Busy, busy, busy. That’s the best way to describe things these days. Getting in the workouts takes creativity, scheduling, and flexibility. Eating right takes discipline and preparation. That’s what life is about, though, learning how to do all that you can to make those most out of what time you have. I just can’t believe how lucky I am to be doing what I love, supported by the man that I love, and fortunate enough to squeeze in “almost” everything I want in life right now. Wow!
Yesterday’s workout was shoulders. I had to clean house and wash linens before the in-laws arrived for an overnight visit, cook a pot full of my Protein Blast to eat the next few days, take Logan to McDonald’s Playland (as promised), carefull construct FIVE monthly training schedule for new clients and renewing clients, attend a Neighborhood Watch Meeting because I am on the committe, and host our montly poker tournament. That left little time to exercise and talk about a food temptation…sitting in Mickey D’s for two hours. Here is how I did it and I hope it helps you:
6:30 a.m. - wake up, make coffee, check email messages
7:30 a.m. - Logan up, make our breakfast, turn to Disney and grab dumbells
8:00 a.m. - after eating…do shoulder workout in living room to Mickey’s House of Mouse or Handy Manny. I can’t remember which one was on, but Logan watched, I worked out, and we talked about the show.
9:00 a.m. - linens are washing by now, kitchen is being cleaned and hubby is waking up
10:00 a.m. - clean rest of house and put Protein Blast in crockpot to cook. Prep my food bag for Mickey D’s.
11:00 a.m. - head to Mickey D’s with laptop, food bag, hubby, and Logan
2:00 p.m. - head home after working some at MDs and meet in-laws.
3:00 p.m. - 30 minute staunch treadmill workout
3:30 p.m. - shower for the day and head to Neighborhood Watch Meeting
5:00 p.m. - dinner (I’ve been eating my snacks and such all day out of food bag)
6:00 p.m. - first poker players arriving
9:00 p.m. - leave poker game a big loser and return upstair grumbling to work for another three hours. Snacks galore and TOM starts settling in.
12:00 a.m. - night night
That’s the way I get it in. I slam workouts in when I can and get creative with location. Prepping food keeps me from eating a #2 with a strawberry shake. 
Yum. Hope that helps you see that if there is a will there is a way!!!
