Finally - Friday has arrived! Even better, it's my rest day. Though, I will say I got in some unexpected cardio today:
Walking 3 blocks to and from parking lot (4 times total)
Walking 4 blocks to and from our company holiday meeting (2 8 blocks)
Walking up 10 flights of stairs to avoid stopping on every single floor on the elevator ride after meeting
So, active rest day ;-)
Today I almost told you all about the exercises I hate the most - you know, burpees. mountain climbers, pushups on the spin bike. But, that sounds kind of negative doesn't it? I then read a post by my friend Averie @ Loves Veggies and Yoga. Seeing the pictures, and hearing about something good that happened for her today made me rethink my negative post.
I also saw this quote today that helped change my focus "Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy." ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
For Fun Facts Friday, I want to share the things that make me smile - granted, this isn't an all-inclusive list, just a few things on the top of my head.
