Got Milk?

I sit here at work; sipping on my 3 o'clock coffee with a big "got milk?" written on top of my left hand. Why? Because I bought Abbey's milk during my lunch break and I must NOT forget it. A lot of people could look at this and think I'm crazy; I mean..how hard is it to remember that? It is, trust me; especially when I just storm out of here without looking back as soon as 4:30 hits. Maybe is juvenile, I'm sure I could find other ways of reminding myself that I must take the damn milk with me, maybe I should set up a reminder on my phone that'll go on exactly at 4:29 today but you know what? That's not me, this is me. It works for me and that's that, with my luck the reminder will be set at am and not pm and I'll leave the milk here.
I didn't go out for a walk last night; I was super tired and had no motivation. I tried to excuse it by telling Ryan that I need sports bras (which is true) but that's not the reason, the reason is I just didn't feel like it and went to sleep at 9:30 pm instead. I really do enjoy walking though, it helps me to listen to music and sweat my ass off. It makes me feel good and sexy when I walk home with a sweaty chest. So, I'm going tonight. I cannot fall into laziness anymore, I dont even do it to lose weight anymore, I do it because it's good for me. I don't get on my case and I give myself credit that I'm still doing this diet shit and that I am able to put on my running shoes after a day of work, Why? Well, this is how it goes:
7:30 am Wake up and get everyone else up. I Change, change Abbey, brush her teeth, make her milk and get the lunches out of the fridge, push her shoes on and look for kitty (her stuffed animal) get her bowl of gold fish crackers and wait for Ry.
8:10 am Leave house.
8:17 Drop Ry off at the train station.
8:40 Drop Abbey off at daycare.
9:00 am Arrive at work and continue to do little tasks here and there but more of less do nothing, aside from eating, answering emails, phone calls, filling out forms, washing the coffee pot, getting the mail, etc.
4:30 pm Leave work, yaiii.
4:40 Pick up Abbey from daycare (I love this part)
5:15 Arrive home, I play with Abbey and read her books and play with puzzles.
6:00 pm Put Elmo on and let Abbey have some alone time while I go to the kitchen. I wash dishes and start cooking.
6:45 Finish cooking.
6:55 Ry gets home and we eat dinner.
7:20 Put all dishes in sink and pack our lunches for the next day.
7:30 Bathe Abbey, then we usually play with her with the balloon or Ry becomes the "creepy monster" that chases Abbey around.
8:00 Give Abbey her bottle/ continue the games but more mellow now.
8:45 Ry changes Abbey and I get her crib and water bottle ready and well as my walking clothes.
8:50 Bed time Story
9:00 Good night, Abbey. *kiss kiss*
9:05 Out for a run/walk.
9:45 pm Come home and shower.
10:00 pm Spend some time with Ry.
10:30/45 Good Night World.

So, yea...I might be tired but it's doable, I've done it before and this is my life, this is who I am now and I wouldn't change anything about it. I like having a full schedule of things to do, I like having a little one I need to bathe and give her kitty to. I just need to stop being so lazy aboout this jogging thing; I will walk tonight even if I have to literally kick my own ass Fight Club style.
