So run down...

...I have next to no energy again today. I fell asleep last night around 8:15 PM, slept until 6:15 AM, and still feel totally wiped out. I've been struggling with my work outs the past few days, not wanting to do them at all, but doing them anyway, and I just feel achey all over. I have yet to do my work out this morning and have been putting it off in a major way, I just have no drive. But I'll do it. Otherwise, I'll feel more crappy.

I think this weather is really starting to depress me. We had a day or two of spring-like weather, then it went back to cold and snowy. And made me extremely crabby in the process. I had a taste of spring and then it was taken away from me. It's another dreary and cold day out. Fun, fun.

I'm anxious for spring. I'm so tired of this! Not to wish time away, but I've had enough of this winter business.

And that is my random thought. I think I've got my usual case of seasonal depression going on, because I'm just not feeling right. Funny though, because guess what, tomorrow it's supposed to be in the 50's and thunderstorms are possible! Talk about crazy extremes!

 

spring will be here soon

watch a fun flick and have some time for yourself to just be silly and let loose
{{hugs}}
~lots of love hun~

 

Oooh, that looks so purty!

My kids keep saying "mommy, I want the flowers to come out!" I promised them that we'd plant some more flowers come spring, they're so excited. They love helping plant flowers, getting down in the dirt with mommy's permission to get nice and filthy!

 

yay.. flower steppin' time

 

Now that's not very nice!

 

heh. Of course it's not, that's why I said it. Honestly, I don't do that, that's a bit weird to think about lol. Do you think flowers feel pain? Do you like weeds?

 

Hmmm, I don't know if they feel pain, but it makes me really sad to think about someone stepping on them.

I have something I've been meaning to ask you...check your messages.

 

What's that? something not very hippie-like eh? ohh gosh, I just come on here to mess around. I don't step on them err not intentionally anyway.

 

i hear ya, i have no energy, no motivation to do anything but sleep and stare at the computer. its ridiculous. i got hours of sleep and im still exhaustd

 

Awwww that sucks, sweetie. That's good that you're still doing your workouts though anyways. I know I don't always feel like doing them either...

And hey, it is almost spring Daylight savings time is starting three weeks early this year too.

 

LOL

You're funny. My kinda humor.

nothing wrong with taking a day off if you feel down to rejuvinate. just remember, that its a day, not a week off...

 

You have three young active babies! Maybe this is your body's way of screaming 'More me time please!!!'.
I feel bad even commenting because I don't have kids and know if I did I wouldn't have your stamina and patience.
Damn woman you're pretty freaking incredible!!!

 

How do you motivate yourself to workout? I am soooo tired. I work really early and really late but found a 24 hour gym near work...but I am hesistant in joining because I don't know if my motivation is enough for work, school AND the gym.
Please tell me what you say to yourself. No matter how much I try to guilt myself or be positive I can't gather the energy to do it.

 

I know you didn't ask me but how I motivate myself to work out is to remind myself of my goals and all the progress I've made and I remember how working out actually gives me energy in the long run more then taking it.

A lot of times I don't feel like it and I just start anyways and sometimes I end up feeling really happy and a burst of energy during the workout, sometimes not... but I'm always happy I did it.

I do agree with fitzy though that missing a day isn't so bad. In fact, it's probably good to miss a day now and then.

 

I usually do my work out in the mornings, just part of my whole morning routine. I just think about pictures I've seen of myself when I had a little more weight on me after the twins, and I think about how I felt then, and then I think about all the cute little sexy outfits I can wear by keeping up with my work-outs, and that usually does the trick!

 

Hehehe, oh yeah, I know I'm needing some "me time" lately. Haven't had any of that in goodness knows how long!

And thankyou! *blushes*

 

I know you're right. I work out 7 days a week, and lately, man, it's been rough! Everybody, including my husband, tells me I should give myself a little break sometimes, but if I don't work out that day, I feel bad, more in a mental way than a physical one though.

He (hubby) works out every other day. I envy that. I've been tossing around the idea of going every other day, just doing a longer workout on those days. I don't know, we'll see.

 

Awww, thanks Lucky!

I'm really looking forward to spring, that's for sure!
