keep going, self!

yesterday was the first day of the kids' 4-day weekend. it would have meant having so much time to go to the gym but on the same day, our trusted yaya had to go home to attend to her sick mother. since my new resolve is to never miss a day at the gym, i asked the hubby if he could come home straight from work and be with the daughter. you see, she has this new habit of always wanting to have a parent or yaya around. but lo and behold! when the hub arrived home, our little girl would not want me to leave. i was the preferred company! :) 

i initially thought of going to the gym as soon as she sleeps. after all, my gym never sleeps. but no, she was awake til past 10:00 PM that i just told myself to just stay home and not dwell on it and sulk. 

today, i was hoping to really hit the gym before we head off to our pre-summer family getaway. but no! the hub had to work until 12 PM and we had to leave for Mactan at 1:00 PM.  i was really sad that i missed going to the gym for 2 consecutive days, afraid that like before, i'd lose momentum and quit altogether.


thank God for this new-found determination and/or dedication, i really went to the resort's health club at 930 PM when the kids were already asleep. i just did cardio exercises (treadmill and stationary bike). i feel good. i'm happy.

  1. yes! keep going Mims. btw, if all else fails we can always work-out at home. even 20 minutes is fine.
