulling into our driveway and seeing flowers, potted plants, bird feeders, all the things that make it our home and make it so damn cute. I couldn’t stand trash scattered from end of the yard to the other, crap randomly tossed wherever it lands, and sure as hell not redneck, gutted vehicles rusting out on the grass. I would say “to each their own” and shrug it off, except it makes me wonder how clean the inside of the house can possibly be.
No excuses this evening: no matter what, I am working out after work today. I’ll check in tomorrow to let you know what I did.
One of my friends mentioned a fitness journal that she has, and I am looking at good, old-fashioned, paper journals today. I love the food diary on MyFitnessPal, but I really need a change of pace. I like the idea of being able to scribble down some thoughts, ideas, rants, frustrations, or celebrations, depending how the day went, while I summarize the day. It feels old-school to go back to a paper food diary, but there is just something about putting pen to paper that feels more real, intimate, and hey, no wi-fi required!
