Today's challenge- or rather yesterday's challenge

Yesterday was a long and exhausting day. My cousin needed a babysitter and I agreed to help. What was I thinking! Holy cow, was I running around all day! Certainly makes me glad I didn't start that home day care I first dreamed of when i became a stay at home mom! hahahhaa! But, I did make it for a walk before they arrived and we even made it down to the Starbucks around the corner. There and back was just over a mile. Although, I ended up realizing how hard it is to keep a hot beverage from shooting out of the cup while it's nestled into it's cup holder on the stroller. Just too bumpy of a ride. Will have to rethink that adventure before I do it again, but at least I got out 1st thing and did it.
If I can convince my hubby this morning I think I'll get him to go out with me and my daughter for a walk this morning. We'll see. Anyhow, by the time the kids left all i could think of was getting my "real" work done and getting to bed. I have to admit, I didn't do 1 bit of extra exercising, but with this whole new experience I am trying to remember to forgive myself for not getting everything done that i want to accomplish in 1 day. So, not being upset with myself for not doing my video and bands is new to me. But at the same time, Almost liberating. I guess I'm realizing more and more waking up and telling myself that today is a new day, yesterday is over and today is the day! Acting as is each new day is the start of a new challenge (hence the titles of these blogs being today's challenge) makes things easier in a way it's never been before. :) Also makes me proud, 5 days and counting and so far not 1 day has been filled with negative thinking, binging or un-forgiven. laziness has been involved, but calculated laziness... does that even make sense.
As for my food yesterday... i admit my choices sort of sucked. But then again. I calculated those choices very carefully and since I was so busy running around after the kids I wasn't hungry most of the day anyhow. I stayed within my WW points and used 5 of my exercise points that I've built up for the week. but ya know, Starbucks was so worth it :) Here's to another great day!

Always,
Jules
