The Hiccup

So one of the major disadvantages to PCSing is the Hiccup. Yes, the Hiccup. The personal upset from your daily routine; physical exercise, diet and just plain old stress. Ever since we got here to El Paso, I have not power walked, belly danced, or participated in any of my abdominal or arm strength routines. I had hoped to at least stick to my wonderful diet, but even that proved to be too hard to do between the 18 hour car ride, lack of an organic whole foods store and my hubby. Oh yes, I will blame my hubby. My fried-food-eating, MSG-munching, processed-food-mealing, midnight-snacking, sugar-loving, chocoholic, pre-packaged-hungry-man-freezer-meal-stocking husband, who was away in training during the months that I converted our household into an organic and whole food friendly kitchen in an attempt to regain control of my health. It's been hard shopping since he's returned home to us.

Many people find it quite easy to flow back into a routine without missing a beat. I, unfortunately, am not so graceful. I can't seem to find any energy. Moving is just exhausting! I'm sure after ten years of this, I'll learn to roll with it and not miss a beat. But for now, I'm just a big hot mess!
