I hate days like this- it was nice- but I like to be home a little. I can't imagine being gone all day everyday.

Just reading that made me tired.

Me, too. I'm totatlly impressed you managed to squeeze getting a work out in a day that packed!

Hope said...

Yes, being gone all the time is hard. I think it makes it harder for me to exercise because when I get home from work I just want to be HOME! I am really a homebody and I love my house and my family much more than anything else. I guess I have to let that "love my family" part be that part that motivates me to get out and exercise so I can be here longer and healthier.

Sugarmama said...

Uh, yeah, this is some couple of days! And I, too, am impressed that a workout still managed to find its way into your schedule. I'm so slack...

whew! days like that wear me out. I have to plan them so that I have a day at home afterwards, otherwise I'm stressed out beyond recognition.
