Confession

by workoutmommy on May 15, 2009

I haven’t been to the gym in over a week because my husband has been out of town. (before you recommend the gym daycare, please read this post.)

Gym daycare + my kids = gigantic FAILURE.

So, I’ve been doing my best to squeeze in some mini-workouts here and there but it just isn’t the same. I need a challenging,hardcore workout ALONE.
Mommy needs me-time!

So this weekend, I plan to spend a few hours at the gym AND outside working up a fantastic sweat.

I cannot wait!
How about you, what’s your plan?

ENJOY your weekend, and get some quality YOU time in! I’ll be taking it a bit easy on Saturday, then going to Bikram yoga on Sunday (and then taking the kids swimming…yay!).

Hope you can get your time in the gym again soon.

Seriously, I find yard work is a great exercise routine, especially with the push reel mower.

yard work is a great option, especially with jungle like grass thanks to all this east coast rain.

Hope you were able to get in a great weekend workout!
