Keeping (a little too...) Busy!

Yesterday I had one of my best workouts with Chris and I felt this great surge of motivation to come everyday and keep the forward motion. I want to start seeing a loss again and that's only going to happen with better eating and MORE exercise. HOWEVER...life keeps getting in the way! I know, it probably sounds like an excuse, but here's what Thurs-Sunday looks like:

Thursday, 5:30am workout with Chris, work 7am to 5 pm, drive to Seattle for a GREAT performance by Straight No Chaser at McCaw Hall with Mikki. They are an amazing acapella group...I tried to insert a link but for some reason I'm not able to do it. Not sure why the link icon isn't working! Google them...it's worth it! "Straight No Chaser - 12 days of Christmas". Anyway, bedtime after the concert was about midnight.

Friday, woke at 4:00 am with a migraine (grrr...but thankful for Maxalt!), worked my day job til noon then lunch with Mikki and JaiCie (thank you for leaving the house when you didn't really want to JaiCie!) then off to job #2 until 11 pm tonight. Just under two hours to go but who's counting! I should get to bed by 12:30 after I get home from work and take a shower.

Saturday - wake up at 5:30am to head north to Olympia...pick up my friend Dick then he, Mikki and I are headed to Seattle where we'll board "The Snow Train" to Leavenworth. It's supposed to be an amazing train ride with a spectacular tree lighting once we arrive in Leavenworth. For those of you from somewhere other than Washington State, Leavenworth is a quaint Bavarian town in the Cascade mountains. It's beautiful this time of year and it's like a little Christmas village! I'll post pictures! We won't get back to Seattle until 10:30 pm so I won't get home until after midnight again!



Sunday - I work from 8 to 12 then home to do what I love! Quilting in my studio. SIGH...Monday morning to the gym to repeat the workout Chris gave me because he wanted me to do it at least once before I see him again Tuesday morning..

HRUMPH....see what I mean about life getting in the way? I keep fantasiznig about having an in home gym (not a crappy quality - but a GOOD treadmill, good mat, bosu ball and free weights (which I have some now). Oooh...remodel idea! I should convert my back deck (it's BIG) to an enclosed sunroom type thing with all that kind of stuff!....dreaming.

ANYWAY...I don't typically do a lot of "going out" type of stuff, it just happens that I've got two things in 3 days. My biggest goal right now is to NOT gain during the holidays.
