Day 14: Week Two!

Tuesday, April 12, 2016

Wake up 5:30am

Welcome to week two of the Fit Bride in 85 Challenge! I must say, I am thrilled that this day falls on a Tuesday because tonight is ZUMBA night! Tuesdays are quickly becoming my favorite day of the week. The mix of aerobic and body-weight strength training is perfect for having fun and getting fit.

Today sort of felt like a race to complete everything that needed to be done. Maybe you feel that way on Tuesdays? After the Monday slump has subsided, I get a serge of energy to complete the week's tasks on Tuesdays.

I find that having one really neat thing to look forward to each week actually makes life much more enjoyable. For example, Quinn and I used to watch a TV show on Hulu called Miranda every Thursday evening before we were dating. I'd get home from a long day of work and make dinner, then he'd stop by after he got off of work and we'd laugh until our sides hurt. I suppose we were dating then too, but I didn't know it. Those are the sweet memories I will cherish forever! (If you haven't seen that show, I highly suggest it if you like to laugh!)
