Every Good Thing

"I...tend to be...busier than I should be
I...tend to think...that time is going to wait for me
Sometimes I forget...and take for granted
That it's a beautiful life we live
I don't want to miss...the moments like this
This is a beautiful life You give"

Still Sweating It Out

Today was one of those days where I didn’t know exactly what I’d be up to for the day. Ultimately I think I did pretty well as I kept up on my squats & wall sit (although my wall sit ended up in two fairly close together increments – I may have paused for five seconds 2/3 way through even though I didn’t want to). & after spending time on the elliptical I spent most of the rest of the day feeling the good work in my muscles.

I showered shortly after finishing on the elliptical & found myself once again wiping sweat from all over myself while I combed my hair post-shower. Then, an hour later, as we prepared our dinner together I actually went & got the fresh-from-the-laundry washcloth that I’d been using to wipe up sweat off myself in these circumstances & did just that. I did rain today. We had a storm. I didn’t pour; it was a strong rain where thunder & lightning were involved. Okay, actually, I don’t know that lightning was involved; however, I know for a fact that thunder was because it was so close & vibrant that I rattled us. I felt my body shake. My DH was at the grocery store & said that he, along with a bunch of people around him, all looked at one another in a similar, “Oh my!” By the time we were making our dinner, the storm had cleared up.

I finished up our loose laundry today, too. I ended up washing about four or five t-shirts that I keep around for the simple task of moping sweat from myself while I hang out on the elliptical. I think I damped an entire one just today.
