Things I am jazzed about

Can you tell I’ve been busy at night enjoying our glorious weather that seems to be never-ending?  Instead of trying new recipes, taking pictures or talking about my workouts we’ve been celebrating our anniversary, meeting friends downtown for dinner, going on long walks and eating Chipotle.  Ahhh the life.  And the best part, it looksContinue Reading

Technology problems & Strawberry salads

It has taken me all night to download photos off my camera.  I’m annoyed, frustrated and exhausted.  I now have lion on my mac instead of whatever was there before and somehow the Cannon software I’ve always used to import my photos isn’t compatible.  And no matter how much google research I do, I can’tContinue Reading

Happy Monday + Grilled sweet potatoes

Now that Monday’s pretty much over is it bad that I’m already counting down to Friday? I honestly have no big plans but I think the fact that summer is almost over makes me appreciate it more.  I realized I can’t remember the last time I actually sat outside in my Adirondack chair drinking coffeeContinue Reading

Horrible Shoes

If my feet could talk they would be screaming obscenities at me for what I just put them through.  A 30 minute round-trip walk of pain.  I was walking back from a meeting and just about the time I took this picture I was seriously considering taking them off and walking the rest of theContinue Reading

Sweat is fat crying

And there were plenty of tears shed in my gym tonight. But before we get to my sweaty workout, let’s rewind a bit.  To this morning.  When my gym bag was all packed up and ready to head out the door at 6:30 for an early morning workout.  Except when the alarm went off ChrisContinue Reading

I have jello legs

My inner thighs are killing me.  Is that even appropriate to say out loud?  I mean like I’m hobbling down the hall.  Awkward. Why you ask? Well, on Monday I went to a pilates reformer class and only one other person showed up so it was basically like having a private lesson.  We flew throughContinue Reading

Thank you Jillian

So Tuesday night I did Jillian Michaels’ killer buns and thighs.  I’ve done that DVD a couple of times, usually level 1 so I switched it up and tried level 2.  It was definitely harder – hello 1 legged squats! and then there were a couple lunge combos I couldn’t do because of my kneesContinue Reading

Update – Stretch for 7 challenge

So Bess, over at Bess be Fit is hosting the stretch for 7 challenge. Basically for 7 days you’re challenged to stretch for at least 20 minutes.  I am bad at stretching.  I always sort of half-ass it after a workout and while I always stretch a little bit before a run it’s not asContinue Reading

Midweek roundup – Food + fitness

This is what I spent my day looking at yesterday.  That, my friends, is my front room.  Where a window is supposed to go.  A few weeks ago, you’ll remember that I was also working from home, dealing with Home Depot and leaking windows. And they PROMISED me that they were fixing it.  But theyContinue Reading

25′s workout circuit

25′s workout circuit

Phew, it is finally Friday.  I don’t know about you but at least for Chris and I, Friday has taken forever to get here.  I swear I woke up Wednesday and Thursday thinking it was Friday.  Sheesh.  We both had super crazy weeks last week so maybe that’s why?  Regardless, glad it’s finally here. I’mContinue Reading
