Murphy’s Law
This morning I was woken by both of my sons as they crawled into bed with me after my husband left for work. It was around 5 a.m.
I had planned to work out early and knew that if I got up, they’d come along with me. Ordinarily, I’d give up my plans to avoid any kind of chaos or difficulty that comes with them interfering with my workout, but I decided to get up anyway and follow through with my plan.
They of course got up with me, but decided to watch TV in my room…so Yay for me!!
I had about 10 minutes left to my cardio session when my 4 yr old was screaming down to me that my oldest wouldn’t let him watch his shows.
I turned up my iPod, yelled to him that I’d be up in 10 minutes and kept chugging along. He kept carrying on and I was getting annoyed, but I knew if I stopped to deal with the fight, I’d be giving up my committment yet again and didn’t want to get into a stop/start situation with my goals. No progress can ever be made with that kind of schedule. So I finished out my session and by that time, he had stopped crying. I of course had an uphill battle dealing with the TV fight afterward, but at least I finished the goal I set for myself.
On to tomorrow……
