My dear friend Tina over at Playing in the Park threw down a challenge: To blog every day in September to jump start her blog writing. At first I was all like girl, you be craaaazy! I immediately said no to the challenge. I decided that if I was going to spend any sort of alone time each day, it HAS to be exercising and being in the Word. I have to prioritize both my physical health (I am in that post-baby time where it is make it or break it with the extra pounds) and there ain't no use doing anything else if my eyes aren't set on the Lord each day.
But (there is always a but) then we have been brainstorming on how to move forward with this little space in the blog-o-sphere. So I let the idea simmer for a bit. I still haven't completely landed on what the blog will come to be, but I thought what the heck, I will give this a whirl.
SO the end result: Heath (at his prompting!) and I will be exercising each day in September. Like getting out of bed at a crazy early time. Together. To work out. And then I am going to blog about it or about what is on my mind while exercising. I tend to do A LOT of thinking while exercising these days. I will also share with you what God is revealing through my time with Him.
September, I think you and I are going to be buds. So much to look forward to...
Oh and in case you are wondering. Yes, the alarm went off today and yes we (I reluctantly) got up to do the 30 Day Shred. As soon as Jillian Michaels started talking Heath yelled Bring it Jillian, let's burn this fat. It was 6:13. Can you imagine the look I gave him? I did not think about anything during this workout except maybe about how much I wished I was still in bed...
Is anybody else excited for fall weather? I sure am! Until...tomorrow...I can't believe I am doing this everyday!

YAY! Love your thoughts on this month and this challenge. Excited to see what it brings!
You have a busy month lined up for sure, cant wait to hear what comes to mind, and love your priorities :)
Jillian will kick your butt however I think it is way worth it! She has helped me lose a total of 40lbs...10 which have returned but I hope to continue to shed them for good!
