Good Evening (Night?) All,
Well, right when I was leaving for my hair appt the salon called to say my gal was going home and was very sick. So, I left anyway and went to the grocery store to pick up a few things. I made this steamed kale salad tonight. I steamed kale and red onions for just a few minutes then tossed with pine nuts, tomatillas, sun dried tomatoes, kalamta (sp?) olives and fresh garlic. It was very good. Just think, you could have gone on to become a instructor and making DVD's!!!
Rachel, you and DH are just rocking and rolling on that job aren't you? Way to go! I know I am totally becoming a gym rat! In fact I almost said that last night so we must have all been thinking that about me! LOL! I am really having fun there and the spinning is my absolute FAVORITE! I love my cardio coaches, but the energy in this class is unsurpassed! So you are a good swimmer too like Kim? I am a terrible swimmer (took lessons a few years ago). That is another thing I wanted to take advantage of at this gym - take swimming lessons!
Cendrine, isn't TBL great?! Now you know why Kim and I weren't too fond of Melissa! Actually this season I like most everyone except I'm kind of bleh about Michael but I like him better than I did. Right now Sunshine is my favorite but like Kim, I really like Koli and Sam. You are doing fantastic on your workouts! I'm very proud of you! Oh and Cendrine, if you get here you PLAN on going to the gym with me! I'll put you on my VIP list so you can come for free! We'll go have FUN FUN FUN!!!
Kim, I had to laugh about ME! I know isn't that shocker? You think it's going to be easy and NOT! Yeah I know if I was doing water aerobics only it wouldn't be enough for me, but should be great after spinning! If nothing else, just something different! I'm trying to test out everything and every class they offer! (I want to be sure and get my money's worth!) Glad you're taking advantage of your recovery week and enjoying yourself! You've worked very hard and deserve it! Okay, tell the truth...how was Dairy Queen? LOL! Did you start the March rotation today?
Oh and I forgot to tell you guys, I get 2 free personal training sessions. So this gal called me yesterday and I am meeting with her Monday afternoon. It'll be interesting to see how they assess me and it'll be fun to hear what they think I should be doing.
Oh and my gosh, did you guys see the pictures of the plume for that volcano? WOW! Cendrine, you may be going to Switzerland by ship!
Last thing, yep Rachel, the spinning instructor knows my name after I went and complimented him on the class and told him how he inspired me yadda yadda...so now he picks on me! But in a good way! You guys I wish you could take this class with me...it's very hard but it's a hoot!
Okay enough talk for tonight. Time to go read! HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
