the gym.

today was the first day at the gym. lifetime fitness. scott bought a family package. still not so sure how to feel about that.
for the 10 minute drive i heard "are we there yet" about 15 times. typical. check-in went well. we all had our pictures taken. face shots. mary snuggled her face in her coat. expected. proceded to the child care area. jax fell once. all 3 coats, hats and mittens off and properly stowed away. gave my shorties kisses and walked out the door. cried for 3 minutes. me not the kids. scott obviously had no idea how i felt leaving the kids at a daycare facility for the first time. ever. horrible. went to my locker room to change shoes and lock up my coat and gym bag. couldnt figure out the key portion of the locker. didnt feel it was appropriate to ask the naked chick next to me for help. akward. came out of the locker room where scott rolled his eyes at me and told me how. nice. mind you im still all teary-eyed form dropping off kids. went back in locker room. locked door. followed scott upstairs. jumped on the first treadmill that was open. mind you i have no idea how to operate the thing. pushed a bunch of buttons in haste. walked for 35 minutes. 1.50 miles. all while listening to snoop dogg, dr. dre, green day, and rage against the machine. got in a good mood. gave myself a tour of the gym while scott finished up his 4 mile jog. show off. peeked in on the munchkins. all were good. went back into the locker room for a shower. showered. nobody banged on the curtain yelling "mom! let me in!" changed into clean clothes. met scott back in the daycare where charleigh could have cared less that i came back. did i mention she was super freaked before hand? well she was. got big kisses from jax and meems. felt good to be missed. changed bobers diaper. loaded them up with coats, hats and mittens. jax fell down on the way out. twice. all fell asleep in the car on the way home.
repeat tomorrow. and then everyday until im super hawt. or i quit.
