Back in the Saddle

My first week back to work sucked. Sucked. I thought I was going to have to quit my job, but everything worked out, and I'm still there. I didn't do any exercising besides the first day and rushed home every single day to hang with my kiddo. I can totally see how people fall off the workout wagon after having children. Lucky me, I actually get to use an hour of my workday for exercise, so I really don't have any good excuse!

This week, my schedule sucked, but I did jump back into exercise.
