Kicked my TRASH

The perk of joining a gym? You get a personal trainer for a month. The drawback of joining a gym? You get a personal trainer for a month! And if you are 4 minutes late for your first appointment he'll say, "little miss, you're gonna get your trash kicked"!

and guess what? It was garbage day.

***********************************

On the plane ride home (more on that another time) I contemplated my life. Mainly accountability...over the past 6 months I have employed others to keep me accountable for my own responsibilities. Seriously.
  • house cleaner: every other week (keeps me on track w/ putting things away, doing laundry, and picking up after the kids and myselft)
  • organizer: every other week (keeps me on track w/ eliminating clutter, keeping my house in order and tidy)
  • trainer: to kick my ass and tone my muscles
  • exercising: membership at The Gym so I can be active and healthy

So let me get this straight:

In order to have a home that is clean and organized and a body that is tone and healthy I have to PAY.OTHER.PEOPLE?? Somehow my accountability in this life is seriously codependent!

*and yet I can't do it on my own- I'll always need a mentor (or a muse)!

  5. Hmmmm...this is the best post! Yep, that's just how life is. Sometimes motivation comes from paying other people to motivate you. I should know I've had a trainer for like 2 years. Sort of sad...I know.
