Today, thanks to horrible allergies, I woke up feeling as though a big truck had crushed my lungs by repeatedly rolling over me. I was in absolutely no mood to get myself out of bed, nevermind, three little ones off to school and myself to my adult jazz class. (Even the thought of dancing on chairs did not pique my interest... truly a sad state of mind I was in.)
Luckily, my husband is working from home today and had a cup of coffee waiting me as I descended the stairs. Thank God he is a morning person because he was even jovial when I begged him to rescue my Mucinex (nasal decongestant) from the back of the Mamamobile. Once the medicine was working and I was somewhat functioning, I settled into a chair and waited to wake up.
I was a bit anxious for some reason about feeling full today. I think it was because the doctor warned me that I would be starving. I wondered how one little cup of Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of chocolate peanut butter and some sliced strawberries would hold me on my exercising. When I put the concoction into my bowl though, I was so surprised. It was actually twice the amount I usually eat for breakfast - and so darn yummy!
Feeling better, I got the kids ready and we left in the rain for yet another rainy Spring day. After drop off and going to the bank for some cash, I decided to go to our local cafe for a water. I knew that I would puke if I tried to have coffee then work out for an hour. Luckily one of my mommy friends was there and we had a nice chat over her bubble tea and my water. Then we headed out for our dance class.
I am so glad that I went. We had a ball. The only problem was that the Mucinex made me dizzy with every leap and every turn. From my 1/2 marathon training days I should have remembered... I will file that in my brain box.
