Spring has Sprung?

Its freezing...and its the first day of Spring here in the new "Old South".
The only way I can tell its Spring so far is I'm sneezing a lot and my eyes wont stop watering. Could be the lovely polluted Atlanta air, or could be that there are little flowers and plants blooming all over the place.
Tomorrow its supposed to get up to 71 Degrees Mmmmm patio weather!

I'm feeling frisky and happy today.
I went home yesterday and worked out, even using my weights for the first time in a long while. I also got up this morning and did it again. Well not the weights, just the treadmill.
I plan to go home and do it yet again after work.

Here's what Id like my schedule to be:

Monday off
Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday; Treadmill Am & Pm with additional weight work in the PM.
Friday Treadmill Am
Saturday & Sunday; treadmill once with additional weight work at least one of the 2 days.

That's giving me 3 days of treadmill once a day, 3 days of treadmill 2 times a day, and 4 days of weight work.

I bet if I can MAKE myself stick to this schedule I'll start dropping weight in 2 weeks.

One thing I am going to have to do it slow down on the weekend partying. The week days I really have finally settled in to a routine where no drinking or going out is fine, and welcome in fact.
The past few weekends, however, have been one day after another of plans and going out or having people over.
While I am thankful for all the activity and fun and friends....and boys ;) I think I need to cut it back to one night in at least.
Sundays I'm usually in, but the past 2 weeks I haven't been and that's been killing me Monday mornings.
Actually, I already have plans this whole weekend too! UGH!
Sometimes I just need alone ME time where I can decompress and chill. You would think week days being alone would do it, but it really doesn't. Not for me.
I really enjoy having one weekend night where I can sit back with a nice bottle ( or 2 ) of wine, a couple of good movies and just me.
I don't even like to talk on the phone on those nights.

As for the new routine, God help me I really want this. Its so funny to me too, because as Ive said I don't know HOW many times, working out like this makes me feel GREAT. So what is it that drags me away from what so obviously makes me feel GREAT?
I don't know.
i do know I want too many things in life that I'm just not going to get until I get this under control. Weight is life.

So tonight will be my first 2-a-day. Will I do it? We'll see. looking back on this blog I see many many days that Ive set goals for myself that I have yet to reach.

Inspiration. Where are you?
