WORSHIP SONG:
Song to the King (cover) - Natalie Grant
5 GRATITUDES (Thank you, Heavenly Papa!):
- Thank you God I got all my subcon work done by 8:15 pm.
- Thank you God our son got the beads he needed for his Atom project.
- Thank you God for A/C.
- Thank you God for all the amazing people You have place in our life.
- Thank you God for all my senses that allow me to enjoy life.
- Parenting is definitely not easy. At each stage so far, we face different challenges. Our oldest is really challenged to control her mouth. I know I've had issues in my own life with that, so she probably gets some of that from her and her biological dad. Very glad my husband and I are together on parenting, so the kids can't really pull anything over on us. My husband is very consistent in discipline and I see that he kids respect that much more than my inconsistencies, though, I am learning and becoming more consistent.
Our son greatly adores my husband and has pretty much called him dad since we got married. I can see my husband changing, learning and adjusting to parenting. He gets less frustrated now and I am very glad we both demand respect from our kids and will not put up with disrespectfulness. Our son readily accepts this, but our daughter challenges this, but less now than she did before.
She is learning to be more aware and purposeful, which is good, rather than living haphazardly. We all are. Grateful for God bringing my husband to our lives. I needed him and our children need him. And our husband needs us, too. It's not to say we don't have insane and hard times, but anything worthwhile, expect that it won't be easy. Thank you, God! - The past week or so, I'm finding that doing EFT (aka tapping) while on my drive home after taking the kids to school is a good time. I just do it on things that pop into my head or are bothering me. I do know that it is doing something because I notice when I do do the EFT, it seems the challenges in those areas are reduced and/or eliminated. Now, some things will take much more work, but if I can get rid of certain aspects, maybe it will open the door to releasing other things that are keeping me from being whom God intends for me to be.
The things I tapped on today I'll probably have more to tap on in these areas, but maybe I got rid of certain things and then other things God will reveal that need to be tossed out, then I''ll tap on those things. Everything can't be eliminated at once, but I think certain pieces or chunks can be so I can have greater freedom in life to live, instead of being bound up by things I allow myself to be limited by.
Today when my husband was snacking, I did not feel compelled to eat anything or join him, which really is surprising. So, I'm going to be doing more EFT in the morning, even if it's not for a very long time. - Our daughter found an appropriate dress for graduation, so that's one less thing we have to buy.

Notes: My husband woke me in the middle of the night and hence, I didn't get enough sleep and I also went to bed about 45 min. later than I wanted to because I was working to get back on track with my subcon work. I was challenged to do the jumping jacks during warm up and the first 2 exercises were killers for me as your legs are some of the biggest muscles in your body.
I haven't been doing the ACV, probiotics and krill capsules before my workout this week due to sheer lazinesss, but I do take those after the workout and before my smoothie. It's ideal to take them at least 30 minute before you eat or consume anything, even a smoothie.
I felt tired, but not as tired as I did on Tuesday and I am grateful this was just a bodyweight workout. Had I needed to use kettlebells, it would have not been good. Anyway, I need to focus on getting to bed earlier and to ask my husband not to wake me up tonight.
Forgot that the 2nd round of this workout was to cut all the reps in half, which I did not do for the first exercise. All the others, I did, so I actually did more than Zuzka wanted us to do. Yay for me. This really is a good workout and if I'd had enough sleep, I really would have loved this workout more because I do love squats, lunges and burpees, which there are plenty in this workout.
Forward & Backward Lunge
