Coming Soon.....

Ahhh majestic Monday! Today held the promise of a workout and Classic Skating! Because daniielle gets to have the 2 week long birthday festivities.... and I am not complaining! We have had a lot of fun and the numerous parties and playing just dance about 19 times, good game. I actually think I should call today moron Monday because well today I was a moron. Not that it wasn't bad enough having to use the razor scooter at the skating rink, well because I am just too special to use roller blades.

So moron Monday made its peak today when I went to pick up the chicken nuggets from high school. Settled in my car, they get in, and I am hungry. I convinced my self that betos would be a "healthy" alternative to fast food. So there I was driving toward the new rancheritos where hogi yogi was in PG. I pull in go around to the drive thru. I rolled the window down and was talking to the chicken nuggets. A few moments go by and I thought "hmmm. I should have been greeted by now or something?! So Max yells "yo girl, my girl Hilary is ready to order..... and nothing. I thought gee whizz how rude we are done here! I pull around and there on the front window a big giant sign reads....COMING SOON! Ah haha I have not laughed that hard in my life. I thougth Elle and Robyn were going to pee their pants. So I went and got orange chicken, also a healthy alterantive.

Todays thought comes by inspiration through my inspiration! I would like you to think exactly what inspires you. No... really think! What brings you to a perfect center? What calms you so much, that for those few seconds you are perfectly content? What makes you feel truly inspired?

I have been saddened a few times this week through a few stories via facebook, TV, blogs. I hear a constant story. When I stop drinking soda, then I will start my diet. When I start eating healthy, then I will quit smoking, When I make a little more money, I will start to pay my debt down. Dut dut dut dut dut. You know what those are called my friend? excuses! How do I know, because I am the queen of them. I actually think most of us have a doctorite in excuses. Why do we make excuses? It is because we have become so comfortable with our imperfect selves that we feel change is not needed. Deep down while we are making the excuses we think hey, everyone knows I am fat, an alcoholic, smoker, lazy etc. And they have come to accept that. So why change? But also deep down, we know that we need to change, that is why we make the excuses!! It is a viscious cycle. So what do you do?

Remember how I asked you to think about what inspires you? Think again. What inspired Hilary Kay? My family, my future husband and children, a picture of a perfect body running through my mind and music! I have actively been thinking of my inspiration in the last few weeks and that is all I have needed. I have not needed an excuse! It is because I am going for a change instead of making an excuse for that change! I challenge you to make that change! Think of what inspires you. Is it worth sacrificing your inspirations for those excuses. You always, always have someone hoping for you to make that big change. The reward of change is well worth it! So say to yourself, is it worth sacrificing those inspirations for our own selfishness? What inspires you....
