Day 48, Rest

                Saturday’s really screw me up. In the Insanity program your 7th day is supposed to be your rest day… but that never seems to work out for me. I’m either working half a day at work or busy catching up on all the things I let go during the week. Either way it shakes out I never seem to be able to actually get my workout done in the morning. By the evening I’m just too wiped out to even pretend to try and get my tennis shoes on.

                So Saturday is my new rest day and I didn’t get to do one dang restful thing. There was a nice highlight to the day though:my brother and I arranged for a backyard camping trip for the little monster. We set up a couple tents, got a fire going in the fire pit and had a wonderful evening of smores and bug spray. The little monster was so excited he couldn’t contain himself and ran around in the grass the whole time with a huge grin. At night he had his little flashlight and shone it all over the roof of our tent. Just seeing the joy on his face the entire evening lit my heart up with an inner light. I know he won’t remember this when he gets older but I certainly will.
