Celebration Weekend Recap
It's Monday again. How do they keep coming faster? Did you get a lot done this weekend or spend it getting into mischief? We started off the weekend right with a Friday night viewing of Spaceballs to honor the newly released news of Spaceballs 2 . It was kind of funny because all I could hear during the movie were the times my dad laughed at certain parts when we went to see it in theaters. I'm glad I have a few good memories like that of him. Several weeks ago, the Mr saw some travel article about an old school donut shop he wanted to go to sometime. (We're suckers for the old school places over the decorate a crappy cake donut places.) This was how he wanted to celebrate his well earned victory on his test last Thursday. We were on the road pretty early. I knew it was supposed to rain in the morning but we didn't care for the dubious looking clouds. It went from ominous to sheeting rain: It got to 5 ft visibility at one poin...
I love the "top o' the hour" idea! I may have to join you on that. Maybe set up in my calendar to remind me every hour. I am with ya all the way sending you support vibes for zip-lining!!!! I know you can do this, it's attainable. Keep on truckin home skillet!
ReplyDeleteZip-lining in Maui would be so amazing!! I did it last summer in the redwoods in northern CA. It was such an amazing experience made even more amazing by the fact that I had actually gotten myself well enough under the 250 weight limit. I was concerned they were going to make me step on a scale though!
ReplyDeleteTop o the hour bursts sound like a great idea. I'd give it a go if my coworkers on the other side of my half cube wall wouldn't think I was a weirdo.
I think the hourly bursts are a great idea! It seems the harder I work out the day before, the lazier I get the next morning because I'm sore or just thinking I don't need to work that hard. Have fun and good luck with your goal!
ReplyDeleteI was late to the party and couldn't read yesterday's blog till today, but I think you know exactly what you are doing, what you want to do, and will give 110% effort to get there. Whether or not everything else works out is just not in the control box. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGREAT decision! I love how you said, we can't make our bodies do anymore than we already ask of it. We do ask a lot of our bodies, we get mad at it more than we are happy with it that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see those pictures!!!
I think the hourly bursts sound great! I'll work on some too, maybe not the same ones as you or change them up every hour or so. I've been using a timer to force me to take a break from my computer every hour or so, so this can easily be worked in and every little bit helps!
ReplyDeleteI saw your question yesterday and it sounds like you're going to do what's best for you. (I always knew you would!) :) IMHO you consistently make really good decisions for you and the Mr, jointly I'm sure. Good Luck!
I like the top of the hour idea, I'm pretty sure my students would lobby to have me institutionalized if they caught me though. I may try it over summer break though.
ReplyDeleteI think you made the right call on "naming the baby". Not that you need to be told that. You'll zipline yet, and I'm looking forward to the pictures.
I love this idea, too. Now that I'm working again, I'm chained to my computer chair a lot more (180 legal size pages to be transcribed for a trial within the next 10 days). I'll be Top-of-the-houring it with you!
ReplyDeleteI have no doubts at all that you will be zipping through the forest!
ReplyDeleteI want ti to be as much of a thrill as you hope!
I like your moving every hour bit. I try to do more of that at work too.
You feel that surge of goodness??? Yeah...that's right - the first batch of good vibes got ya! :-)
