Battle Axe Shoes
Now I would in no way refer to myself as a battle axe - matter of fact I would probably pop a man in his mouth should he dare to. But today was one of those days where I felt like I was wielding a weapon all day long.
This morning started off with nobody wanting to get out of bed - including me. But we had to get up - places to go, people to see. Left the house late which started my downward spiral on my morning mood. Got the kids off to their respective destinations and it was off to work I went. Weapon of choice - the bull horn.
Work - was well...let's just not go there. We will leave it at that my weapon of choice was truly the battle axe at this point and I am sure that my co-workers could feel my wrath. My mood quickly went from an absolute snap into a slim mode to a delusional laughter - otherwise it would have most definitely been the straight jacket for me.
Tonight. Well tonight was my time at my happy place. Kids to make me laugh. Friends to make me smile. My second kickboxing class since I have returned to training (well, technically my first with sparring since we didn't spar last week). After a 7 month forced break from training - my nerves were definitely in high gear when sparring rolled around. Cardio definitely needs work, need to relax and stay light on my feet again and throw more kicks - but it felt good to be back to a 'regular' class. My weapon of choice this time being my determination to get back to where I was last summer.
Today was definitely a roller coaster of a day - but it ended just the way I needed it to - with a smile on my face, happiness in my heart and a relaxed mind.
