Since I do not have a gym membership I have to come up with my own things to do for exercise. Sometimes that is exhausting with two kids! Last week I did nothing ... but I have "that time of month" to blame ;) This week I began by planning out what I was going to do ... pilates on Mon, Wed & Fri and running 2 miles on Tues/Thurs. It's raining today, only a light drizzle, but I'm not running. If we lived in Portland or somewhere where it rained A LOT I would go ... but we live in sunny Southern California ... I'm not running. I also don't feel bad ... my plan is my plan - but it's not a law ... and if you really knew me you would know that I create laws all the time for myself and then beat myself up for not keeping them. For instance, I MUST get up @ 5:30 every day to read the Word, prepare for the day (or exercise) and be showered and ready for the kids to be up by 7:30. I did that for awhile ... and that was good. But I'm learning that was a season and the Lord was using it in my life to teach me some valuable things about discipline - but I'm not in that season right now and that is okay!
That being said - I'll still run twice this week ... I'll just do it on Saturday and report back then on how the rest of the week goes!

Hey, high five for doing something, even if it isn't every day or week. Two toddlers is quite an excercise in itself! Wish we lived closer so I could be your running partner after baby is born:)
I think that's a very valuable lesson...the law thing...I can totally relate...
I wish we lived closer too Danna! There are a few ladies in my life that I wish I could actually SHARE day to day life with. You and Amber (possibly my only blog readers - or at least "commentators") are two of them!
