Getting up when it seems impossible...

Today was one of those days when my eyes felt crusted shut. I heard Roofus and Olive whining outside of the gate, begging for their morning attention, and I wondered if perhaps, I should just dive back into bed.
But, alas, I arose and brushed, washed, ate etc. I knew I needed to jump in the car and hit the gym, although the couch was calling to me.
Once I made it to the car, I knew that I had made the right decision. With my tunes playing, and the sun beaming into my car, I felt the awakening sensation that comes with knowing you are going to have a great day.
The gym was wonderful, a great combination of resistance and cardiovascular training that wore me right out.I love feeling myself being pushed to the limit and knowing that I can make it. I get this rush when I am running on the treadmill, faster and faster, sweat dripping down my bright red face,and suddenly I am smiling, even though I can barely breathe.(The poor people around me probably think that I am about to keel over.)If I can conquer the gym, I can conquer anything that this day throws at me, with the Lord on my side of course. Otherwise, I couldn't so anything.
Now I need to pull some energy together so I have something to give to my client later today! :)
I am so glad that I didn't go back to bed.
