First week and a half down....

Well, the first week and a half of being a stay at home mom is over. We all made it and we are all adjusting well. A gigantic shout out to Ms. Beth and Ms, Sherry for allowing Ayva into Preschool LATE.  You two rock.  I was sad this summer knowing that Ayva was not going to be able to be in the best preschool program ever because of my new job. I felt like she was going to be missing out on all of the fun things Graci was able to do when she was this age.  So maybe losing my job was a blessing truly.  Yeah I was sad but with two weeks to deal with it, I realize that it wasnt for me.  Full time in a horribly stressful field raising a family is horrible on the body and mind.  I havent taken care of myself mentally in a LONG time and that was not working out for myself or my family.  I feel free now.  I feel like it is time to be the old me, the fun and very energetic person I used to be.  Those of you who know me know that I have crazy low self esteem, well this is the time to change it.  Yeah staying home hoe isnt always going to be glitter and rainbows and it will be very challenging but I am up for this challenge. I GOT THIS...

I started the Couch to 5K program last week and did pretty well.  I didnt die, and i really didnt hurt to bad.  Well yesterday I decided to do this outside with my dog.  It went pretty well, I actually felt pretty good and crazy proud of myself.  But today, let me say OMG...I feel like I was ran over by a truck.  It doesnt help that I am sick and my chest is killing me either.  My legs feel like they are going to give out on me at any moment and my ankles pretty much hate my guts as well.  Oh well, back at it tomorrow.  I am hoping to start the P90X program here soon too, but well one step at a time here.  I fear if I do to much right away I will hate it and not return to it, because lets face it, if I fail I give up.  Any tips out there for work outs please comment and let me know...I love to hear it all...~ XOXO
