Because if I don't the kids will drive me insane! For weeks now I have had a routine where I pick the kids up from school and we go to the gym. It works out nicely because I get a couple of hours to myself to work out, listen to my ipod and read the latest book I have grabbed, and the kids get to run around and get rid of some energy. Especially Josh who has just woken up from a nap and is ready to go! Yesterday I felt a bit blah and decided that I didn't want to go to the gym. Between visiting my family and visiting DH's family we were gone all weekend and all I wanted to do yesterday was stay home. The kids were so bored and had way too much energy for our little 1000 square foot apartment. It became a mess in here very quickly and everyone got on their neighbors last nerve. I am leaving here in a few minutes to pick up the kids and go to the gym. Definitely not missing out on it another day!
