Membership has it's rewards...
Wednesday is the weekday I sleep in. 5:15 is a sweet thing... I lead a women's small group bible study which meets @ 6:30 in the local coffee hole. Awesome, eclectic, unique women. The more different things are...the better. I LOVE diversity. The House of Blues had a poster that read "Embrace Diversity" but they stopped making them before I could get my hands on one...bummer.
Work was crazy. I'm on the road most of the day and lately I think there's a sign on my bumper saying "getter". I'm dodging these nuts all day, and when you throw a few sprinkles in, everyone loses it. YIKES!
After work, into the gym for 5 mile run on the treadmill. I'm usually beat by the end of the day so I work on speed intervals, hit 5 clicks and get out. Funny...different crowd in the eve's. Lots of weary faces with smudged mascara and a look that screams "I'm spent". I wish I could make & deliver dinner to each of their homes so they'd have one night off. Maybe they'll go home, steal their husbands and get a little crazy...(make em feel like they're alive!). I hope they’re not beyond it… REMEMBER TO GET CRAZY! Brenda (personal trainer-friend) offers to train with me in the Pilates studio...suddenly I'm not so tired! I love that sore ache in my abs when we get done. I feel so strong and centered. I always think I can do more…be better. Not a bad goal as long as you keep it balanced in the whole enchilada of life. I need to look for ways to mix up the morning workouts. Getting bored. Time to hit the zillion Running/Pilates/Yoga/Weight Training books in my library for a new plan. I am so bad at that. Get into the habit of the same thing over and over. My mantra of the day (and only today…want to leave my options open!): Keep focused on the right priorities. Do it right and have fun doing it. I'll always be working on it...and that's half the fun.
Live Passionately!

I'd say starting with the 6:30 Bible study your priorities are in the right place!
I don't know how anyone can love the "sore ache" of a good ab work out I hate them soooooo much. I always get mad at the video/instructor. I just wish I had your drive to get up so early! Course Im somewhat in a sleep deprived state lately on average 6 is as good as it gets. Time change this weekend.
