Smelling the Roses

When you have dieted down this much it’s hard to get up and do an hour’s cardio before eating anything but it has to be done. To deal with the “mental tiredness” side of it, those that know me will tell you that I always find a positive way to get past that. The silver lining that I found this Easter weekend was to walk around a big lake while everyone else was still in bed. By doing this I was rewarded by seeing some real life nature close up. As you can see from the picture, these baby ducklings were not at all threatened by me as I was the only person anywhere near them, it was a lovely feeling. Like Tom Platz said, you have to “stop and smell the roses”, if you can do it a week out from a show, then you must be doing things right.
