Blog Entry
Woke up this morning and OMG! My chest and right shoulder is very sore from my workout on Sunday. I seriously think I overdone it! Funny, because I just read Fern’s (MsFitness) blog and she talk about Dom’s. Holy Moly! That’s what I have. It didn’t hurt yesterday. Gotta love Fern! She says it like it is and an idol for so many including myself.
I can honestly say that I use to be one of the people she spoke of in her blog. You know, the one that eats Healthy Choice meals and exercises every once in a while. I too, was addicted to certain TV shows like Days of our Lives. Now, I don’t even watch it. However, I don’t think I could give up Desperate Housives. Most of my workouts are done before 2pm. Most of the time, my TV is on Disney, Nickelodeon, Noggin, Sprout, or Boomerang.
For those who have been asking or wondering how I workout at home for 1 hour a day here it is. My 5 year old can entertain himself but the 2 year old is another story. You can’t turn your back on him for a minute! Into EVERYTHING!!! I like to workout before noon (which is before his naps) so I put him in his booster chair where he’s strapped in. May sound cruel to you but a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do. I then turn on Blue’s Clue’s (which I DV-R every episode) and voila! PEACE! Until he starts screaming MAMA! right in the middle of a set. Drives me nuts but that’s the way it goes. So you have to find creative ways to take care of yourself. It’s still a chore to take a shower everyday but that’s what I use nap time for.
Yesterday my 5 year old started football practice at 6pm. So here I am trying to entertain a 2 y.o. for 2 1/2 hours by myself. I never dreamed they would practice that long. One of the other mommies told me they would practice till dark Mon-Fri until school starts. Geez, this will be interesting and challenging. But it was so cute seeing 5 and 6 y.o. doing drills. Can’t wait to see the 1st game! Ok, gotta go, both of my kids have bubble gum and I have no clue how they got it. Great, now they’ll be plugged up! TTYL
