Well, the weekend is over. Oh goodness. Can’t we have another day? I need it, bad! You see, this weekend might have been all about Father’s day but it was also all about moving. Fortunately, my dad is the best and helped us move. I like to think it was my gift to him. A “my dad to the rescue” moment. Right? haha. Don’t worry, we did feed him steak on Sunday!
Anyway, back to the weekend of moving, and moving, and yes still moving. Moving up and down stairs, moving boxes into cars, moving furniture from storage, to trucks, to rooms, etc. MOVING! And when we weren’t moving we were playing, and when we were done playing, we were resting. Yes, this has been my definition of Fitfluential PROOF lately. Don’t know what #PROOF is? See here!
#PROOF:
I wore my Banjees Wrist Wallet to carry my keys, etc. I used my lower back and legs to lift boxes. I used my shoulders and arms to put things up and in it’s new place.
And then there was the PLAY kind of moving/movement #PROOF. Playing on our bikes and wearing plenty of sunscreen of course. Making each other laugh with funny faces. Definitely a good ab workout!
Let’s not forget the post swim PLAYING with our food… in the form of sprinkles and bluebell ice cream .
Moving, playing, and laughing were all good #PROOF’s from the weekend, but I’d have to say that my favorite of all was was the #POST #PROOF.
Resting, Recovering, Recharging.
Working out is definitely a passion and love of mine, but…….
being a LIVING MOVING #PROOF keeps me balanced, thankful, and well…. ….POOPED!
How do you LIVE your #PROOF?
Cheers,
LC
p.s.
Don’t forget about the Banjees wrist wallet giveaway GOOD till Wednesday!

I love your upbeat attitude even when things are up in the air and changing a lot. Not everyone can do that with a smile on their face.

LCCotter recently posted..This is how I #PROOFed
For our Father’s day celebration (celebrated a week early), we bought dad a grill and he had to cook us lunch on it! I think he secretlyo enjoyed it though. The man vs grill thing… Hope you’re all moved in? You know how much I hate moving and unpacking, so sending positive karma and prayers your way!
Laura @ LauraLivesLife recently posted..Female Athlete Triad
haha, i think he feels like a man that way though, right?
Urgh, they say moving is up there with the most stressful experiences in anyone’s life – hope you’ve recovered!
The face-pulling picture is so cute and I was intrigued by the Bluebell ice cream; I thought at first that was the flavour:-)
Eleanor@eatinglikeahorse recently posted..A Transatlantic giveaway
i’m still working on it! with frequent coffee, ice cream, going insane, breaks.
Your weekend #PROOF is my favorite type of PROOF. It’s lifetime PROOF. It’s proof that you’re strong and resilient (mentally and physically), and that you can endure anything. I’m glad the moving went well, and that you stopped to laugh and enjoy some ice cream along the way. That’s what a good life is all about!
Huge hugs to you, Lindsay! And please, please, please come visit me in DC any time! I’d seriously love to have you!!
Sara @ Nourish and Flourish recently posted..MIMM: Bright Colors and Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Cups
moving is still going, but man, you are right, it’s a mental and physical proof all the way. To endure and to find balance. A constant strive!
Sometimes you have to stop and drink the ice cream:)
Moving is so exhausting, I feel for you – wishing you an easy fun move.
and that sometimes is more like weekly. Yes?
Ahhh moving! I feel ya girl! I hope all is well and you are getting all settled. Finally the tv guys are coming here to set up our tv that has been sitting in our living room for three weeks. That’s the last of it though and we will finally be moved in as well. Ahhh a sigh of relief
Sarah recently posted..How To Fit It All In
how long did it take for your cable guy to show up? haha. TOO LONG! p.s. I need to get me one of your running skirts!
Good luck with the move!!! I know it’s a pain, but such a relief once it’s over. And you get to do all of the grocery re-stocking!
that is my absolute favorite part!! RESTOCK! YEA!
I have many ‘dad to the rescue’ moments! I’m not sure what I would do without him! I definitely wouldn’t have made it this far, that’s for sure!
Kelly @ Laughter, Strength, and Food recently posted..Birthdays and Holidays

You are like a reath of fresh air in the craziest of times. You’re always so calm and collected. Moving…… oh I’m not jealous of all that work. I do wish I could come over and help you though (with some wine of course).
Love ya friend! Thanks for being a little inspiration every day!
Kristin @ STUFT Mama recently posted..Tuesday Confessions and a Challenge (Mini Workout Video)
i’m calm and collected on here. There have been moments of pulling my hair out. But then i have a glass of wine. hehe. JK.. maybe. I’m waiting for you to come.
Moving is an UNBELIEVABLE pain. I am glad it is going well for you.
Cat @ Breakfast to Bed recently posted..Eating Dinosaurs and Acid Tripping Authors
i will be looking forward to the end of it. Hopefully soon! EEK!
You are SO right, girl. Sometimes I forget that the movement all day IS a workout – even if I don’t get my run in, I still moved, played, and walked all day with the little guy =)
Hope you are settling in…can’t wait to see pics of the new place!! =)
Michele @ nycrunningmama recently posted..How Do You Get Through a Long Run?
