Dear Lovely Readers,
I am still alive. I have not been kid-napped by my students or lost in the boxes left from Friday's Fall Festival.
This weekend was a mix of crazy, fun, and nasty! Friday was fun but Saturday our weather was nasty. After an adventure to the YMCA to workout and a crazy time in Wal-mart buying groceries I decided to stay home for the remainder of Saturday. I just enjoyed some lovely tootie-roll pops that were meant for kids (or me!). On Sunday (following my dye and HFCS high) I decided to clean, clean, clean and begin our next painting project. Clearly I was insane!
Last night my Mom and I had a painting party. And boy was it a party! The fumes of Primer mixed with shut doors and little air movement caused me to get dizzy and feel sick. I even tripped off a ladder. Definitely not my best moment! I wish I could blame it on the alcohol but no it was the paint. I spent the rest of the evening trying to make the room stop spinning. This was too much of a reminder of my 21st birthday. I'm sad to think of the brain-cells killed last night.
Now all summer I painted. I painted the dining room, kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom and hall. But the difference was the whole house was opened. Now that we're living there I decided to shut the room off... big mistake! Lesson learned.
My eating is still on track. I am going strong on Level 2 of the 30DS. Walking push-ups aren't nearly as hard (to me) as regular push-ups. But those military presses with kicks are no joke! Have I told you yet that I'm doing this Challenge with 8 lb weights? Yep, I am. It's one of my goals and I am rocking it!
Love to all!
Meredith

I HATED those walking pushups. Yuck! The worst for me in 30DS was in Level 1 I think, the squats with the V raise or whatever it was. Killed my shoulders!
The Shred is the devil.... but I love it! After this half marathon, I think I'm going to do a 30-day shred challenge...
I agree - I preferred the walking pushups to the standard ones, any day! No idea why...maybe because they weren't all jampacked together??
Good for you on doing the 30DS. It's hard!
Glad you posted! I've been wondering where you've been. I'm glad you survived the painting fumes.. keep those windows open from now on!
Whoo, way to go on the Shred! I should bring that with me along with my laptop for out of town workouts over the holidays. :)
Sorry about the paint fumes - that's the worst feeling!
I hate painting. Mostly because I'm not very good at it.
Glad the shred is going well! I've done it before and honestly hated it. But I've been thinking about giving it another try. Good to hear you've been kicking it's butt! =)
You are a beast! 8 pounds! Uh mazing!
Yay, glad you're back! Somehow Walmart trips always turn into something crazy, I try to avoid it all together nowadays.
Hope you're recovered from the fumes!
Holy crap! 8 lbs for military presses?! You kick butt!
I hope you are OK from your fall : /
I LOL'd when you couldn't blame it on the aaaaaalcohol!
Why thank you!
