It’s a sign…..

So, did you know i was a shy person? I am. So i have been marinating on the idea of going to the gym. You know all the cool kids do it. But i am shy. nervous. i know so unlike me but you know, all summer i have been thinking i need to go to the gym. Then I got my new job, my doctor said to me i was to stressed out and i needed to do something about that. I went on to tell him you know i have this new job and i am going to go to the gym. Well i have been giving excuses everyday, i had to work later, or not tonight i should get home to the kids or i have nothing to wear or what will people think i hate when a gym is crowded.

today the school group left at 1:00pm and i had been pysching myself up for this. I was determined to at least go check it out. I looked on line for the local gyms, the good old stand by the YMCA and then this cycling gym and then, Mystic muscle and fitness.

Mystic muscle and fitness was were i went to get info. I talked to the guy, a bit intimidated but he was nice. No one was in the gym so I left. I drove home, thinking I can do this. I went back and forth, what do i wear, do i go today, do i sign up today, do i go tomorrow, who can i get to come with me….oh the questions….

I get home, okay i am ready to do this, now i just need to find some shorts and a t-shirt. I look in the laundry, no shorts, hmmm must be a sign, I am not going. Walk around some more, trip over my sneakers, oh god a sign, i have to go. Just do it. alright, look for the shorts, found them. Ready to go, just doing it. Call a friend for moral support and to see if i can convince her to come with me. Nope she wouldnt go. Crap another sign dont go. No no I am going, i am going to stop at work pick up my iPod and then i am going. get to work, angry red message light is on, it is a sign. listen to messages call people back, getting later, i am not going, i will do it tomorrow. Friend calls back tells me to just do it and i will feel great!
