My photo
Every morning I wake up with a head full of things to do. I scramble around trying to put them in lists of importance all while trying to keep the peace within my little brood (trying to recall everything I've learned and read about parenting at the same time.) I love being a wife and the quirks that come with having my man forever. I love to be creative and thrive on crossing off my to do list. I strive to find balance and put first things first which brings me PEACE & JOY and allows me to sleep so much easier when I do. I think that one of the secrets to being HAPPY in life is to find that balance. I'm learning how to be kinder to myself and learning patience in progress. Everyday, through the thick and thin of life I'm trying to turn my heart towards heaven and remember what's really important.Oh, and I love to eat, so much so that I love to exercise too.

I worked out today, but...



Before I even start the warm up I'm dreading the pain.
Especially when I've gone weeks without a solid workout program.
I tell myself, "I'm going to workout today."
And then, I quit on myself.
I skip a workout.
Day after day.
I don't follow through with promises to myself.
Makes me kind of feel bad about me.

My clothes don't fit like they did.
I feel sluggish.
When I carry a sleeping girl up the stairs I think I might stop breathing.

And then.
An invitation.
Do I want to go to Hawaii?
Why yes!!!



Now, when I get the burn.
When the pain is there.
I think of myself on the beach,
with my fit self.
Not beating up on me.
Just enjoying it all- in a swimsuit.




Me? In Hawaii!
Soaking up the sun on the North Shore.
September 15-22
I can't believe it!!
