Twas two days before Christmas and all through the house,
every creature was stirring including the dust bunnies.
The stockings were thrown on the couch without care,
In hopes that a fireplace and a mantle would appear.
The children were crazy monkey's running a muck,
While visions of nice Italian red wine ran through mommy's mind.
And me with my kleenex and dad in his cap,
Had just wresteled with the wrappings and all that other crap.....
Ahhh, I used to love Christmas now I'm slowly turning in the opposite direction. I haven't worked out since Monday and sadly had planned workouts that I missed. I'm not even close to being done cleaning and my mom (love her I do) arrived 3 days early. I just can't get things done around here and its all building up. Today I was late for a class at the gym, I really wasn't motivated to do it myself, so instead of sucking it up and going on the treadmill I cried in my car. Too much stress and really this is supposed to be a fun time. I sat and teared up for a bit than I wiped my tears away, looked like crap and went into the mall part and finished my shopping. Definitely not what I had planned and I really needed that workout but I know this happens at this time of year. Tomorrow I'm suppposed to go for a weigh in but I don't want to see it up, I will face the music and still go though.
I apologize this is not a cheery posting, perhaps a little funny and picture me pulling my hair out about now because that is how I feel. IT will be fine and all workout in the end.

Big hugs!! I know this time of year can suck and I share your pain about not working out. I'm so tired from the pregnancy that I just can't even think of working out let alone actually drag my sorry butt on the treadmill. You're not alone in your stress and freak outs so don't let it get you down. Remember that Christmas doesn't have to be perfect for it to be special to your family! Make the most of what you can and just enjoy your family time! Your babies will be grown up before you know it, and it's the time you spend with them that matter.
Sorry you had such a stressful time. I hope you can relax and enjoy the little ones this weekend. They are what it is all about and it is so easy for us to put too much pressure on ourselves to do too much, when all they want is us to spend time with them. Merry Christmas!
