Killer Caterpillars

What a gift of a day today is. Ellison is off so I was able to go running at 8:00 this morning and it was amazing. I did four miles at a 10:30 pace and I didn’t struggle at all. I could’ve pushed myself harder but I was enjoying my conversation with my partner so much. I’m grateful for my running partner Jade. She and I have become good friends through meeting twice a week for our early morning runs. She’s going to run her first race this year and I’m so excited. Her hubby is also going to start running. Life is so amazing. I had some quiet prayer and mediation time this morning and it just felt so great. Today I’m going to get the Frida’s waxed and I can’t wait. I feel like a monster. I call them the killer caterpillars. Adjei loves it because he’ll try to touch my eyebrows and I pretend that they bite him. They’re pretty crazy. However, I’m grateful that I have plenty to shape.

My eating is a work in progress. I wish it was easy for me because I could be so fit if I just stopped snacking. I’m the worst snacker on the planet. It’s hard to be a stay at home mom because during your down time, the exhaustion sets in, and the boredom, so you just want to eat. My danger times are 3-5. It’s now a habit that I need to quit slowly. My other danger time is 8-10. My body conditioning classes use to help with the night eating because who wants to eat after you’ve just busted your ass. I can do this!! I can, I will, I am. Today I will track what I eat and I’m also going to a kickboxing class tonight. I’m going because I was told the music is really good, it’s an ass busting workout, and my friend is giving me a free pass. I’m still surprised that a workout sounds like fun to me. Badass!
