sore

today is day 4 of working out. i am beginning to remember why i never worked out regularly before. i think the last time i did any kind of regular exercise was in high school when i played sports. yeah, it's been a while. i'm determined though. i've never been so determined to get in shape. so this better work...

get excited

teddy bears

you know what i don't like?

teddy bears.
no, i don't have an aversion to teddy bears in their purest form.i can appreciate this guy for what he is. i mean, i don't mind them as stuffed animals.
but when people take the teddy bear too far, you end up with things like this...
the ever popular teddy bear baby room. one lesson that can be learned
from the 80s is that teddy bears should never EVER be used as a design motif. period.

but some more extreme uses of the teddy bear include...
the teddy bear jacket? that's right folks. get yours now before winter hits.
i've got mine ordered already.
and then there's this...

somebody took their love for teddy bears so far as to try and become one. this picture honestly just made me laugh so hard that i had to include it. i mean, really...why?

ok i feel better.

adele and reminiscing

right now i'm

listening to adele

(i recommend this album if you don't already have it)

and reminiscing over some old photos.
here are a few. i know you may not know some of these people. indulge me.
it's ok to laugh at them.

high school...

high school sweethearts
college...
who's the guy in the red? oh wait that's my husband. isn't he handsome? i don't know those other weird guys...
well that was fun.

he loves me

last night, i may or may not have had a melt down. so today, my wonderful husband came home on his lunch break and brought me this beauty.

if you can't tell it's an amazing chocolate cupcake from sara sara bakery.
delicious. i couldn't even finish it.
yep. he loves me.

motivation

i feel like if i had these shoes, i would be more motivated to work out.
yeah...i'll go with that.

(sounds like a real reason to buy shoes right? i think so too)

the perfect equation

so i'm not a math teacher, but i do know that

this...
plus this...
plus this...

equals this...
yes i realize that i'm drinking coffee in the middle of the afternoon. it's not really because i need it, (although waking up three times a night every night is tiring) but more because i just LOVE it. it's something i'm trying to enjoy thoroughly before i begin my much needed diet and exercise program. that's right folks, for the first time ever i'm going to get into a workout routine. my personal trainer (aka my dad) is putting together a workout for me to start on and i couldn't be more excited!
crazy? maybe.
