Spring Break

Last week was spring break for the kids and that meant very little time for workouts for me. I have to figure out a schedule for summer because last week just did not work for me. Jack was in camp from 9-12 each day and we had grandmas here for a few days here and there as well. It just felt like we didn't have a schedule and I was trying to cram everything into those 3 hours when Jack wasn't home. I can't go to the grocery store, do school work, get a workout in, and entertain Madison all within those 3 hours each day. I've been looking at some activities for the kids this summer and trying to figure out how in the world I'm going to do it all. Not having schoolwork will help of course.

 The kids are at an age where they want to be entertained constantly. They must be doing something at all times or I start hearing, "I'm bored!" every few minutes. They need routine and schedule and I need them to have a schedule for my own sanity. They get out of school June 1st and we leave for vacation the next week so I have to figure out the end of June, all of July, and maybe a week in August. There are a lot of fun camps and activities around here and I think Madison is going to do a pottery camp with a friend for at least one week.

I found out yesterday that one of my trainers isn't going to be working there anymore. I really do like all of the others, but she was kind of what held all of us girls together. Female kickboxers kind of get a reputation of not being feminine and she would show everyone that you could do both. You can kick ass with the boys during your workout and still stand around after and talk about your kids. I saw her show many girls that tough can be sexy. Just because we put on our gloves and beat on things doesn't mean we aren't girls. It just means we are girls who have confidence and skills.

Now off to the gym to hopefully get some miles in on the treadmill. I'm on spring break this week. Yay!
