'One more'

Today I'm exhausted. I've got work locked down tight and will be heading across town for some kickboxing and grappling training. I'm looking forward to it but dreading it at the same time.
One more.

My run last night started well, my best friend and his dog ran with me. About 2 miles into the run my pace dropped and I was struggling mentally for the next mile. We dropped down onto a different trail and everything was golden again, we zoomed forward.
One more.

The worst paycheck in 3-4 years is heading my way tomorrow. I'm still thankful for it but it's frustrating that accounting keeps dropping expenses into the wrong months. This has happened for two months in a row and for some reason they don't understand to account for an expense in the correct month so the expenses even out.
One more.

Thanksgiving and Christmas at the cabin but I'm not sure I can spend 3 days alone with Father in-law when everyone else heads back to work. I think he will be bored out of his mind and I'll be busy doing projects, working out, dog hiking or reading. That's what I would like to be doing anyhow but instead I'll be worried about him and what he is doing.
One more.

Thrive (the rebranded Shelf Reliance) has all of their food storage on sale for 50% off retail for a week following black Friday. I'm going to float an order on my credit card for a month but we should be able to add a lot to our pantry as planned.
One more.
One more.
One more step, workout, stride, day, sprint, stair, sit-up, get-up, holiday, paycheck, work day, sarcastic comment, etc.

No matter what happens it only takes 'one more' to keep progressing. Not everyone has the capacity for one more, for never quit, for don't give up, for don't stop, etc. Some days it's the only thing that keeps us going.
