Catching up!

Happy 4th everyone!! on 12seconds.tv

I can't believe its been a week since I last wrote here - sorry folks! Alright, let's catch up.

Last week was supposed to be my triumphant return to the last week of Turbo Jam. And then I went home sick on Monday. And Tuesday. And couldn't eat like normal until late Thursday. I'll spare you the details but needless to say, the workout plan failed to pan out. It wasn't without trying but in the end my body was telling me that I needed to knock it off and get some rest. (evidenced by the other 12 hour nap I took Tuesday night into Wednesday morning)

I'm feeling better...not quite 100% but definitely better. I have a feeling that after tackling my to-do list today and tomorrow at home (I'm at my parents' now) I'll feel less stressed and more focused. Besides all that, I have to feel better. Why? Because TURBOFIRE starts tomorrow. And besides all that, Turbo Kick training is on Sunday the 11th. One week from today! So here's the deal body...you've basically gotten two weeks off. I've slept, eaten better, done everything you've asked. Lookin' for a little return on investment this week and I promise it will be worth it!

I've been spending the weekend with my family...baseball and fireworks on Friday night, movie with my little sister yesterday, cookout last night, brunch this morning and then I'll be taking off. I've been keeping my phone nearby - keeping it charged is tough though since the poor thing struggles to find signal out here sometimes - to make sure everytime I think of something to-do over the next two days I can put it on my list. I know to some that doesn't seem like the thing to do during vacation / long weekend / holidays but I swear it helps keep me less stressed. Just because I add it to the list doesn't mean I have to do it right now. It means I take it off my mind and don't worry about remembering to get that little thing done later when I'm not spending important time with my family.

How's your holiday going? I hope you're enjoying your 4th, celebrating and having fun with family and friends!

The TurboFire starts tomorrow! Look for the schedule I'll be following (the basic plan for those who already have it!), my notes on my first workout, and general Fired up excitment all here. Are you joining me for TurboFire? Let me know!!

Thanks for stopping by! See you tomorrow!!
