June Jumpstart!: Is a relaxing holiday a myth

Is a relaxing holiday a myth

We have had a rotating door of guests and have more on the way and I am feeling good but really busy. I love seeing family and being in my own home for Christmas, but wow it is more work than I thought it was. I feel like I should count the running I do all day, and the stair climbing as my work out! Whew. I am thankful for my stairs though they so keep me thinking about working out. It has been a lot easier to climb them all day long now that I have lost 40 lbs!! Wooo whooo! My kids are noticing that I have more energy and can carry them around.

I don't know anything about a relaxing holiday! But I do know about lots of cousin chaos and good times accompanied by herculean efforts.

Think of all those extra calories you burn busting it up those stairs several times a day-Awesome!

Congrats on the success resulting from all your hard work. I'm glad your kids are noticing the benefit as well.
