I tend to go overboard with everything in my life, especially with something new. I'll get all excited and involved, then lose interest. Sometimes I think I belong back in kindergarten.
Well, I decided that I want to get healthier. SO I have been trying to exercise. I have done pretty well. Out of 9 days, I didn't do anything last Monday and I'm not going to do anything today. I wanted to do something today. It's a nice day, FINALLY. But I can't, because I went overboard yesterday. I found this free class on line. Beach Body Boot Camp. I should have known, boot camp in the name and all, but hey, it was free and who doesn't like something for free! If its free, sign me up! SO I went.
First off, what was I thinking taking an 8am exercise class on a SATURDAY MORNING! Seriously. 8am? It it was a drive too! About 25 minutes to get to an exercise class! Wow, I sound motivated and healthy!
So, I take this 1 hour class that kills me. Last night when I was out in 3 inch heels, I knew it was trouble. I could barely stand up when I got out of bed this morning. I feel like I am 100! Stairs? YEAH, that's fun! I needed to bring out the trash and it took me 10 minutes to walk up and down the stairs! CRAZY!
I don't know what I was thinking.
But tomorrow I am determined to get back into it. I'm meeting my friend around the corner at 6:30am for our 2 mile walk. I hope I can do this and keep it up.
I'm still trying to work on my list. I did another things! :) Last night I saw Celtic Women. It was great! I had a really good time. I met my friend Mel and her and I had dinner at Legal Seafood, AMAZING meal. The weird guys next to us at the bar weren't too fun, but the bartender was taking care of us. Phil was pretty cool! Basically told them to leave us alone, but in a nice way. When one guy kept hitting on Mel, Phil said, "did you happen to see the rock on her finger?" It helped and they backed away a bit. Still don't get how guys think its ok to talk about their wife and kids, then hit on other women, but its the nature of the beast.
SO... yeah, one more theater thing down. I have been doing really well at getting outside of my comfort zone. Today with a meet up group we had Dim Sum. Never had it before. I think I'm good with having experienced it once. We didn't know what we were doing or eating. The people who worked there, came around with carts, and you picked what you wanted from them. They didn't speak English. It was a little tough. One thing they could say, "Chicken Feet". Literally. Looked like a fried foot of a chicken. We skipped that one. I think I might have a hard time with chicken fingers from now on!
I also emailed someone from a meet up group I joined and asked her if she wanted to get together for dinner one night this week. We met last week and just sort of clicked. It was nice to just have a great conversation with someone. I think the older you get, the harder it is to make new friends. So, we'll see where this goes.
Ok, I'm done rambling for now! Off to take more Advil!
