Pain is good, right? 1-25-11

Tuesday was a busy day. Getting the kids to school, one stayed home because he was sick, and scouts. I'm the committee chair for our cub scout pack, so once a month we have our pack mtg. It usually stresses me out and I feel like I'm going crazy. I had to make the treat for the mtg, go to the scout office to get badges and pins and then to the store for dinner.
After school was just crazy. I had my kids help me make popcorn balls for our treat at scouts then had to pick up child 2 at school. Got home and it was chaos from there. Homework, finishing treats, basketball registration, getting supplies ready for mtg, and then I ran out of time to make dinner. Dropped child 1 off at friends house for bball practice, then I was off with the rest of the kids for scouts. I was on the edge now. So much to do and 5 kids to take care of. Sometimes I'm really stretched thin!
The mtg went great. :) All the boys and their families had a great time and all of my leaders were there to help me out. My husband even came to help. We got home around 8 and dinner was not made, so I had about 30 min to get it ready before I had spinning. I made a stir fry, kissed the hubby and I was off.
Now I was already pretty tired, but it was time to hit the spinning hard. We did a incline workout today and I thought I was going to pass out! Holy smokes it was hard. Some of the workout we did some standing up and I have not mastered the art of doing that. I'm extremely uncomfortable, but I gave it a go and that really got my legs burning. Throughout the workout we had different levels of intensity and by the end it was at a 10. This was so hard, but I pushed through and finished hard. Got off my bike after the cool down, legs wobbly and all and headed home to my little monkeys. I ate dinner, which was yummy, and barely made it up the stairs because my legs were so tired. Did a load of laundry, tucked the kids in bed, took a shower, and finally laid down to get some rest.
So why did I tell you the details of my day? Because I want y'all to understand that my days aren't easy, I'm actually busy. I have a household to run and responsibilities elsewhere. I want you ladies to know that even though you may be busy, you can always make the time to exercise. Have fun, you deserve it!
