DAY TWO

Okay....I have to say that I am proud of myself for doing the workout today.  Not only are my muscles so sore that they feel like they are going to fall off of the bone, but I also woke up with a head cold.

Awesome.

I was amazed, last night, at how much heavier my dishes seemed as I pulled them out of my dishwasher.  When I noticed that my trash can needed to have a new bag put it, I was devastated because I knew that it meant that I had to bend over to put it in, and I wasn't quite sure if I'd be able to get back up again..  I am so, so very lame.....

On to today....

I still couldn't find my hand weights (and I KNOW that they are in this house somewhere....so frustrating), and I used one of the yesterday's cans of spaghetti for dinner last night, so I ended up using the remaining 26-ounce can of spaghetti sauce in my right hand, and a 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes in the other.  What am I explaining all of this?  Hmmmmmmm......I guess to show that ANYONE can do this if they commit to it.....even a mom of a three-year-old, a one-year-old, and cans from the pantry.  It just takes a little imagination!  Also, if you find that my right arm is visibly buffer than my left at the end of the week, it apparently is credited to two ounces of crushed tomatoes.  :-)

The hardest part of today's workout (due to the sore muscles) was acutally the transitioning between the standing workouts and the floor work--I would actually have to grab hold of the ottoman just to hoist myself back up to a standing position.  Pretty sad.  But, I have to admit, the sore muscles felt better after today's workout. 

My three year old "worked out" next to me today (Again....you make it work if need be--hee hee).  For her handweights, she used her play kitchen cell phone in one hand and a toy plastic pitcher in the other.  Hilarious!   I asked her if she wanted to exercise with mommy every day, and she said, "Yes....but can we do it again and again today?"

Uh......no.

See you tomorrow!
