Stay my ass indoors was a success. I always am running errands, doing a project, SOMETHING. But today was the only thing on my to do list.

Today's included:

Am I the only one that creates an unrealistic to-do list when their child takes a nap?

🧺Laundry
🧽Deep cleaning the bathroom
🍲Meal prepping
📺Watching tv

Y'all my list was ridiculous today when Aiya finally took her nap. But I decided that to press play and workout with zero interuptions and it was great.

Mamas, the housework will always be there. Take advantage of the quiet time (it's fleeting) and do something that will bring you joy.

There is so much that I have learned on this fitness journey.

*The importance of having support
*The power of discipline
*Making myself a priority
*Pouring into yourself through person development
* Understanding food triggers
*Getting introduced to so many new recipes
*Making progress NOT perfection the goal
*Realizing that I am stronger (both physically and mentally) than I thought

Oooh the Universe was testing me today and almost won.

Last night I committed to working out in the mornings. I even went to bed early. Don't you know:

😴 Aiya had a hard time sleeping. When I finally got her to bed my ass was WIDE AWAKE.

💤 Two hours later I was finally able to get to sleep but then Obie became restless and BAM I'm awake again.

⏰I wake up but Laila comes into my room for Mommy Laila time. I drop everything because I cherish these one on one moments with her. Once we are done, Aiya wakes up and needs me again.

Note to self, I must borrow Obie's invisible cloak😒

Before you know it work and school happened. But I got it in. I rescheduled instead of cancelled. 25 minutes of non-stop moving and my workout was done and I feel amazing.

"An excuse is simply a challenge that you've decided has power over you. If you're serious about changing your life, you'll find a way past all your obstacles" - Jen Sincero

When I started on this health and fitness journey, I quickly realized that it is so much more than just working out. It's nutrition, it's growing through your BS, it's understanding that YOU are important and YOU deserve to be a priority so you be the best version of yourself in all areas.

With all the chaos of last year I slacked on my personal development. Like many I was on straight survival mode. I am slowly finding my rhythm back into it, making it part of my routine and it's feels good.

What book are you reading? What are you listening?

This week I have been more intentional with our bedtime reading with Aiya.

In addition to Rosa Parks and Harriet Tubman we learned about Ella Fitzgerald. I went on YouTube and found some of her music for us to listen to. Turns out Miss Aiya is a jazz fan.

It made me smile and remember all the Saturday mornings my brother would wake me up blasting jazz music when we were little.

She danced, wanted to listen to more. We even listened to Louis Armstrong. My girl has great taste and an old soul.

She was so excited that we called my brother and sister-in-law to share her new discovery.

I completely recommend these books. They are well written, extremely engaging and we love the illustrations.

Did you ever look at the clock, see that it's 5 pm and wonder how you could squeeze another 24 hours into your day?

My to do list seemed to expand each time I completed a task. Like WTF? So you know what I did? I reapolsterd our dining room chairs.

We bought our dining room set for $100 bucks from Walmart when we first moved and the chairs are all stained and broken. Obie wanted to throw them out and I obviously didn't.

So $20 for materials I was able to fix two chairs, will fix the other two tomorrow because WE KEEPIN THEM NOW and all is right with the world.😊

One of the fun and distracting things about declutter is coming across old photos and memories that you completely forgot about.

The first picture is of Obie and I went on a date to a haunted house pre-Aiya. The second picture is when we were babies. We had just started dating and he came to my mom's house in Virginia for Thanksgiving.

Fun fact: His bus ride back home to the LES took 12 hours. Things you do for love and good food 🥰🤣
