TGIF! Oh, wait, nevermind...

On one hand, it's Friday and Fridays are always liberating just knowing the weekend starts TODAY (or at least when work is done today).  On the other hand, I know that I'm working full days on Saturday and Sunday as well so really there is no weekend in my future.  Today was day 4 of bootcamp for me.  I skipped yesterday because pollen is waging a war with my head.  I went today but I was at the back of the pack for everything.  Coach even called me out on it when he saw me coming in last from our interval runs.  So I'm thankful for a weekend break from bootcamp even if my regular job is still calling my name!

I've got to get ready for work and get some stuff done.  Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

Day 2 - Bootcamp

Whew!  I'm tired.  Yesterday when I got home from camp I made a protein smoothie, got ready for work and was out the door on Cloud 9.  I'm telling you there was an endorphin party going on in my head.  For the majority of the day I was giddy as all get out and cracking jokes left and right.  I've always wondered about that "runners high" people claim to get but that I've never experienced.  If that was what I was feeling yesterday, I may have to start marathon training.

This morning at bootcamp I upgraded to 6lb weights.  Doesn't seem like much does it?  WELL IT IS!  I can feel every muscle in my body today and although I'm sore, I love feeling like they're all getting used.  Use it or Lose it my Papa used to say.  I didn't have the same energy today, I think I really need to get to bed earlier.  I'm curious to see how my energy levels fluctuate over this month.  Went to the store to stock up on some healthy foods (hey if you're gonna go at, might as well go at it all the way!)

Well....I'm gonna go vacuum, do a little work, and head to bed.  Let's hope I can move in the morning!

Peace Love & Crawfish

Boot Camp Here I Come

I'm nervous....I'm starting a women's bootcamp tomorrow morning at.....5:30AM!  I really should be in bed already but this weekend just flew by.  I spent all Friday afternoon at the car place taking care of my 90k+ mileage Honda followed by a pedicure as a reward (does there really need to be a reason for such a reward?)  Saturday, the man and I drove down to my cousin's for some family time.  It was so beautiful outside this weekend we were hardly in the house but to sleep.  We spread out 27lbs of crawfish to share with the neighbors and sat outside until our eyes were closing.  This morning we started out lazy but joined more family in the afternoon for a Lake Safari.  The water was so choppy, we weren't sure we would make it.  We had an excellent captain commandeering the waves however and minus a few splashes and tosses, we remained upright and got to enjoy just being on the water again.  I'm so ready for summertime on the lake!

I've got all my workout clothes laid out, my new water bottle being washed and I'm about to crawl in for the night.  I hope you all had as wonderful a weekend as I did.  Wish me luck in the morning....

Peace, love, and CRAWFISH!
