There are many situations in life that exercise and nutrition prepare you for. One of them is grocery shopping with 3 toddlers. There are decent, productive trips to the food store and then there are days like today where it becomes a real test of endurance! Mentally, emotionally and physically! I wish I had a hologram of Shaun T walking with me to the entrance of the store yelling, " Are you ready? Let's goooooo!" Then as I am racing, literally at a slow jog, throwing things in my cart, ripping open snacks before they are paid for (just so baby won't scream the whole time), shoving my kids along because they think every item is completely fascinating (seriously, q-tips? You are stopping to gawk at q-tips?), taking items back out of my cart because my kids are trying to be so helpful, trying not to lose my children in the sea of Christmas shoppers and ignoring the seemingly peaceful looks on people who blissfully remember, "those days." Did I mention my baby's snack only lasted 3 aisles? His older siblings decided they were needed a "snack" too. Then of course he screams anyway because he wants to eat everything I put in the cart behind him. So as this is all happening my Shaun T hologram should be saying to me,"Stay with me, I'm right here." And when we are all done? "THAT was baNANAS YO!" So since I got such a great workout in at the grocery store with my trusty Shaun T hologram, I only did about half of PiYo drench. Oh well, 'tis life....and I love my life.
PS- I know what y'all are thinking, but don't say it! Don't say, "Enjoy it, it goes fast!" I will climb through the computer and smack you!
