Monday…Gone With a Flash

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

This morning started off slow.  I was behind schedule getting to the gym this morning because I had to take care of some room mom duties.  Worked fast and then off to the gym. Got a great workout in and saw a few old friends who are finally coming back to the gym.  Today was “shoulder” day.  Did 5 shoulder exercises, some abs and 50 mins of cardio.  Whew! Then off to some errands.  Had to go turn in paperwork and money for booth at family health fair in a few weeks, get some snacks at the dollar tree, then to get cookies for my daughter’s teacher’s birthday celebration at school, to the school for the celebration and finally home for lunch!
And that brings me to my food journal (which I hope to get to everyday).

But the best part of the day wasn’t anything I’ve written about yet. This evening I got to feel like a kid again.  Of course, the reserved kid I have become at least.  At my son’s soccer practice it was them vs. the parents. OMG!!! It made me want to play soccer again.  See, before I became that fat girl in the pictures, I was an active young person.  I played soccer, and very well if I may say so myself, and I danced, and as a young adult my hubby and I played co-ed roller hockey.  I used to love to move and play sports.  I used to love to watch sports (ok…so it’s ok if that never comes back…I like my stupid tv shows).  So, today showed me that I wasn’t too old to have fun.  And a LOT OF IT!


The kids had so much fun!  The adults had so much fun!  The kids won (well, after we didn’t count about 5 goals, but hey it was all for fun, right).   I would like to point out however, that those dads from my previous post about soccer didn’t participate.  Again…not sure what could possibly be going on in their minds, but it would have been great for their kids.  The wives came through though…as if that would ever be a question…Let’s hear it for the moms…MOMS ROCK!!  Mom’s ALWAYS come through!
