Monday
How was your weekend?
What are you plans for the week? Anyone have anything good coming up?
Re: Monday
Weekend was good. Ran some errands and hung out with my sisters on Saturday. Yesterday we had brunch with some friends to celebrate a birthday, then went to some open houses (just looking for fun, nothing serious), then four hours of volleyball at night. I'm tired this morning.
ETA: Oh, I forgot the "coming up" part of the question. No big plans this week as far as I can remember. Volleyball playoffs tonight, that's about it.
Ugh, Monday. Heh.
Saturday, we drove out to Springfield to go out to lunch with my mom for her birthday. My brother and his fiance ended up coming with us, so we ended up at the pizza place we all like instead of the nicer restaurant I'd planned (they weren't really dressed for the restaurant, unfortunately, because they hadn't initially planned to go). Then my mom did her overly-sensitive thing, and we got in a stupid fight, and, and it was super awesome. It was fine by the time we left, but I was annoyed about it the rest of the weekend.
Also, what was up with the weather on Saturday? It was sunny when we left Belmont, but by the time we hit Worcester it was snowing like crazy! It stopped when we got to Springfield and none of it stuck, but I'm pretty sure we had at least three seasons on our drive there. My husband and I had joked that us buying a car was going to be the impetus for actual winter, but we didn't mean it as a challenge!
Yesterday, we ran errands in the morning and then did a little cleaning and a little relaxing. We made the mistake of trying to do our grocery shopping at Whole Foods at Fresh Pond in the morning - so not smart. So, so not smart. Frankly, we're a little scarred, heh.
This week will be the first one since before Christmas that I'm in the office five whole days. It's going to be insufferable. Work is crazy busy for the next few weeks, and it seems my faculty and participants are hell-bent to make me crazy, so I see lots and lots of wine in my future.
Rock, did your H go to volleyball with you?
We spent most of the weekend dealing with the skunking.
H is away this week, and DS and I have nothing much planned. I did order p90x because I have been doing work out videos lately when DS is sleeping rather than making it to the gym. Jillian Michaels probaly doesn't have me in good enough shape for it, even though I can kick butt at 30DS. Probably a waste of $100 but whatever.
No, DH didn't end up going to volleyball last night. Wrist was hurting him and with league playoffs tonight he decided not to chance it. Good thing, too, because both I and my friend who went with me are pretty sore today.
I'm so impressed with your weight loss and workout commitment. I really need to be better about that but I'm so tired and hungry when I get home at night that I end up stuffing my face and sitting around/digesting for the rest of the night instead
I think the fact that I've been working out is one of the reasons I have been losing weight more slowly, but I definitely see more of a difference in myself. My sister gave me a bunch of 7FAM, True Religion and Lucky brand jeans that don't fit her anymore, so at least I have a new (to me) denim wardrobe!
In case anyone is interested, since I know a bunch of you did the 30DS, I have been doing this the past week or so and I like it. It's not much harder than the 30DS but it's about twice as long and is tons of weights. http://www.amazon.com/Get-Ripped-Jari-Love-Slim/dp/B000FBFUEK/ref=pd_bxgy_mov_img_b
I'll have to do P90X updates for you all. It'll keep me motivated haha
LadyE that is awesome about your new wardrobe!
I have to start exercising. I had this vision (when I was pregnant) of doing workout videos while BabyCrushing napped. Never did I imagine that she would only nap in the car or in her stroller. So I do get some walking in when the weather is good, but I need to tone up. She is finally sleeping better at night so I am hoping this will lead to good naps soon.
My weekend was good. I did a ton of erranding Saturday. Sunday my in-laws visited. This week is back to my regular schedule of playgroups! I am very happy about this.
