In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Getting With the Program

Filed under: General — Rachel at 11:51 am on Thursday, September 15, 2005

What program? My new super-de-duper scheduled program. As I’ve mentioned countless times in this blog, I suffer from an acute lack of discipline, organization, and motivation. I’m trying to remedy that, and, to help me along, I’ve made out a day by day schedule. If followed as intended, my house should be generally clean, my kids generally presentable, and my sad, sad body exercised. So far, so good. I started today, and I’m right on schedule. I actually started my new diet two days ago, and have already dropped one pound. So, yay for that. Baby steps, right? I worked out this morning, and, man, am I out of shape. I did 20 minutes on the elliptical machine, 100 crunches, and 20 push-ups, and you would think that I ran a ten mile marathon by the way my legs feel right now. But, anyway, that’s what I’ve been working on the past couple of days. I feel good about it. I hope I can make the changes last.
In other news, Kyra has a doctor’s appointment in a little while, and Elijah is getting shots. So, say a little prayer for my little man, if you are so inclined. He really doesn’t like getting shots. Who does, right? Kyra is just going for a check-up.
So, that’s my day. How is yours going?

Oh, I hated the days when my children got their shots. I gave them a dose of tylenol before to lesson the pain a little, but I think it’s just as hard on mom as it is on poor child. We always snuggled a long time after.
