Happy Memorial Day…

By MizFit | May 25, 2009

for those of us in the USA (and seriously.  wasn’t it JUST Labor Day?! Where is the time going?).

As a result I’m pushing the Toddler off on the Ren Man and relaxing and there’s no post today.

If you want a MizFit-fix feel free to swing by here and check out my workout videos.

The grouping is targeted toward work-at-home moms (insert NONjoke here about how all moms work at home) & will serve as accompaniment for a fitness chapter Ive written for a book authored by Millionaire Moms creator, Joyce Bone.

If you haven’t yet entered to win swing by here & share your thoughts on What you’d do if you knew you could not fail.

Many, many of your comments struck a chord with me and, as a result, there will be a follow-up post coming soon entitled:

A Million & One Ways To Git Our Collective Selves Off Our Apprehensive Arses & Moving Toward At Least One Of Our Micro Or Mini Goals STAT Sans Fear Of Failing & With A Big Ass Mission Statement As A Road Map To Find Our Way.

(Can you even *believe* Ren Man though that title was too long?! I know. Me either.)

Lastly, before Im off to frolic in the name of exercise, I give you two pics from how I spent my saturday.

    No day off here even though I am in the USA.

    VERY COOL on the tattoo color.

    Is it sore?

    GOOOOOD MORNING! I swear even though Im working today since I work from home it is fanTIZtastic to have the Ren Man around to lend a toddler hand.

    Evan? Id love to say no—but the answer is yes :)

    I cant decide if it’s somewhat from lunging on saturday (my other quad is a little sore as well) but I think it’s mainly from the tattooing.

    notsomuch looking foward to the back of the leg :)

    Laurie? no more to tell yet not sure when the book is coming out (2009) but here’s the link to that:

    Question:
    I checked & the submission date for the magazine looks like it was 5.10.
    Is that right?
    Did I miss it?

    Happy Memorial Day Mizzy! Loving the tat - we have to Skype sometimes with your toddler and the 5 year old that runs my house - that would be a hoot@!

    Happy memorial day to you & enjoy your family time!!! My gym was open so got my weight workout in & got my usual Sunday long jog in yesterday so all is good. Now I need some sleep since my gym time is not something most people consider a time for working out!!!

    Love the tattoo coloring!!!!! Awesome!

    Really looking forward to the post on fear of failure since that is my biggest prob.. not the workouts.. can do those, it is all the other stuff!

    ENJOY. You deserve it!

    The tattoo looks so fun - it’s coming to life and it’s so cool to see it evolve! Happy Memorial Day, Miz!

    When you get done with the coloring, we need to see it on video instead of just pics, with you twirling around, zooming in, zooming out, etc. With a close-up, it’s hard to get a sense of exactly where everything is and how it all ties together.

    Looks great so far!

    Happy M-Day! The tat is coming along beautifully!! Is the Tornado just thrilled with it? I imagine she can’t stop looking/touching it:)

    I would adore a mission statement post.
    Since I responded friday I have been thinking about how I could lose my fear and take action.
    Love the tattoo!!

    Since it’s a bit of a slow day, I hope Mizfit doesn’t mind if I pick your brains today about British Abbreviations. I’ve already done a bit of googling to no avail.

    Yesterday at a garage sale, I bought a tea towel with an interesting design, and I actually found a picture of it:

    Now, what the heck does “BO.t of W.Jolly” mean? is W. Jolly the name of a ship? What is BO.t? Somebody’s initials? My ignorance is gnawing at me. Help!

    When on my San Fran. trip, seeing the field of white crosses at the Presidio military base was very moving, and an image that I was reminded of today :-(

    Hope your out enjoying your Memorial Day! Getting a lot of rain here… :-(

    Looks like your Saturday was nearly as interesting as mine! I can’t wait to read A Million & One Ways To Git Our Collective Selves Off Our Apprehensive Arses & Moving Toward At Least One Of Our Micro Or Mini Goals STAT Sans Fear Of Failing & With A Big Ass Mission Statement As A Road Map To Find Our Way.

    I am a huge fan of mini/micro goals to achieve long term success… I have a new “mini” goal to keep me motivated on my endeavors!

    Keep fighting the good fight!
