The Fight Never Ends

Today started off great.  I got up, got my kids and I out the door, and when I arrived at work I received several comments about how I looked like I had lost weight over the last week.  That of course made me feel great and motivated to keep on doing what I have been doing.  I kept up my diet today while I was at work, and had a pretty busy day with all of the kids at work, which of course kept my mind completely occupied. 

Then it happened, I received the nastiest email from my ex-husband, who was kind enough to try to put a rift in my day.  I swear to you all, the fight will never end with the man, but I didn't feed into the negativity.  I talked to a few wonderful friends of mine at work, Jen, and then I spoke to my fantastic friend,Michelle, and they helped to keep me grounded.  Nothing better than a few good friends.  I kept myself focused on the evening ahead, and kept moving forward.

Caleb, my youngest, and I, decided to go hang out with a few of our friends at the gym.  Caleb did Zumba for kids from ages 5-12 with his best friend, Allie, and myself and Allie's Mom, Annette, hit the adult Zumba class.  Talk about a workout!  Sheesh!  The place was packed!  We did the soul train line, and had a blast.  We felt really good after.  It's amazing what a little exercise can do for your mood. 

Tonight, I am hoping to get some sleep.  For some reason last night, I was unable to sleep.  I tossed and turned all night, but amazingly I had enough energy to get me through the entire day and night.  So here I am....it is almost 11pm, and I am ready to get some sleep.  My goal is to wake up early in the morning and walk to the dog around the neighborhood.  It's a mile one lap around, so I think that would be a great start to the day, and then I plan on ending the day with Cardio Combat.  I think the key for me is to keep on moving, which is what I am trying to do! 

Good Night Friends!!!!
