Sweaty Spice

In the moments of peace and solitude...

BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Who'm I kidding?? I have four kids!

But, in those moments when one is asleep and the rest are outside for forced summer-ruining playtime, that's when I feel like writing about the rest of the time; the crazy parts.

Speaking of crazy, I've been exercising M-F since the end of May.  Jazzercise, baby!

It's fun and makes me feel good about myself, but I'm not seeing results.  At least the scale isn't.

I feel like maybe I'm possibly losing inches, but I never took measurements.  Wish I did.  I'm feeling rather frustrated.

I'm going to keep going, though.  Afterall, I'm paid through the end of August.  ;)

I have to wonder what midlife crisis feels like and what age it typically hits:  I feel like I'm in it.

I've been doing a lot of soul-searching, lately, and having the goal to be able to look back with no regrets is hitting home.

I want my kids to know me.  I want them to see me as a person, not just their mom.  I want them to see who I am.

I've been trying to be more involved in my own life, with my kids, with my marriage.  I found myself trying to escape all the time, either into a book or my latest favorite on Netflix.  I don't like that.  Even now, I'm thinking I've been on the computer for WAY too long.

So, I'm going to call this good, for now.  :)
