Day 2

Day 2:

Wow. It is amazing how fast the adversary works on you when you become deteremined to change for the better.  I didn't sleep well last night.  We have had a little man with strep throat around here. Then in the middle of the night our second child came in because he was scared. But then he said, "Why am I naked?"
That freaked me out. I went to see what was going on. Apparently he had got up to go to the bathroom, but didn't quite make it. I found his soiled clothes on the floor. He must have just stripped and then got back into bed.  It was very amusing, (but cleaning the floor wasn't very.)

Yesterday, we scored an older elliptical for $75 so I hope to start using tomorrow after we bring it in tonight from the garage.  I always enjoyed using the machines at the gym. It will be so much more convenient to wake up early and go downstairs.

I must be getting sick as well though because I have absolutely no energy today. I got up and got the kids' breakfast ready, ate some Rice Krispies with a banana, made my kids' school lunch and then promptly laid down on the couch until it was time to drive them to school.

I felt pretty horrible today, but was still able to drag myself into the shower and have enough energy to clean up dishes and fold some laundry, but that was it.  My head throbs as I just sit here right now. I did make me a "Reese" peanut butter protein shake with chocolate protein, spinach, bananas, ice, 1 scoop of peanut butter for lunch and along with piece of gouda cheese and one slice of wheat bread.  I read stories with my little guy until we both go sleepy and then we fell asleep.  Then I did not resist the urge to steal Halloween candy. Oh well! I will do much better tomorrow. Here is to feeling better and to keeping my thoughts positive today when my body is very exhausted.
