After my great day yesterday something had to happen right?? Today my Mom locked her and my youngest out of the house in the garage. She went around the house to find that the front door was surprisingly unlocked. She ran back to get my youngest out of the garage and Loki made a run for it. I was on the phone for this whole process and was already dealing with some school issues with my oldest, I headed back home as soon as I could while my Mom tried to keep an eye on Loki. Chasing after him only makes him run further and faster. While keeping her eye on the dog and not where she was going she fell off of our sidewalk and broke her foot. Isn't that just wonderful? I feel awful for my Mom. And on top of that it may have a effect on our baby sitting situation which is not good for our job situations. Today was spent dealing with school issues, taking my Mom to and from the Dr and back to her house and then back to school to get kids. With my new work schedule I have the next two days off and I was hoping to use them to prep and meal plan to start the cleanse on Thursday. But as always something comes up, EVERY TIME! I understand why people are so attracted to Medifast, Jenny Craig and Nutrisystems with their prepackaged food. You don't have to think or plan you just grab and eat.
So much of my life is spent wishing: wishing I was able to quit my job, wishing I was in better shape, wishing I was healthy, wishing I could run more effortlessly. And the common thread between everything I wish for and why I don't have it is the time and effort they take. They all take hard work and consistency. Consistence/Dependable is one character trait I have always struggled with to the point that I know people may consider me a flake. I back out of what I said I was going to do so often. Part of it is my anxiety and the other part is laziness but when it comes down to the actual time to do something that was planned, I just don't wanna. I'd rather sit on my ass and do nothing. Nothing is easy, nothing is familiar, nothing feels safe. And if I really make an effort and something happens or comes up and take it as confirmation that I shouldn't have even tried, I should have stayed home, this was all a waste of my time.
People say if you can vision the results you want, your mind will start to make them happen. The key to that is keeping the vision realistic, fresh and very detailed. I am long over due to rewrite my Vision Statement. I wrote my last one in 2014 and it was powerful. I need to make a commitment to read it every morning and heck multiple times a day if it'd help me stay on track. I still have plenty of time to achieve health in 2016.
