I’d say this is kind of a rehash—but so is my life.Β And, if you skim read carefully, you’ll see it’s not a repost.
My life is simply Groundhog’s Day.
A Day in the Life of MizFit:
Immediately after waking I head here (yes it’s the crack of dawn. no I dont set an alarm. Im a firm believer in the notion if Im not up-at-crack & excited for the day I must need more sleep. Im always up-at-crack)
Once Ive grabbed that I head here and work for a couple of hours:
Why YES! My desk *is* stunningly clutter-free (wink) & kind of blah but I have an amazing mural to my left which totally sparks my creativity:
Next, when there’s about 30 minutes or so left before Ren Man departs for the day, I stop working & head over to the cardio center for a workout:
After that things take a turn for the predictable.
We may hit the playground.
Or hula hoop.
Or do some carpet roller skating if it’s already hothot outside (Id like to blame the carpet on the Tornado– but sadly it’s my arse which tends to spontaneously slam to the ground. We started skating 2 weeks ago & before that it had been 18 years since I’d skated. FYI it’s NOT like riding a bike—-at least for me.)
Some days we’ll head here:
and do this until they yell at us:
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nur4VFlbZ8c
(alas, Im not joking about the yellage. Im a great role model!)
Then it’s play time again:
And yes. These are oft worn OUTSIDE the domicile as well:
Some days we take photos merely as hints for Ren Man as to what we’re desiring:
And if it’s raining:
We’ll head back inside to play:
We’re happier when it’s sunny and we can take the PRINCESS (insert *eyeroll* here) ball outdoors:
Often I’ll let the Torndao practice her photography on a sweaty, messy me:
Sometimes my day then begs calls for this:
Though I do try valiantly (if by ‘valiantly’ you mean 3 or so times per week—which I do) to opt for this (my beloved frozen MetRx shake):
Then, if it’s Shabbat like today, we’d head off to get flowers for the Ren Man:
Some days we terrorize the local Barnes & Noble for aΒ bit…
if only you could hear her screaming: DANCE MAMA DANCE as she took my picture…
Until it’s FINALLY time to start winding down for the day:
Then the nighttimeroutineGLAM ensues (dinner, TornadoRebelling, bath, TornadoRebelling, books read, TornadoRebelling) until she’s asleep.
Then it’s back to this:
And usually some time spent with this (sans Tornado):
Until this comes home (& we hang until bed):
Love the B&N dancing π Now that’s a rockin’ day…
Love the photographing what you desire bit, hope it works!
Cute photos! My 3 year old son stood beside me as I scrolled down and commented on each one. Alas, he has a tendency to mumble so I’m not sure what he was saying. All I could make out was that he wants your daughter to come over to play, and he kept shouting, “Look! Look, Mommy!” while pointing at your tattooed leg. LOL!
So cute. Thanks for sharing your day with us. Man, is the Tiny Dictator adorable!
HEY I think I workout at your gym!!!
Lifetime Fitness?
oh my gosh- this post is so cute. I want to spend a day with you and that adorable tornado
I LOVE being able to see more about you and what you do all day.
More of these Fridays please π
Those glasses are hilarious, Miz.
Thanks for letting us peek into your world.
WHY YES!
It is Lifetime Fitness down south.
is that where you workout, Nan?
come find me π
Do people comment to you alot about your tattoo?
Love, love, love seeing your spirit in action.
I also love the coffee cup next to your computer…that’s so…YOU!
That mural is fantastic!
Your little girl is just precious. And your day looks full of interesting adventures and coffee. Just like mine!
Love the photo tours of the Mizfit life! Still don’t see how you get SO much awesome blogging and social media outreach done without having all ALL the pictures be of the computer. You rock!
(And could the Tornado be any more adorable???!!!)
Bahaha, I love the signs! Those photos are too cute, especially the Barnes and Noble one π
LOVED seeing how you spend your days! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Wanna come for a visit, bring the Tornado and hang with the cows for a change of pace?! Perchance you could make my desk look like yours while you’re here…..:)
Cool post, love the glasses!
I am with Crabby.
How do you juggle everything??
(That’s not rhetorical. I need help LOL)
Seriously, sounds like you have a wonderful life! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Lather rinse repeat
You sure do cram a lot of living in your day, lady. I don’t know how you do it.
Like Sarah I see a multitude of post ideas here if you need them π
How can we elevate our heartrate in Barnes and Noble?
Any tips for that?
A how-to for the pipe cleaner glasses?
Love this post, MizFit.
Have a fun weekend.
Great post! Loved spending the day with you! π Great pic of you and the Tornado at Barnes & Noble.
Have a great day and a great weekend! π
HeeHee! I loved this post!!! Love the pictures and love the tornado π
My most favorite picture (since you asked) is the one of both (one of both?) at BN sitting together. It’s beautiful.
And then, how does that tiny little cartoon man help out again? Does he stop his feet like he is Rumplestiltskin?
This was awesome π Love that you do this. I think we all need to do this a little more!
Is that a cowboy boot pencil holder?!
too lovely for words!!!! x
Sounds like a busy day! Have a great weekend, Miz!
Hi Carla!
Your day looks like so much fun! Thank you for sharing
Loved the post. And those glasses are the best.
What a day! The best part is you have a record of it. It will slip by in an instant!
The play-doh glasses are a “must have” and a “must wear in public”!
From one mama to another I KNOW that day is tiring π
Fun and tiring.
Have a great weekend.
Love it!!! Love every minute of it!!
love it! My son (home sick today) loved seeing y’all. You’ve inspired me once again …..now where is my camera battery charger??
Aww looks like your days are packed with happiness. And oh my goodness the travizzle storyline is ADORABLE!!
fast thoughts as now you all know precisely what Im up to today π
big shoutout to number THIRTY FIVE as that’s the Amazing Miss Hillary whom the Tornado adores and whos holding the sign asking about YOU ALL working out!
π <– that’s what this post did to my face!
Dance and play and dance all day!
Sounds like fun, please can I stay?
Oh wait and dang it, frappity frup,
I don’t think I could ever keep up!
You look like you’re having so much fun all day with the Tornado (at least, before the rebelling starts). Thank you for not being one of those moms I see in Costco yelling at their child for being silly. Kids ARE silly. Happy weekend!
Ah, CUTE…Thanks for hte share…nice to take a walk through a day in the life of MizFit! π
Does the Tornado have her own cartoon yet?
I don’t set my alarm… I pretty much wake up after I’ve had my eight hours sleep. Usually that is by dawn. Dawn comes rather late right now! If I fail to wake up, I have Tablet, the alarm clock kitty to do the job.
Then I grab a glass of water and head to my computer for a little bit. Not for long today though, the sun is out. Just waiting for it to warm up a tad.
hhmm….is it sad that I read your post twice. I’m stalkerish like that and am just that interested in your life! Very interesting to get a day in the life of ya! Have a great weekend lady!
I got happy just reading this!!! I love the pics & I love posts like this because I feel like I am climbing in there & being a kid with you! I have trouble with that “being a kid thing” so thank you for my FUN FRIDAY! So cute.. both of you!
BTW…would love the recipe for your shake π
What time do you usually go to bed to get up at the crack of dawn?
Im SOUND asleep by 10 (insert mockery here) and the shake pic should have a link below—does that work for you? it’s working here (now anyway :))
I love, love love this blog! You are very inspiring and fun!
I’m new here in the Bloggermania World and so happy to have found you! I will for sure be back!
Aloha,
Kiki
This post just made my whole day! Loved seeing pics of you and the Tornado! Oh how I wish I lived by you. We would totally be dancing with you in B&N and wearing pipe cleaner glasses on the town. And the GLAM nighttime routine? Hahahahh!
I love that you take photos in your day…
You remind me that I am not crazy at all (*ahem*) and remind me to keep having fun.
π
I loved reading about a day in your life, and have I told you that you inspired me to switch to decaf? I realized it wasn’t so much the coffee I loved, but that morning ritual of having a hot beverage – just me and my coffee. Don’t miss the caffeine at all.
Hope you have a great weekend Miz!
I love those glasses π hilarious!
Love it. You and your daughter are amazing together–it makes me realize how lucky I was as a kid.
And since the princess phase is clearly not ending anytime soon, have you seen this shirt? http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts-apparel/kids/bad7/
Pretty fabulous.
Oh what fun!!
Ashley I LOVE THAT tee & am ordering one today (and I adore thinkgeek.com as well)! Thanks.
Damn you do a lot in one day.
And damn I am strangely jealous.
Have a good weekend!
can I please spend a day with you????
Ok you MUST do thse posts more often as it make me GRIN.
Can you do a video of you making the shake?
Thanks!
Looks like fun.
I miss those days of easy laughter and goofiness…they go so fast so enjoy!
We’re trying to keep the “laughter” and “play” in our home although it’s a wee bit challenging with the “TEEN-ITIS” that has hit us!
Have a GREAT weekend
Nikki – from Canada
Hanging out a B&N makes some of the best afternoons. Hunni and I did that yesterday π
Thanks for sharing your day…its fun to see how others live.
Loved reading a day in the life. Your daughter is absolutely beautiful! Hope you are having a nice weekend.
Awesome “a day in the life” photos! Especially those funky new-fangled glasses you have! Miz…these pictures speak volumes to the message of how you live your life – and it’s so filled with goodness and fun! Woohoo!!
These were such joyful, wonderful pictures, Carla! Your daughter is adorable and I think sheβs very lucky to have a mom whoβs not afraid to dance inside Barnes & Noble. π
I love, love, love the peek at your daily schedule. I kinda already knew it a bit (oh twitter!) but it was so nice to see pics of activities. Such fun you guys have! π
Sounds fab… all that TT time π SOOOO freakin fun!
Can I just say…….. I wish you lived in my neighborhood.
I’d love to hang out with you! Fun finds you!
Duh…yeah, it’s working π Thanks Doll!
I can’t believe we both refer to Groundhog Day I swear I was no trying to hijack your wit and humor π Although it is more than worthy of hi-jacking!
I love your pictures and it looks like fun. Love the princess stuff. Around here there is NONE -NONE it is all boy.
If you have to re-live each day at least it is a wonderful replay over and over.
