Projects and Energy

Happy Hannukah & Merry Christmas, friends! I can't believe what time of year it is already. I've had so many projects going, I haven't had a minute to think, or to plan today's blog. Then it came to me--!

Yesterday, we celebrated an 1862 Christmas. 150 years ago, war was raging in our country. Two sides, each convinced they were right and the other was wrong, and both with bad points and some good. It came together beautifully, and our entire program was presented "Unplugged." Despite that, due to the wonderful acoustics in our building, even people sitting way in the back could hear our softest singer clearly.

A project like that doesn't exist in a vacuum. Not everyone has clothes that will do for 1862 in their closet. I had 3 outfits to make, didn't get all the measurements in time, and, because of the way time was running out, I ended up sewing the last 3 days for up to 12 hours a day! A schedule like that is flat-out exhausting, worthy to be called "sweat shop" labor. I believe that, along with a lot of prayer, there's another reason I was able to do it:  Herbalife shakes.

Only a few days earlier, I had stopped having two shakes a day and gone back to "just" breakfast, having two regular meals for lunch and dinner. Only a little while after lunch and dinner, I was too fatigued to do anything. Realizing the sewing schedule I had ahead of me, I knew in order to get the work done, I'd have to rely on the shakes to give me energy. And it WORKED!

Did I still get tired? Yes. Did the fatigue incapacitate me? NO! Thanks to my Herbalife shakes, I was able to keep going, even long after I should have fallen over in a heap from exhaustion. The nutrition in the shakes, vitamins, and Cell Activator revitalized me so I could get the projects done enough to pass muster for the program.
