Where have I been?

Well, it's happened again.. a lack of blog posts... oops.

 

I've been super busy doing the following things:

 

Working out! I've stuck to my workout schedule that I posted last time to a T. I am so proud of myself...and my eating habits have gotten back under control which gives me this feeling of happiness and accomplishment. It's my year people.

I did this last night... looked sorta like  her but a lot fatter and my leg did NOT go that high/perfect. Hurts so good.

 

Making new friends! During a fabulous dog park date with my home girl Olive I met a new friend Terra and after 2 weeks of friend dating I think we have decided to make it official. I love meeting new people...life is full of such cool ones after all and Terra is definitely my soul sister when it comes to our hatred of all things scary and the aggravation that the people on the Walking Dead don't call the "walkers" Zombies... HELLO they know what a damn Zombie is.

 

Winning a promo contest at work! My job takes up a big part of my life and I don't really share it on here but I'm obsessed with it. I really enjoy my job and especially the fact that they come out with promos from time to time where you can win prizes aka money. This is my first promo and I am  currently in first place and I WILL win it all out of the whole company. We are a global company with over 100 people (just the other ISR's) that I'm competing against so it's a pretty big deal... I even got a call from the head boss the other day and the owner of the entire company is very impressed. WTF. I'm dying with happiness. It's just such a good feeling of accomplishment for me and I'm really proud of myself. Excuse me for tooting my own horn. Oh, one last toot... during the call I got from the boss she also told me that I am going to be featured in our company newsletter for the first ever "Meet the Insider" article. HOLY CRAP. It's a big deal. I am still in awe and I just can't express how thankful I am for all of my blessings which all go to the big guy in the sky.... Thank you, my cup runneth over.

 

Enjoying some Chad Knight shows! My husband is so talented. I get blown away daily when he opens that beautiful mouth to sing... you amaze me.

 

And that pretty much catches you guys up! Tonight we are going to have a little adventure so I promise to take lots of pictures and to update on the weekend by Monday. Have a great weekend everyone!

 

 

What's your current FAVORITE workout?

- I'm obsessed with Body Works + Abs class currently. I can't walk for 2 days after but it's amazing! Squats, lunges, abs, & torture. All in a days work.



For those who never accomplish goals...

I know you didn't think by that title that I was going to tell you what I weigh and then tell you what I'm going to weigh at the end of they year.... haha you're in the wrong place.

 

What I will tell you is this:

 

I'm finally not sick anymore! I have a new workout schedule & I'm back to eating clean during the week. What does this mean? That this is going to be an amazing year. I don't really have a number in mind (maybe a "just less than" number) to weigh but I do have a feeling that I'm chasing...feeling healthy. Let's just be honest... I'm not healthy. I mean I am, but obviously I still make bad choices or I just simply wouldn't look like I do. I love myself. I'm not the biggest I have ever been and I'm not starting from zero but it's to the point in my life where it's time to finish the race. That's what I feel like I've been in since 2006 - that's a 7 year journey that has been wonderful but I still haven't accomplished this goal and it's time to mark it off my list.
 I used to feel like I never accomplished goals...lately I've been counting all of these goals I have been finishing and I realized something. Sometimes, it just takes time to accomplish your goal. For one reason or another you just might not be ready to cross the finish line on whatever your goal is. For me... it's time. I feel like I am at the perfect moment in my life and it is what I'm focused on the most. Want to see my plans?

I worked really hard on that Chart. You're welcome.
DTS class is a weights/abs/strength class fyi.

It feels so good to be back in the swing of things! As you'll note there is less running on there but I plan on doing a mile before/after classes on Tues/Weds so I can keep up that good habit while getting into some old favorites. I've been in a rut and I want a more balanced workout schedule which will keep my body working different parts every week. This schedule is going to have a 2 month test run and then I will decide whats working and what I want to do more of. I've completed this week so far and I'm loving it. Yoga was last night and it was absolutely fabulous. I missed stretching and moving my body which has led me to have weak wrists! Time to build those puppies back up and get in to pretzel position... I've worked out 3 times since I was released from the doctors orders and I'm already a happier person. I get to feeling awful when I don't get to move around for a LONG time and it feels good to be back!

I'll update you guys from time to time on how I'm doing but I hope that whatever goal you're ready to finish up gets accomplished this year. You can do it!

 

 



A year of Sickness

I sure hope that the rest of the year is nothing like how the beginning has started! I have been sick EVERY SINGLE DAY so far this year!!! I can't breath and I'm to the point where I'm about to throw a fit. You know how babies get when they are sick... all screamy, whiny, fussy, irritable, and bitchy. That's me.

 

I think the worst of it has passed (a really bad sinus infection) and I'm hoping that today I am snotting up the rest of this junk OUT of my body. I have only been out of my house for 3 hours total since Friday and I'm going STIR CRAZY!

 

I'm just going to say that I'm getting all the crappy days out of my way for the rest of the year...I've got things to do people and I have NO TIME for sickness!  



I can't breath.

I just really don't understand how one person can have this much snot and crap in their heads... WHERE is all this coming from!?
