Back to work

This weekend was a success for me.  Not sure if I will be down anything according to the scale, but emotionally and physically, it was a win for me.  

I followed my three simple goals of track, walk, and drink water.  I met all three goals, each day of my three-day weekend.  Took a little planning to make sure I got my step goal, but other than that, it was easy.  

Yesterday was a really good day for me.  I had the energy to get things checked off my to-do list, go for a walk, had my mom over to help with the Lego inventory, and took a 30-40 nap.  Most Sundays I would struggle to get one or two things done and would take a 1 - 2 hour nap.  And Hubby and I did the stretching video last night.  Woke up with a few less aches and pains.  Definitely need to add that to my daily goals as part of the walking goal.

Today, I go back to work.  Work stress seems to derail me from my goals, but having success last week gives me the confidence that I can make it through another week.  It will also be another short week for me since Hubby and I are going away for the weekend (which will be a different challenge, but will deal with that as I get closer to the weekend). 

I'm going to continue to focus on my goals, take breaks when I start to feel stressed, and try to remind myself that it is just a job, not my life.  Which is sometimes hard to do when you spend so much time at work...

Our four little foster kittens,
Clancy, Simba, Waylon, and Charlotte

This week will be fairly busy between work, kitten things (we are fostering 4 kittens at the moment, quite the handful), and getting ready to be gone for a couple of days.  Need to put a notice on the online store that processing will be delayed, have the cat/house sitter visit to go over the routine, and will need to pack at some point.  

Ugh, I'm rambling again.  I seem to do that when I try to do a blog before work.  But this is the best time for me to do it.  I'm usually busy with the Lego store, kittens, chores and other stuff after work.  Time slips by and I don't post anything.  

Now that I'm getting into a healthy routine, I may cut back on posting a blog every day.  Try to post at least once a week, and then maybe I will have more to say that isn't a rambling mess.  LOL

Today I will follow my three simple goals of tracking, walking, and drinking water.  I got this!
