This has been a tough month - March usually is with my work - month end, balancing budgets, etc. I feel like I've gotten away from my personal goals to pour myself into "the routine". The snowy, icy, cold weather is a bit of a factor too. I was out for a walk last week with my 3 1/2 yr old grandson. We'd been to the park to play on the structures and swing (all in deep snow!). We made the best of it - he had a blast. He couldn't slide down all the way since 1/2 the slide was covered in a blanket of white. As we were walking home again, I commented to him "I can't wait for all this snow to be gone" - and he answered "Amma, I love the snow". That was my reality check. I had to answer him that he was right, and I had a flash memory of how I complain about our "too hot" summer days. From the mouths of babes - that little man is constantly teaching me.
I will forge onwards - treat my body well with nutrition - we are what we eat. Keep trying. I got on the scale this morning since I hadn't done a weigh-in for some time and was astonished to see a slight decrease. I will take that as a positive and keep going forward knowing that spring is around the corner and bike-riding in the horizon. Happiness and Love to all.
