Why, Mother Nature?

Guess what? It's snowing outside.

Yes. Snowing. It's October.

What gives, Mother Nature?

Hubby looks better but no dentist yet. I am going to push him to the dentist. I will carry him there if I have to.

Gym soon.

Dentist and 5k

What is it with men when they are sick? Why don't they want to go to the doctor? Or in my hubby's case the dentist? His face is all swollen and it's obvious he needs to see a dentist and he stays home from school because he's in so much pain and could call and find a dentist and yet...he doesn't.

Around a year ago this month he ended up in the emergency room because he wouldn't go to a doctor. And then he had to have surgery a few months later. He hadn't seen a doctor a very long time. Now I will be honest and mention I haven't seen a dentist in a few years myself because I hate them. And I have to have my wisdom teeth out and that scares me to death. Also my dentist moved to Vermont and I loved him and since then I haven't found a new one. But I told hubby if he goes, I will go. And I will get my darn wisdom teeth pulled.

Men. What is the deal?!

He IS looking better then he was when I came but still.

So I mentioned that a friend of mine ran her first 5K last weekend. She had a blast and I was so happy for her as I looked at her pictures on facebook. She looks fantastic, too. She suggested I run with her next year and I would love to. So I have decided to start the C25K on Saturday. 3 times a week for 20 minutes? I can do that the days I don't go to the gym. I'm on it. When I originally started running in 2004 I just sort of just started running for as long as I could and then walked. And then the next day I would run a little more and so on. Then I could be ready to run a 5K next year. Or more then one since I would love to run the Thanksgiving one, too.

Also, "Where the Wild Things Are"? I cannot wait to see this movie. My nephew commented me on facebook about how excited he was when he saw the commercial and about how he remembered me reading the book to him when we were kids. I do remember that. Nice to know he remembers that, too. I am a happy Aunt.

My exercise mojo!!

The gym was annoyingly busy tonight. Yuck. I hate that. But I chugged along and did my workout and was super glad that I did it. Woohoo!! 30 minutes of weights and 30 minutes of cardio.

Exercise mojo you have come back to me!! I was a little nervous but you did not let me down.

Things seem to finally being falling into place again and I'm happy about it. I think that next week I may go Monday night instead of Tuesday because I didn't like missing the first hour of "The Biggest Loser". I love that show too much.

I am nearly done with reading "Breaking Dawn". I am sad. Oh did I mention this is the second time I've read it? It's my favorite book in the "Twilight" series. I can't wait for the "New Moon" movie next month. Yes-I am one of those people.

Blogs to read. Then bed!! Wednesday tomorrow. Woohoo!

Back to the gym!!

Made it to the gym today for the first time in awhile. It felt good. Hopefully I found my mojo and things will continue to fall back in line. 30 minutes of weights and 30 minutes of cardio.

Totally wish I could have made it to the yard sale yesterday. My sister made $89 this time. Last time she made $100. The extra cash would have been nice. But at least my car is running again.

I need to get a pumpkin. I love Halloween. It's my favorite holiday!!

Terrible week

I've been having a rough week. Really rough week. And my head hasn't been in the game at all. With everything that has been going on my eating and exercise took a little turn for the worst. However, I still managed to lose 0.8 pounds which has dipped me into the 242's for the first time.

Did I also mention that I am PMSing?

I'm feeling better. I went to bed at 8pm on Wednesday night and slept straight through until my alarm went off and felt much better. I must have needed the sleep.

A friend of mine ran her first 5k today. I am waiting to hear her results. She has lost nearly 100 pounds. I am so proud of her. So proud.

The hubby is working on the car (again) today. I'm not even going to begin to talk about it right now because it will just depress me even more. I'm trying to think about happier things.

Sharing a car sucks. I know I've mentioned that before.

I was supposed to go down to my sisters for a tag sale today but that didn't happen. We could have used some extra money should I have sold anything. Again-trying to thing of better things.

Hopefully everyone is having a great Saturday!!

Sick

I do not feel good at all. All day I felt off and tonight I'm still feeling horrible. I didn't eat much all day. I had about 6 points total and that is so not like me. We even had a birthday party breakfast and I just wasn't into it at all. I couldn't wait to come home and rest.

My car is back. Looks like it was the thermostat in the car. Hubby stated the radiator is going to need to be replaced soon, too.

I'm going to lay down. Hopefully this isn't going to last because I need to get to the gym tomorrow!!
