OH what a DAY!!

OH, what a morning I had!! So, I leave my home to get to training around 4:20am...I am driving down the interstate and then at 4:32am BOOM, I have a blow out!!! My tire is shreaded!! FABULOUS RIGHT!?! Well, I don't have a phone at the moment as of it fell out of the window and got ran over on the interstate, so...moving on, I think ok it's freezing, windy etc... and I'm on the side of the interstate by Lamar but I know how to change a tire and if I hurry I won't be too late. So, I get everything out and then the jack doesn't work!!!! THIS IS NOT HAPPENING TO ME!! So, of course I start crying, I am freezing, I'm gonna be late, I don't have a phone, etc...this is terrible. So I wave my arms frantically for about 40 minutes and NO ONE STOPS to help me!! Come on Memphis! My flashers goin everything but finally a man who didn't even speak English too well stops and has a jack and changes my tire for me!! THank the LOrd!! So I run into training 20 minutes late and start rollin! I feel terrible because I hate being late! I worked my butt off this morning, or tried to anyway and actually in abs held my feet 6 inches the longest to be leader for next week! I was so proud of myself! I was so proud of my team this morning also. THey worked so hard and no one even cared how sore they were! I would love to be the leader of a group like the Food Fighters. I think everyone is their own leader though, everyone is so encouraging and though I had a terrible morning, after training I actually felt better:) I also stayed after to make up for being late and did the wonderful stair master! Oh, and of course the day I come in crying and late, Latty is there video-taping training! So I know I looked Awesome for that one! Well, I am also doing very well on my diet. I drink water all day and only eat what's on the sheet they gave us. I am proud of myself for that because that is probably my biggest challenge. I also am excited and anxious about the weigh-in in the morning. I haven't weighed myself since Saturday(the day we started) and I'm very curious to what that darn scale says! Well, on with the day and in hopes to soon not be in pain just from standing up from the soreness!!
