Get Off Your Butt and Start Moving!!!

These are my instructions to myself this morning. I've spent way too much time waiting for myself to get moving. Sound familiar?

I'm usually a doer, but lately have found myself waiting. I hate to wait. It's like the kiss of death. We ordered our flooring almost 2 weeks ago, and I'm itching to get started. Our dining room and front hallway have been sitting naked for 2 those 2 weeks, but we've had no choice. The carpeting and its nasty smell HAD to go, so we have had naked concrete. We have 1000 square feet of wood coming and I can't wait! Grrrr... I hate waiting.

Another way I have had to kick myself in the rear is my hatred of cardio exercise. I absolutely hate it. But nothing positive is going to happen in my health unless I start... so I got on the ellyptical a few minutes ago. I'll get back on it every hour or so for the rest of the day and do between 3 and 5 minutes each time. Hey, it's a start. With the new floor in the gym complete, and insulation about to go up, I have to start practicing what I preach. The trouble is, the ellyptical is in the office, which is crammed full of what I had in the dining room. I thought I would be done with the floor by now and everything would go back to "better than" normal. Since it hasn't happened that way, I cleared some space and got on the ellyptical anyway. Three minutes. Shameful. I'll do better in an hour or so.

In the meantime, I've got some other things to do. I have to work on more paperwork for the next grant for school, study and workup the next workout. I also have a couple of gift cards to send out for, order a few items of clothing, look at insurance garbage, and and and... Oh good grief. Can I just go back to bed now?
