Open For Life has ruined my life.

That's sort of a small joke we have going on in our office. The church is almost done building a brand new, beautiful addition to their campus. A new family center. This place is amazing. I could sit here and describe it to you, but it's better seen in person. On September 7th , you will have that opportunity. That's the opening day for this new facility. Now, why do we say it has ruined our life? Well, not literally. It's just a joke, cause the CC team has been busting a little bit of tail to get a lot of the projects that go with this grand opening done. We've stayed till 11pm one night last week, and it seems as if these next few days left, it will be more late nighters. So that's where the joke stems from. On the plus side, I work with some awesome people, so it's not like it's torture. Although, I would rather be at home with my wife, then to be working late. I mean, I really like my job a lot, but there's a limit. I love being at home and resting as well. Well, I'm crossing my fingers that we won't have to stay late everyday, especially Friday. I mean, who wants to stay that late at work on a Friday?

Not a good start....

So today, I was supposed to kick off working out again. I missed all of last week due to a busy work schedule and a lot of personal events happening. Not good. Especially since the eating didn't stop for a week as well. So, today I get home and I'm a little tired and I'm getting undressed from my work clothes (Try not to get a mental picture of that. Not a pretty picture.) and I'm sitting on my bed thinking, "Man, I really don't feel like running outside right now". So I come in to the living room and I ask my wife, Erin, if she will be working out today. She responds, "no". And I'm like, "Why not?". She's usually the good one about these things. So she responds, "Cause I don't feel like it." Wow, she became that brief moment's hero. So, I decided that I wouldn't go outside. I didn't second guess it then, but now I'm thinking about it. I'm not going to be able to lose the weight that I want to, if I keep having days like this. Oh well. Maybe I'll do a few crunches or something. Just to take a bit of the guilt away. This lazy kid is signing out. God bless.
