Guess who was up and out the door at 6:30am this morning for the gym???
You guessed it! I know, I shocked myself, too.
On the way to the gym this morning, I snacked on a Clif Z Bar to fend off any hunger. I don’t like eating too much before an early morning workout, but I needed a little somethin’-somethin’.
For today’s BodyPump class, our instructor went back to Release 73, which was actually one of my favorites. I knew there was a reason I got up so early for it!
One of my favorite songs in that release is the chest track, which is I Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas. I’m sorta partial to it since it totally makes me think back to this amazing day.
After pump, I hopped on a treadmill for a quick 1-mile run, followed up with 10 minutes on the Stairmaster. That machine will be the death of me. Good lord. Any longer than 10 minutes and I probably would have fallen right off the back of it. Yowsahs!

On my way home, I stopped to grab an iced coffee from Flavour and also made sure to pick up an extra one to surprise hubby with.
I came home to find two lazy bums chillin’ in the living room.
Actually, while we’re talkin’ Cody, I must share my little encounter with him this morning. I walked out of the bathroom to grab my sweatshirt, and when I came back, I noticed this in front of me…
A few minutes before that, I had grabbed a new roll of toilet paper for the bathroom, and since it was the last one in the package, I left the bag on the floor.
For all of about 2 minutes.
And sure enough, he found his way in. Talk about a character!

My tummy was rumblin’ as soon as I got home, so I made a quick and easy breakfast.
Toasted whole wheat English muffin, topped with pumpkin, TJ’s almond butter with flax (LOVE this stuff, but good god it’s hard to stir!), banana slices, and chia seeds.
Plus the rest of the ‘naner on the side with a little more almond butter.
Delish!
I was actually supposed to have my first softball practice today, but since it’s raining cats and dogs out there, we had to cancel. So who knows where the day will bring me now!
Question for the Day:
What songs (if any) do you associate with special events in your life?
