Oh, one more thing:
I love it. You know I can't logoff without reading my favorite blogs. Kind of like a fortune cookies, my motivational/inspirational site I always read had this to say today about, what else, ENTHUSIASM!!!: Very fitting:
Enthusiasm costs you absolutely nothing and requires no special skills. It is yours the moment you choose to embrace it.
When you do, your world changes. The problems turn into opportunities and the challenges become fields upon which you can create new value.
Enthusiasm infuses you with a heightened sense of purpose. Enthusiasm provides you with a beneficial immunity against any setbacks that may come.
Enthusiasm is contagious and it draws other people to you. Because when you're wrapped up in enthusiasm, it feels great.
Somewhere inside you there is an authentic sense of enthusiasm, eager to come to life. Let it out and let it show.
Allow enthusiasm to infect your attitude, and spread it to those around you. Delight in the feeling as it pushes you forward
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BYE BYE!!!

Greatness
Last night I couldn't sleep. This time it wasn't because I couldn't get my routine music out of my head. I literally couldn't stop smiling and thinking about 2 of my most recent "happiest" days of my life. I think I heard or read something during the day about how important it is to be able to visualize something good or happy in times of stress or discord.
ANYWAY, the two things I couldn't get out of my head, that made me smile ear to ear were: (Well. I have many MANY things that make me smile, but here's what I kept replaying last night:)
**When my hubby proposed Aug. 15th 2007. I could seriously replay that event in my head all day. That was such an amazing afternoon. A feeling like the world literally stopped for a minute, or maybe that was just my heart stopping for a brief minute... :) either way, a pretty indescribable feeling & fun to remember
**The other thing I couldn't stop thinking about was how FUN and exciting it was when I was able to surprise my family with a trip home to Kansas last December. Talk about an awesome day: I called my bro-in-law from Denver asking to be picked up in KC, then I got to surprise my sister, which was G.R.E.A.T and then I got to surprise my Parents, which was soooo fun, too!!!!!!!!!
Needless to say, I slept really well (once my mind turned off) but I know I went to bed with perma-grim :) :) :)
So-I hope you all have happy moments that you can easily bring to the forefront of your thinking & for even a few minutes, make everything else seem petty.
I'm soooooo pumped I get to see my best friend today. I took a nap at work before I went home. I need to clean up a little and if I tried to rest at home, it wouldn't happen.......
JUST A FEW MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GETTING CLOSE!!!!!!!!!!
I was up this morning at 5am for one HOUR of cardio on the elliptical. Check!!
I'm tired, but I'm going to take a nap here pretty soon. (Yep, almost 10am and I'm due for a nap!)
I'm heading to pick up my pretty sequinced top that I'm wearing for my routine. Sooo excited!!!
I have to lift around noon, then work until 7pm, then finish up with 45 min. of incline walking. Sa-weet.
Ohh, I have to go pick up a few groceries, too.....shocker. Got my dry-out diet. Dang, lots of Tuna & asparagas. I mean A L.O.T. I better look GOOOOOOOOOD on Sat.! :) :) :)
Thank you all for your nice comments about my routine. That was the first "real" run-thru, making sure everything transitioned nicely. Now that I know it does, I can really put some FLAVA in it! :) :) Just wait........
Thanks again for all the support. ***I love it, my Mimi & Papa in Arizona, they always send me the nicest emails about how they love reading my blog, but she has to preface every email with something along the lines of how crazy or nuts it is..... :) :) :) ***
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope everyone is well~
