And your excuse is??

I don’t know who this little boy is, but he is quite adorable. Makes our excuses seem so lame, right? Hope you find time to be active today, even if it’s just taking a walk. Get moving, we all start somewhere!

WOD & Strength done for the day! Like my “box” 😉 Week 3 of WOD has started.

So, I did hit 1000 squats for last week. Go me! Going to shoot for push-ups this week, because I strongly hate need to become better at them. I mean really, I just don’t like them. I’m not good at them, they hurt, no bueno. And yes, I realize now that my picture above says “7 butlers” thanks iPhone for that. I’m so tired, I didn’t even catch it. Supposed to be ‘burpees’. Once again, Jess @ blondeponytail provided the upper body workout. The awesome thing about this workout is the shoulders are firing constantly. I don’t know if you can read that upper picture, but it was:

Push-up to ‘T’, Thrusters, Walking plank, Hand-release push-ups, High-pull lawnmower –10 reps, 5 sets.

What’s fueling you?

I’m a firm believer in supplements if you are willing to put the work in. Sadly, there is no  magic diet pill.

I know this is way off fitness topic. But I will be flying in a few months with my daughter, by myself. She is 2 1/2. You can imagine my concern and I’ve actually flown with her before. It wasn’t good, it was exhausting. I understand why people don’t like kids on planes, but I feel I deserve to spend time with my family over the holidays just like you do. Driving cross-country by myself just isn’t really an option with a child (I mean, it is, but would you want to drive 3,000 miles by yourself?) Exactly. Sooooooo, last time we flew, she was in my lap. I’m buying her a seat this time and I’m strongly considering a car seat. I know I will have to lug it around, but if it means more security and keeps her strapped in for 4 hours, I’m all for it. Has anybody flown with car seats before? Best brands? I like the Eddie Bauer/Safety 1st boosters. But just don’t know. I will be contacting the airline once I buy our tickets to ask but thought I’d ask for feedback. This mom would appreciate ANY advice!! Thanks!
