MANTRA MONDAY: Drink More Water
~ Drink More Water ~
OK, I know this sounds fairly simple…right? Then WHY do the majority of us forget to do this? Over the last few weeks we have had such CRAZY weather here in Colorado. After watching the news last night, I found out it is going to be hot this week. Like Vegas weather HOT.
As you know, I am a Jazzercise instructor…so not only do I burn a lot of calories, but I sweat…a LOT -- especially when it is over 90 degrees outside. No matter how high or low your air conditioning is when you are working out…IT. GETS. HOT! Having had some experience with de-hydration, I am going to make a conscience effort to drink 120 oz of water a day (on the days that I am working out).
That means I have to drink 7 of these…
I found this cool little survey online that tells you based off of your weight, activity level and a few other items how much water you should be drinking.
Water Calculator Quiz
So I know that this is not a huge goal…but the key to happiness is small achievable goals that make you feel better. So bottoms up! (BTW – I have had 3 of my ‘glasses’ of water only 4 more to go!)

MANTRA MONDAY: Patience
~ Patience ~
I hate waiting…HATE it. I am an instant gratification type of girl…I always have been. And LOTS of things right now are trying my patience. I hate depending on other people for a decision on my life, it drives me batty.
Trying to find a place to rent has been awful. So many people say one thing and then come back with another. Or I am either the 2nd or 3rd person in line, or they want a larger (ridiculous amount of money) for a pet deposit. I am just amazed at what a nightmare this has been! Sheesh!
So every day, I wake up and try to put my ‘patience’ pants on and know that things will turn out, I won’t end up on the street. *sigh* This has not been fun. This week, I am focusing on being patient. People don’t make decisions as quickly as I do, a lot of people involve emotion and feelings and that can take longer to decipher.
So, I am in the hurry up and wait mode...hoping that the perfect place will come to me and I can move to the next chapter of my life.
