Halloween - scary for sure!


Yes we worked it out on Halloween. Scary for sho' but in a good way!! It was a crazy day - after the work out that we were told that they were going to take it easy on us! HA!!!! Whatever! I had to bolt home get myself dressed in my costume, "ghetto pippy", get my husband - "Devil Man" & my little cuteness Mary, "pirate princess" back into town for the big Halloween party. I was spent. I couldn't move. So, I kept close to the house. Actually, I didn't leave. The funniest part was when I had to change my babies diaper. I'm bending over Mary & my muscles are so fatigued that I couldn't hold myself in a 90 degree angle over her. I felt myself slowly falling on top of her. I'm calling out to Shawn to get some help! He didn't come so I'm on my elbows trying to change Mary. I was laughing so hard Mary thought I had lost it. Hilarious!!! The next day - whoa - even worse. I couldn't move. But I got out there & got busy. No running or anything, except chasing after Mary. Sunday, well, that was all about the Titans!!! Right on!!

Come Monday, we are back at it again. I found myself getting frustrated because we always start with a run. Which I've made no secret that I'm not a fan of running. But hey I'm down. Why I was getting frustrated is everytime we go to the bootcamp they add more to the run. I just once want to finish without stopping the run or I should say jog! I want to feel like I've accomplished it! You know. I hate to see what we'll start with on Wednesday. That's the only thing I don't look forward too. Alright moving on - so on to the ab section. I've been apart of athletics for years however, now I'm all about being a Mom! Cool right!! When I had my c-section you don't realize how it will affect you physically. You have no more stomack muscles, it also affects your thighs & your back strength. So, we do some crazy ab work. One of the is called the plank! Just throw me in the water - O.K! I feel like my back is caving in! Where's all my strength! Oh yea - it's gone. My mind is doing one thing & my body something totally different. I know it's all good but it's hard to think -- boy you are so outta shape girl! But that's why I'm there - to get it going on!!!

Until the next time - see ya - bye!!
