Fresh Start

It's August ! 27 more days until the kids go back to school and we become sheduled again. I have mixed feelings. I LOVE a schedule - I like to anticipate and plan for events. I have this need to be prepared. That said, I have had a lot of fun with the kids this summer. They are a lot more enjoyable out of diapers and naps. My #1 daughter is becoming a great skater. I will never forget her landing a jump for the first time and looking up at me with that "Did you see that?" look. My little one, now 4, has learned to swim on her own and vows never to use a bubble again. It makes me smile to see her determined little face, just barely visible above the water --- swimming. We've spent hours at the town beach, made new friends and had ice cream for supper more than once... I've gotten my workouts in.... though I've lost no weight... It's OK. Structure is coming.... I know that I am not going back to school, but I still feel that sense of a FRESH START with the new school year. I have PLANS - diet, exercise and HOME plans. I feel close to being back on track....

Today I am tracking my food on WW e-tools again. It seems only fitting to start on the first of the month. I have a fridge filled with fresh veggies. Although it's late - 900 a.m., my intent is to get to the Y and run. It's been two days since Danskin and I've done nothing .... I really need to run! I've signed up for spin tomorrow. It's all good.
