Ballin'
So, we signed both girls up for ball. Softball for Ally and T-ball for Elli. They are both super excited. I am too, kinda. Although it will take a little schedule juggling for a while, it’s only a couple months and I do think the benefits outweigh the pain. By far.
It’s great exercise, and playing on a team teaches kids so much about life in general. Teamwork, compromise, commitment,...
Let's Talk About Pink
Loaded title, huh?
I’m talking about Pink, the singer. I’ve always liked her music and liked her as a person. Kinda no nonsense.
I was riding my bike Friday afternoon, which is most definitely my favorite form of exercise. I was told recently to find something you LIKE to do and do a lot of that. Don’t force yourself to walk on the treadmill for 30 min if you hate walking on...
Freaky Friday
So it’s January, right? Coming into work this morning it was 70 degrees. They are predicting severe thunderstorms to hit here in about an hour. WTF is going on??? Did I miss a couple months during my last acid trip?
Even though the weather is weird, it’s Friday up in here tho, which ALWAYS calls for a celebration here at W&ADL. So, without further adieu…
I am always so...
I'm
totally making egg “muffins” to have for breakfast in the mornings. Some have just ham and cheese (For Elli), some have mushrooms, ham, and cheese (For Ally) and some have spinach, mushrooms, ham and cheese (For me and Will.) Am I mighty accomodating or what?? I hope they turn out ok, i’ve never done them before and how about the friggin Food Lion (one of 2 grocery stores in the...

Tired
Hit up the gym for bodypump after work. Saw Will in passing as he went early in order to get the girls to youth group at church. Stopped at grocery store, then came home and started dinner while Will left to pick up the girls. All this shuffling resulted in us eating late as hell, which I HATE. But there was nothing that could give tonight. Had to get the gym in. Dinner was leftover pork carnita...
OMG
Took the bike out in this fabulous weather today. I thought it would be a good idea to ride from the house to the cemetery, instead of driving up there. The issue I have is that in order to get there I had to ride up an overpass over an interstate. My legs are screaming at me now. I had to stop and walk on the way back a bit on the way back up the hill because I lost my momentum when a car started...
Yep
I’m sore today. But its all good. I’ll go back.

Friday night
And the world is right..hit up the gym by myself and went to bodypump. It was fun but I haven’t been in so long I probably won’t be able to walk tomorrow. But that’s ok. Planning on some form of weight lifting 2x a week. And of course a little cardio. Turning over a new leaf, so to speak. Something I thought about while I was in there tonight, there are way too many mirrors in...

I was talking about the Biggest Loser. It has gone so downhill since it started I don’t know why I bother. It’s kinda like wrestling. Haha!
And seriously...
Who names a child Chism? I’m sorry, I’m totally judging.
Damn
Bob is harsh tonight. I kinda like it.
PSA
If you post something really sad or.awful and we ‘like’ it, I apologize in advance. We are not insensitive. I caught Elli today ‘pressing the little heart to make it turn red’ on the tumblr page I had left open today. My bad. I tried to explain to her why we don’t do that for everything, but she didn’t get it. So I will try to remember to shut er down from now...
Everyday I'm Tumbl'n....(in my best LMFAO voice)
So glad the rain finally stopped. I know we needed it, but when it rains for more than one day I get seasonal affective disorder. Not really, but you know what I mean.
Let’s see, I hit the treadmill yesterday evening for a quick run. Had a meeting to attend, but still wanted to get my cardio in for the day. Of course, when my time was limited, I felt like I could have gone 2 more...

today….ahhh….that’s more like it. I might survive winter if this keeps up.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

So.
What a week!
Bitches tryin to make me break a couple of my New Years Resolutions already. Work has been a killa this week. But I aint even mad. Because….
And since you know what day it is, it’s time for a leetle celebration:
Why is it that “short” weeks feel so.damn.long? This one has been neverending.
Some good news though, our friends Jay and Joell had a sweet...
I'm trying to do this more often than I have...
So here goes…
Hit the gym yesterday afternoon for some time on the treadmill. I met Amy there and for 30-40 minutes, we owned those treadmills like a boss. They have notes taped to the treadmills asking to limit time to 30 minutes. I just can’t get my mileage in in that amount of time, so as long as there are other treadmills available, I stay on until I’m ready to stop...
Yeah right! LOL!!!

You should agree to pace Runlong on his Outer Banks Ultra. Just sayin’. ;)

Ok, time to fess up. I’ve put 10 pounds back on in the last couple of months. I was officially 241.2 this morning. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; you can’t outrun/exercise a bad diet. I have continued to run , but my diet has had gone to shit. I feel like I’m back on the wagon. I’m not blaming it on the holidays, but now that they are behind...
