surviving vs. thriving

Ever have one of those weeks where your list of things to do is just insurmountable? A week where your list quickly turns into just one thing, surviving? Ever feel like your burning your candle from both ends and just cant get anything completed?
That is my week in a nutshell. It shocked me this morning to realise its already Thursday. My plan this week was to do deep cleaning, room to room style. On top, of course, of my normal routine. I planned to grocery shop, cook, do laundry, preschool with my little one, finish my ball gown and reserve hotels for our move.
You want to know what really happened? I didnt do any of the deep cleaning, I hope (and I stress hope) to get groceries today. Only half the laundry is clean and that is still sitting on my couch screaming at me to fold and put it away. I didnt get any school work done, poor Rosie has been following me from room to room, lol. She's as lost as I am. I havent finished my ball gown (only gotten the vine sewn down, I still have flowers, leaves and jewels to add to it) and no reservations have been made. sigh.. its been a week.
I havent been sitting on my butt watching TV though, Im busy all day long and fall into bed at the end of each day. So what DO I do with my time??? You got me, I have no idea. The house is a disaster, there is little to no food in the house, and all the projects are still... unfinished.
I have to say though, that I feel great. I am sure this week I will loose more than the single pound of the past two weeks. I also managed to sneak in a workout session on monday.. yes my goal this week was to work out monday, wednesday and friday for 30 minutes each time.. ya so far Im behind, lol. I pulled out my Wii fitness plus. I love that game program, its like goofing off with the perk of burning calories! But now I have to say, I am sore.. not the "I kicked my own butt" kind, but my arms are sore and my butt is tired, lol.. (never thought I would claim that). I really wanted to work out yesterday while the girls slept, but alas.. bill paying and ordering things we needed took precedence. I will reattempt working out today. But today I really want to scrub the bathrooms, uggghhhh, a stay at home mom's work is never done!
I guess my point is that I am thriving with TSFL and just surviving with the rest of my life. But one of the big reasons I love this program is that I know that as I journey down this road to better health, the other stresses in my life will become easier to conquer and I will be thriving in every aspect of my life!! I cant wait.
