Sometimes I get so distra.....uh... what was I saying?



















I'm horribly distracted....
I have a million and one things I need to be doing.....I'm starting to get a bit panicky.
The list keeps growing and I'm being buried alive under a pile of virtual to dos that include projects related to the wedding, school, moving, house, beach and whatever else is swimming around in my head these days. I have a SHIT TON to do. Unfortunately, blogging isn't high on the priority list right now. Oddly enough, here I am. Hello avoidance, I've been expecting you.
School is the main focus (a-hem, correction -  should be the main focus) right now. There's quite a few projects, their due dates looming in the dangerously near future, that I just can't seem to sit down and finish. It's irritating and frustrating but I seem to have lost all focus and it's a bitch trying to find it again.
This is no doubt my self diagnosed adult ADD kicking in - I start one thing with complete gusto then about half way through go onto something else and have zero desire to finish the other project I've started....
If that doesn't reek of a dysfunctional disorder of some sort, I don't know what does.
I realize I'll be cursing myself next week if I don't get at least part way through the list (between today and tomorrow), but I suspect that's just par for the course. Bust out the Cuss Jar, people - I've got cash money!
Josh and I are (yey!!) beach bound this weekend so that also severely cuts into my school work time, although let's face it, with 74 degree weather approaching, I doubt I'd get much done here anyway. Spring has definitely sprung and I am eager to end this semester and bust a move on some wedding projects I have been putting off. Today the goal is to finish the save the dates for my cousins and get them in the mail.
Wish me luck.
On the surface, that project may seem relatively undaunting. However it requires a trip to Staples which requires me to shower, which requires me to work out first ....so you can see how this is all going to go down today, can't you?
The good news is, I've already walked my 4 plus miles this morning, so I suppose if I moved the Total Gym and Bose Ball workout to later it wouldn't kill me. The problem is that if I wait - I know it won't get done. I'm getting comfortable with getting up to tackle the morning walks without bitching up a storm and throwing a hissy fit (it's only taken me about 6 weeks to feel this way - poor, poor Josh) but the other work outs have not become as "habit-y" as the walks, and I can sort of take them or leave them, depending on my mood. More often than not, I choose to leave them. And that's when I see Josh working out....and then I feel horribly guilty.....so then I (begrudgingly) work out. That man is evil......and, let's face it, one smart cookie. He knows the guilt thing is his secret weapon and he is not afraid to use it. This is why I sometimes hide up in my office on days when he's home. :-) Hear no Evil Workout...See No Evil Workout.... Do No Evil Workout. Ya dig?
The weird thing is I honestly have barely worked out the last 3 days but I am down to 211.75 today.....so the scale keeps moving down which means I have apparently awoken the sluggish beast, aka, my metabolism and now have it working, even if I'm not.
It's a tough pill to swallow (and a hell of a lot less tasty that chocolate cake), but I'm trying to wrap my head around the idea that exercise is really good for me and that once I get into it, it will become second nature. I can't discount the fact I am sticking to this and am seeing my hard work pay off. It makes me proud, and yes, it helps keep me on track.
Now if only I could say the same of my home work......
