Sunshine in My Soul

I have said it before and I will say it again, I am like a bi polar crazy woman in all aspects of the health related industry.

I woke up this morning to some cheer leading texts, I got a massage, the sun was shining, my kids were amazing... I had a busy full day. And something clicked-- I am not about to just endure the next 7 days... I fully intend on killing the next 7 days. I will not, I refuse to even think about getting on that stage with regret from the final week. I have been on fire for so long, and that fire is not about ready to sizzle.

So today I chose to think on the bright side. And I did. If I felt my mind sway towards negativity, I chose to turn into the bright side. The sun shining brightly outside and the warm weather in fact helped this perspective of mine and I was reminded of how blessed I truly am.

I am able bodied, and able minded to start and accomplish this task of becoming a figure competitor-- a blessing not all people have. I surely don't intend on taking the last week of my prep for granted.

My husband had his training, initiation, I don't really know what it is called but I can assure you it is a bit like what I imagine HELL is like, and is mentally, physically, and spiritually EXHAUSTING! But he rocked it, like I knew deep down he would. I am a very proud wife tonight, and even more proud that I think, just maybe, my husband is starting to see the man I see when I look at him, when he looks in the mirror. He really is a stud friends.

So my last "shoulder only" workout was today. Tomorow is "back" only, and Sunday "glute only" and then I get into two circuit training sessions and one cardio only day. And then it is bada bing bada boom, the show is in two days.

Yomorow is Saturday-- we have soccer with the bug first thing after fasted cardio-- and then we have an entire day to spend as a family. I am so excited, it is the first in a long time, where there isn't a laundry list of things to run and do.

I trained 3 clients tonight, 4 on Monday and then I am done until after the show. SO SO exciting!!

Day 6, coming up.
