“If we had no winter; the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.”
-Anne Bradstreet
How could anyone not feel grateful to be alive when it’s 75 degrees out and the sun is shining? Granted, we have had an unseasonably mild winter up here in the north east, but it hasn’t made me look forward to the beautiful spring weather any less! I mean, who doesn’t feel happy at the first signs of spring? I for one can’t wait to get outside more!
I spent this morning cleaning the house and catching up on chores…like finally trucking over to the grocery store to buy some healthy food (I was delighted to have my sunroof open on the drive!). I was also delighted at just how many heavy bags of groceries I am able to juggle now- thanks to all my kick ass workouts. Pretty soon I won’t even need that second trip to the car! I know, yet another awesome reason to hit the gym!
Speaking of which,I luckily managed to get my Insanity workout in early before I distracted with the typical daily chaos. I especially wanted to make sure I got it done today because neither of my planned workouts panned out yesterday. In truth, though, I think I really needed the rest. I have been dragging a bit and have been more sore than usual, which was part of my motivation to go get some healthy eats.
I decided to celebrate the gorgeous day by making some fresh guacamole for lunch…YUM! It’s always a plus when something tastes good AND is good for you. Of course the fact that I ate way too much was probably NOT good for me, but great eating habits has never been a strong suit of mine. What can I say; I’m a work in progress.
Tonight I’m looking forward to some more boot camp!!! I’ve been trying to convince Mike to let us have our session outside tonight- on account of the fabulous weather– but he has yet to cave. It might have to do with us acting like 5 years at our last outdoor session. We basically had a hard time paying attention because of all the excitement of “playing” outside. (There were a lot of punishment exercises involved…) It was still a great time though! (at least for us…maybe not so much for Mike) My favorite part was tire flipping, although the obstacle course Mike constructed was also fun. 😉
That is all for now! It’s way to nice out to spend any longer on the computer!
I hope everyone is enjoying the day!!!!!
