Ellen Barrett has kicked my ass, again. Different DVD this time - Self Magazine's Bikini Ready Fast. Oh, man. Could definitely not do all the reps of everything, especially with weights in my hands, but kept pushing and was able to do most of it, including the "bonus" ab workout. Oh, and I also did Sara Ivanhoe's 20-Minute Yoga Makeover: Weight Loss. And she killed me too. I love how my body feels today. I might get a bit sore... Ellen definitely worked some muscles that have been, um, dormant to say the least.
Went for a walk... but a bit shorter than planned. The Boston weather forecasters were somehow wrong again. Grrr. The sun never materialized over the city, so the temps never got up where they were supposed to be. It's warm enough... but not lovely.
The down side of my day? With no adequate or rational explanation from myself... and really, no silly explanation either, because there just is no excuse... I have once again NOT worked on my job apps. This means that for all my excitement on Monday over finding three EdAsst positions open, and preparing my resume, I have still not applied. Again, I am asking myself WTF?!
At the same time, I know I could do it right now. But Kevin's headed off in the morning for a two-week "man-trip" to the west coast. So instead of doing the apps, I'm going over there to hang out. Hmm... Not the most productive behavior. But I am saying right now... as out loud as a blog can get: I WILL COMPLETE AND SUBMIT THEM ON FRIDAY! I am going to Kevin's on that condition. So there, me. Take that.
On another note - Krissie, I also need more gym clothes! Sports bras, especially. I have one! How did that happen? Oh, and I'm making plans for when I WILL join the YMCA. No more excuses on that front either. As soon as my financial rearrangement all goes through, I will join. I will go to classses. I will learn how to use the machines in the gym.
BTW - I think it's awesome that you can hang out with your mom and do stuff... including go to the gym together. My mom would never. In fact, hanging out one on one with her is nearly impossible, and if it happens it's either me rambling on and on, or silence. God, I'm glad I'll have Kevin with me when I visit this summer. And that she'll be preoccupied with her new grandchild. Heh.
Anyway, I'm using long-distance telepathy to send you girls my love and encouragement in whatever you're hoping to accomplish today! TTFN!
