Today, like most Sundays, are pretty busy due to church. I think I’ve got my schedule down now that I’ve done it a few weeks in a row. Early morning workout at 6 am, followed by breakfast and church at 9:45 am until Noon. Go home for lunch, a touch of family time, then tuck everyone in for their after lunch naps and I’m back to the gym for my 60 minute cardio workout. I get my Master Class video in, any reading I can do via audio book, listen to my Mindfulness tracks while driving or on breaks in between, etc. I almost always end up in a meaningful conversation at church with someone and today was no exception. After my afternoon cardio workout I’m back home for a few with the family before we are back to church for bible study and prayer night, then home for dinner, gratitude journal, and this blog post. That is getting my 6 for the Deliberate Discomfort Challenge, in a nutshell.
Morning workout went relatively well for Back Day. Hamstring Hell is up there on my least favorite exercises list, but I got through it! Wore me out a little extra due to not sleeping well from having coughing fits half the night from the allergies (I literally have yellow patches of pollen on my driveway!)
Afternoon cardio went really well, and pretty much had the gym to myself. Was able to clunk out 2.87 miles on the treadmill in 61 minutes. With my cough and allergies, it is not recommended that I go outside here in Whiteville when it is cook and humid out, so I ended up at the gym on the treadmill instead of elsewhere.
Church was great, lots of talk about keeping your life God centered instead of self-centered, and helping maintain the close intimate relationship with God so that you can know His will for you and follow through with what He wants from you. Bible study group also got some good spoilings by Kat and our oldest daughter, with some chocolate covered peanut butter balls. Then we went into prayer night and learned about Paul’s 2nd Mission trip back into where he was stoned and left for dead. How crazy is that? Very, but Paul did it anyways! Some Very Powerful Stuff!
