Day 453...tiS tHe sEaSoN tO be LaZy...

Oh the holidays...it seems we spend all our time eating...buying...partying... We make time for all these seemingly important things...but the things that REALLY matter...namely our health...gets put on the back burner. I have never had a problem working out during the holidays. For the past 2 years...I've had a personal trainer and I didn't have to think about it. I had an appointment...a set time and I showed up. This year has been much more difficult. This week I've gone through some serious family drama and I've struggled to get ready for Christmas but still take care of myself. I'm ashamed to say that Christmas is winning! The funny part is that I'm not even in the Christmas spirit. I've been a Scrooge all season.

Today I thought my entire day was full. I THOUGHT I had an appointment at the school...a hair appointment...and a doctor's appointment. I showed up at the school and opened my notes to double check the room...time...etc...ONLY to find out that my meeting AND my hair appointment are on TUESDAY!!!! NOT TODAY! I called my husband to lament and his response was..."Hey....guess what?...There's this really cool thing called a calendar! You should get one!" Poo! No sympathy there. I'm left with open time..I have a million things to do, yet I feel lost. I only did 35 minutes on my elliptical at 6AM because I thought that I didn't have anymore time for anything else...now I sit here...feeling guilty...thinking "Should I just workout more and get ready all over again?" I guess I'll just "power walk" my way through more Christmas shopping. I know ONE THING...next week, I have to do better...
