I'm going to do it!

Friday - no exercise this morning. I'll be glad when Joseph is back to take carpool and I get my mornings back. Tonight I was going to try and make it up, but didn't - but we did have date night at the temple, that's a big WIN! yay
Saturday - nothing again, but had a good day working and cleaning house with the kids, I think we're now back on track after the Christmas break, yay
