To Tell the Truth: Distractions

I can't even tell you how difficult it is to get through my workouts lately. It seems like every day, I get interrupted at least 3 times. My phone rings, my baby wakes up and needs to be fed, my kids need me...it happens so often that I start getting irritated. By the last 10 minutes I usually am threatening the kids to go in the other room and play OR ELSE.

*Sigh*

Part of the problem is that my workouts now take an hour to get through instead of the 30 minutes we've grown accustomed to. And that is a REALLY long workout.

But I tell myself that all I can do is my best. I'm a mother of five and that means there is bound to be a lot of distractions, no matter WHEN I workout. I swear I could try to exercise at 2:30 a.m. and my baby would sense it and decide to wake up screaming, my phone would ring with a wrong number caller and my cat would decide to go in heat and would yowl so loudly she'd wake the entire household.

I have resigned myself to try and roll with the punches.
