Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

Mushy surprise

When the Mr came home, he handed me the mail and there was a card from him.  Then he told me to close my eyes.  When I opened them, this little guy was sitting in front of me...

It is so cute and it has special meaning to us because it was our dog's favorite toy.  We got her a similar one when she was a puppy and replaced it every time the squeaker got punctured or it was in it's last legs after many mend jobs.  We both laughed that she would be going NUTS over it and would try to take it from me or we'd have to buy her one even though it's 1/3 of her body weight.

It was very sweet and I love getting romantic cards and/or gifts for no reason.  It makes me feel gooey inside...and not because I'm fat.

What romantic thing has your honey done for you lately?  What was the most romantic thing they've done for you?

  1. I just had to get that. I saw it in the window the other day and knew that it was perfect. I know he is more of a valentine's thing but who needs valentine's day to say I love you? I'm glad you like it and I know our doggy would have gone bat*hit over that thing and it's really funny just to think about.

    1. Thank you so much. It's so cute and I know the dog would've definitely gone batshit over it! I think even when we're 90 years old we'll see a hoggy and think of her!

  3. Stuff for no reason is the best!! My hubby will give me a card for no reason, asks regularly if I need help, and he always helps around the house. I think all of those things are VERY romatic!

  4. My hubs will buy me fun socks (I'm obsessed) out of the blue and will come home with flowers and beanie babies for me. He cooks dinner often, which is so nice when I work later. The sweetest thing he's done lately is he knew I was very stressed out about the snow this past weekend so he got up early and ran all the errands I had AND did all the grocery shopping. I was stunned when he came walking through the door proud as a peacock. He said he wanted me to have a good Sunday with no stress so he took care of everything that needed to be done outside the house. It was wonderful!
