Do you ever have those days where you wake up 2 hours after your alarm went off, you didn't realize that you were the one to turn it off, and now your panicking?
Well, I did. Yesterday. Apparently Zumba takes a whole lot out of me. Not to mention a little man that didn't want to sleep through the night. Maybe it was just my body screaming that I needed to take a day off. So, instead of being angry with myself for not getting up, instead of trying to squeeze a workout in sometime during the day, and instead of going crazy trying to figure out how I'm going to make it up, I took the whole day to play with my kids and not worry about anything else.
Sometimes it's a good idea to listen to my body. Do what it says. And just have a day of fun and rest. It was fantastic. A wonderful day of books, movies, treats and my little ones thought it was fantastic. I could get used to a fun day off once in a while.
Your biggest challenge isn't someone else. It's the ache in your lungs, and the burning in your legs, and the voice inside you that yells can't. But you don't listen. You just push harder. And then you hear the voice whisper can. And you discover that the person you thought you were is NO match for the one you really are.

Much Needed Rest Day
I got up this morning at 5am, when I usually do, and decided that I needed to sleep in. I rolled over and cuddled my little baby and went right back to sleep. I do not regret taking a little break. Tomorrow I will be back at it with Day 14. Ready and willing to push it. Getting rid of this big butt and flabby stomach, it's all the motivation I need.
