All Moved In

We are finally all moved in and getting back to some resemblence of normal in our lives. I am finding I love having a smaller place. I can get up and clean house before the kids even start! We have always lived in smaller places until the last hosue and it was huge...we thought we needed the space, but over the last year had come to realize that much of it was just that space...no one used the upstairs, there was an extra room downstairs that became a toy/junk room and the laundry room and big walkin pantry became other junk areas...the smaller place fits us and reminds me that sometimes we get caught up in keeping up with the Jones and forget who we are...we like simple...this works for us...

I have been run walking this week...I have a cold and it is making running hard, but I have found an amazing area to run just behind the new house...quiet roads with lots of hills...yes hills excite me now! It is like conquering a foe to make it to the top of these long hills around here...it empowers me and makes me feel strong!

I have also been doing crossfit workouts at home. I have really come to love this style of working out! Some are long, some are short, but all are intense! I love intense...again it is about feeling strong, like a warrior! I can push through them knowing that when I am done, I have fought hard..

Now that the internet is back I plan to do some workout dvd's for kickboxing and cardio dance..we will see what else I find I like....

For the time being, my workouts are at home or in the neighborhood...we still have no car, that means no gym...trying to decide what to do with the gym membership...I am going to see if I can freeze it until I get a car, I don't want to cancel it because I am a charter member and can go to any of our gyms...if I cancel it, I will be limited to the one I would join near here...

Getting ready to get focused back on school. It is almost time for the kids to start so I am going to have to be dillegent with my time for working out, school for them, family fun, God, household stuff and my own study time...working on a plan today to make it happen...

Now I hear a WOD calling me....I was informed this is my game...got to bring it today!!
