Back to the grind

The last few days, weeks and months have been a blur for me.  My oldest turned 3, I started a new flex schedule at work, my oldest landed herself in the hospital for a couple of days...the list goes on and on.  In other words, more excuses not to exercise or eat right. 

For the most part, I do eat very healthily at work.  It's the home part and running around that always does me in.  I do walk sometimes at work with my coworker, but I seem to rarely make time for it at home.  I went jogging the other evening and was surprised at how well I did considering the recent lack of exercise.

My doctor tested me this week for a thyroid disorder, so it'll be interesting to see what the results are.  My labs in the last few months have pointed to a possible hypothyroid.  If that's the case, I'll get on some meds and hopefully they'll help speed me up a bit!

In the meantime, Troy's work just started a perk where they'll pay half of a gym membership for him, up to $50.00.  That means we can re-join the Y, because we'll be able to afford it!  I really enjoyed going to the morning exercise classes when we briefly joined earlier this year.

So, hopefully things will start to look up soon.  I've got to get my booty in gear!  We're going on a cruise to Bermuda in less than 4 months.  Oh, and I'm running the 8k in November with Angie!  Fun times.
