It was a rough morning with before school meltdowns, that left me wishing I’d ignored the alarm and continued sleeping. Having said that, I want to make the best of what time I have in the day.

Rather than giving into my desire to go straight home after dropping the boys off at school, climb back into bed and sleep away the stress, I chose a different path.

I dropped Lizze off at her appointment, and went walking with my Mom. No part of me wanted to go walking, but if I don’t push myself and continue working towards weight-loss, I have no one to blame but myself.

We ended up walking almost four miles before I had to pick Lizze up after her appointment.

I feel pretty awesome. I also feel really tired, but still awesome.
