Ever have one of those days where you wonder where the time went? That was me today.
Day started with an appointment with Trainer Guy this morning. He reviewed my form on the upper body stuff first. He had some minor form corrections, but generally gave me positive feedback. Next we spent time on lower body stuff. I showed him my one legged squats. Those are difficult, but apparently look good. He added regular squats and stiff legged deadlifts. Aye carumba! Tough stuff, but I'm up for the challenge.
Came home and did some yoga with one of my new DVDs. I've actually been working through those DVDs almost every day for a week. In another week or so, I'll write a detailed post about all of that.
Showered and jumped in the car. I needed to drive downtown to pick up my bling. What? I forgot to mention that? Oh yeah.
Well, apparently the event on Sunday was small enough that I actually placed in the women's division for the 5K. Which means the "woman" with the chihuahua was actually a "youth female" And I still think the chihuahua cheated.
Next, I was off for some beautification at the salon. I hadn't had my hair color freshened up since September and it was really bugging me. It looks much better now, if I do say so myself.
Then a quick late lunch so I could head over to friends' house to see their new dogs. Cute!!
Rushed home after that to get Daughter so we could go b'day shopping for Son who turns 17 on Tuesday. Mission accomplished. Whew.
Back home to finally get the Christmas tree out of the house. After Christmas, I couldn't get our tree back into the box, so I ordered a storage bag for it. Meanwhile, the tree partly in the box and partly out of the box has been sitting in the great room. The storage bag finally arrived yesterday, so I was able to get it into the garage and out of the house. Yay.
Now I'm sitting on the couch for basically the first time all day. Ahhhh.
Not for long though. It's just about time to make dinner.
Sigh.
busy day! Congrats on placing in the 5k, that's great! Have a great weekend :D

Freaking' awesome hardware!! Congratulations! That PT and strength has training sure paid off in your running.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I understand about the chihuahua, I have been beat by a Jack Russel Terrier. Bitch has four legs and weighs 8 pounds! Where is the challenge in moving that body for 9 miles?!
I should have mentioned...all of this in a day off work. I can't imagine how I would get it all done without the extra day!
