Every morning - I go through the normal morning procedures at a pretty slow pace - especially this summer -  life has been very chill. So, getting up late really has been quite a luxury. I don't really have to get in the car and go to the gym - I have my basement. This is what it looks like in the morning. 

My kids know where I will be - down in the basement - trying to "get my workout" done. Whether it be Tony Horton and the P90X DVD's, Chalene Johnson and her new PIYO DVD, Sagi Kalev and his Body Beast weight lifting program - I can pick and choose what will be done. Something will be done. What I have noticed since I am getting on in my years  - is that it has been a lot harder to be able to get rid of the unwanted "this or that." Not to mention - the many illnesses that I know linger around. But since doing the many Beachbody programs as well as the Body Beast program - when I set goals - I have a new mindset. And I begin to enjoy the journey.

Whatever your morning routine is - its always a good one - when you have something to look forward to. I am grateful for the little things that make us happy - especially in the morning.
