I don't know, seriously, how any woman can get do P90X's Chest and Back DVD. I sure as hell couldn't do all of the moves. The workout itself was fine, but besides the pull-ups (waiting for my pull-up bar to get here in the mail) and push-ups, there were only a few other moves in the workout. What?? I cannot do a push-up. A REAL one. I can only do so many on my knees at that, and in the DVD you do two "rotations" of about 3 or 4 different push-up variations. Ugh. Really?? Really.
Upper body strength is not my forte', so I wasn't that surprised, but for most of the DVD I just stood around. Sure, I would get down and do as many wimp push-ups as I could, but I felt like my precious workout time was wasted. I think from now on when this DVD comes up in the rotation of workout discs, I'll incorporate a run or 45 minutes on the elliptical. The Ab Ripper DVD was, of course, a good workout. Ab work is always a challenge.
Tomorrow is Plyometrics--I have high hopes for this one. Hoping it really gets me gasping for breathe. haha Yes, I'm serious! I love the burn.
Otherwise, my eating was great today--trying to get back into the swing of things, and so far so good. Excluding the teeny fact that I'm now craving cake and/or cookie batter with chocolate chips. BAH!! Funny, I didn't have this craving until "COULDN'T" have it. Go figure, right? Guess it also doesn't help I'm watching the history of chocolate on television. :-)
My time here in DC is winding down. I think the count is 6 weeks, 2 days. Please don't get me wrong. I like DC, getting great work experience here, but I miss Alabama, and I'm ready to settle down and unpack my LIFE! (For a few years anyway) I've been living out of a suitcase (or two) for 4.5 months now. Strange way of life. Brady (my Chihuahua) and I are ready to move into our new house :-) Did I tell you guys I will be a first-time home buyer come November?? All I can do is daydream and decorate the house in my head--I know exactly how I want to decorate (minus the guest bedroom...ANY IDEAS? Colors, decor, etc? Would love to hear what you guys think.)
Here are a few photos of the house. 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 1 car garage. I didn't get photos of the upstairs. Those and more will come in a few months!
Empty living room/Front Door
Little Backyard perfect for Brady and friends. Seller is putting up a privacy fence! WOO
Kitchen-- Paint is needed. Yellow, gotta gooooo
Living room. The seller furniture. Mine will be awesome ;-)
Finally, the front :-) PERFECT.
Have a great Sunday evening and an even better MONDAY MORNING!!
