was a great day!
I worked super hard from 9:00am - 8:00pm.
There were so many successes within the rough day.
9:00 am- I made 10 phone calls soliciting our community garden.....but I landed a spot at a RETIREMENT HOME!!! how cute is that? i am much more excited about it now.
1:00 - I ate way too much at the 2 parties during work hours, but...... i got free ice cream.
5:00 - I had to lead a work wellness walk in the 100 degree weather, but.... I pushed a participant to walk 2 miles that he had NEVER walked before!
6:00 - I had to host ZUMBA class but..... got to celebrate with a participant who lost her first 10 pounds since starting our program!
7:00 - I had to work late but....I met 15 abused women who were so excited to learn about nutrition and kept me an extra 30 minutes asking questions :)
Sometimes its worth it to go the extra mile. Life is much better when we look for the positives, huh?
p.s Neil has poision ivy or oak again :(
