That argument with yourself...

After a long clinical day (I am a nursing student), my plan was to go to the gym to do an ab workout class. I've been to the class before, and really felt it the next day. My gym clothes were in the car, all I had to do was drive there, change quickly, and jump in. But I talked myself out of it :-/

I got a lot of exercise at the hospital today. Almost the self-required 10,000 steps, and I knew I could get above it doing chores this evening in between studying.

I've got two tests this week, and felt like I needed to get home to study ASAP, but that is not an uncommon occurrence. I need to learn to prioritize exercise as well as academics.

I told myself I didn't want to be ultra-sore for my 1st day attempting total care of 3 patients tomorrow. But really, sore abs would not get in the way of a nursing shift. That was a made up excuse.

Next time (Wednesday) I will do better.
