Some days it’s like I have to bribe myself to get off my butt and onto my bike. Other days I’m chomping at the bit to go. Today was one of the bribe myself days.

I told myself that I will play games all day if I just get off the puter and go. I’m not touching a lick of housework save finishing the laundry before my mom gets here tomorrow. (Cooking dinner doesn’t count btw, nor doing the dishes after dinner.) So off my ass I got and placed it firmly on my bike seat.

At first I was still stressed over money, Christmas to do’s and family crap. But by mile 5 I was feeling great. The sun was shining, kids all over the neighborhood were playing in their yards, birds flying all over and NOT pooping on me. I thought about how my hubby loves me, my son and every thing about him and how at least for all we’re not rich, we DO have $50 to our name. Our bills are paid, I have Christmas presents in the closet to wrap and health coverage for my son. I always try to remind myself that there are some people who have it worse off.

Merry Christmas folks!
