Late Cardio


I just did an hour on the treadmill while watching Grey's Anatomy. I haven't done late cardio for a couple of years but I LOVE it. I love being totally knackered, having my supps, a hot shower and then curl up in bed, deliciously snuggly and tired.
Unfortunately that lasted all of 10 minutes as the kids were fighting. It's still school holidays here until Wednesday next week so I just let them stay up a little later (and sometimes that's later than me).
So, just getting comfy again and more screams. This time my daughter was day dreaming while making a hot milo and put the mug with milo only and a metal spoon into the microwave.

There's sparks and smoke and my boy is totally freaking out telling me the house is on fire. I DON'T CARE. I WANT TO SLEEEEEP!!!
I chucked a complete Joan Crawford, told them they are totally responsible for my high cortisol levels, and therefore my fatness, and now they are both in bed sulking and probably emotionally scarred for life.
My comfy feeling's gone now....

Glad I don't have kids...I think it may have been the wire hangers that changed my whole entire view of motherhood! LOL!

No, I didn't want kids before I saw that movie anyway....however-to this day I refuse to allow wire hangers into my house-I think I really am a bit psycho...but then, aren't we all?.....yes it's red wine friday here-and yes-I've had a glass already-It's been a tuff week-LOL!
So, what were you saying?...hehehe

Sounds familiar!!! :)
I love you blaming the cortisol rise on them, therefore the weight, I'm gonna use that one too!

Frankie said...

ahahah...Raechelle I came out of that movie with one thought - NEVER USE WIRE HANGERS...I didn't know why...but I knew it was BAD. Wish it was red wine Friday for me but I'm saving myself for my late Nanna's birthday bash on Sunday.


Shar,

Yes, I like to bamboozle them with science and other stuff they can't understand - that way they can't answer back! They don't stand a chance really.

I think there's a movie I need to see....

Hope you're feeling better now, sounds way too traumatic!

Meanwhile, your late cardio sounds great. Actually the cardio itself doesn't, but after that....perfection!
