Day three!


Today very well could be one of the best days I have had in a very long time! It was just one of those days that everything seemed to go as exactly as it should have. It was a very much needed Momma and son day.

I woke up and the bed, the sheets, the sunlight, the everything just invited me to stay right there in bed and enjoy stretching and snoozing... it felt so good. Then I got up headed off to the gym after doing some dishes and got in some great treadmill time. Got home and snuggled on the couch with my bubba, Odin and watched Ax men! Got some laundry done and went to put in Shoulders and Arms for P90X and guess what the DVD did not work..... No big deal. I have the work and the routine laid out in front of me and with the help of you tube was able to do the work out in full! Did a quick AB ripper, which is on to days schedule. I will go into that in a minute!

Then Odin and I were off to The Ups Store. We surprised Monie with a visit! She was surprised. We wanted to Geocache with her today. Turns out there was a chache 200ft away from her store, right outside her door! So cool!!!! Then we followed her to a park that is on the way home from her work and we all found two more! Odin was so pumped about finding three today, that when we got to Monie's house, he was ready to go search for some more! Turns out we were about 1.20 miles away from one so Odin, myself and Bono decided to go find it! Well we got up the street and realzed that I left behind my backpack that has everything in it. So I ran back and just got my car and had the dog and Odin jump in and we drove to it..... I know I know we are lazy.. but it was getting cold and dark quick so what we drove... Anyway glad we did! We got there and I ended up having to carry Bono over a creek! Hahahaha I know it sounds stupid but it was really really really funny! Odin was in good spirits all day and I just loved every minute of today! He even tasted a banana today!

The work out today was a very extreme work out. My arms are going to be killing me tomorrow! I used 5, 8 and 10lbs in today's workout! Some point this week I will be getting a 12 or 15lbs to step in up a notch or as Tony would say Bring it! For the record, I still can not believe how cheesy he is! The ab work out after words if fantastic! It is only 16 minutes and worth doing because it so effective! In 16 minutes you get well over 300 ab/core "moves" in! Whoa that is a lot! The great thing is, yes that is a lot and yes you feel like your doing ab work BUT you don't feel like your doing 300 core moves!

I still feel like I am not getting a "workout" in. Only because I as such a cardio junkie that if I am not sweating my but off and feeling as if I can't run for one more second, or jump one more time or if I slap the floor I may just fall threw the floor, don't feel as if I am getting in a work out. I am going to ignore these feelings and keep on trucking forward. I just have to get use to it.... P90X is very different then what I am use to. I was asked how Shaun T and Tony were compared to each other and I said, there is no way to com pair and I said something on the lines of... It's is like comparing olympic swimming to Olympic diving, just because they both are jump into a pool, they are no way the same!

Ok so my "bucket List" thus far is to go back to The San Juan Islands, Bike Across America, and to hike the Application trail. What is next.... I think I would love to surf! In fact I know I would love it.... just got to get around to learning how to.... so there we go. I want to learn how to surf!
