The only place I’m at peace…
… is in the gym. Me, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and the iron. Why else would I get up at 4:45 to go torture myself. My wife hates going to the gym so she doesn’t understand. She sees it as a necessary evil, and I don’t think she’s found her place. I put up 225 on the incline 6 times the other day and came home with a big grin on my face. She didn’t get it. She tried so I guess I can’t complain.
We have a pretty hectic life. We’re both 8-5ers. We have an 18 month old and another one due in late February, and a MIL that is very demanding of her granddaughter’s time. The gym is my sanctuary, but I guess most of us here are like this. I just wanted to let y’all know that your blogs and feedback have been a big help in keeping me going and sticking to a routine I’ve tried to stick to sooooo many times.
