Hey guys. I am sorry I was not able to get on here for the last few days. I have been way too busy and exhausted by the time I had a minute to myself. I have kept up with my workouts, but it has been tough. DS has a tournament this weekend upstate (2.5 hours away). We did not have anyone to watch Baxter, so I stayed home Friday night. I visited my mom and then came home with my younger DS and watched a movie with him. Saturday we got up really early, drove all the way upstate to watch DS's games. Then we came home for the dog. We were stuck in 4 hours of traffic on the way home
I was supposed to go up again today because they had a chance to go to the finals, but I did not. I wasn't going to spend another day in the car with that traffic. It turns out, they won their games today and they are playing the final game right now as I type this. I hope they win.
I had my post observation meeting on Friday. Everything went very well. I should get the write up in another week or two, but I think I am getting all or mostly Highly Effectives. That is a relief. My observer also let the "cat out of the bag" by telling me the superintendent wants all formal observations and walkthroughs done by May 15th. My principal does the walkthroughs, so now I know she is coming, lol.
Even though I have been enjoying the Xtrain SandS rotation, I am not getting results. I am definitely getting stronger and more muscular, but the weight is not coming off. I decided that the rotation does not fit the goal I am trying to accomplish. Instead for May and June I am going to do a rotation with circuits, cardio and metabolic workouts with some total body workouts peppered in. I am trying to get lean and slim for the cruise. I also have to get serious about my eating, which I know. . . I just cannot seem to find the motivation to stick with it, especially this time of year with DS having so many all day tournaments and what not.
Today's workout was Low Impact Circuit.
Belinda- I watched the movie Secret Life of Pets with my boys and there was a dog with the wheels and harness like Brawler. I told them it was a real thing for dogs and tried to show them your video on facebook, but I could not find it anywhere. How is Brawler doing? I wish I had gone for the Deluxe package now. I am not buying those extra dvds at the cost they are solo.
Deb- I love my hot yoga Wednesdays. I always feel that it gets me through the week. This week we are going to the Yankee game Wednesday night, which means I won't be able to go to hot yoga. DH got the tickets for free and he thought I was crazy when I said I couldn't go because of hot yoga, lol. He convinced me to go. The friend that gave us the tickets is going too and he can comp our food for his business, so we don't even have to spend money on food. How can I pass that up?
Karategirl- It was nice to have you on here. You don't have to feel like checking in every day, but stick your head in every once in awhile
. good luck with STS. It's an awesome program.
